Only 87 and anyone under 25 should be safe

Created by: edeangel84
Team: 2024-25 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 3, 2024
Published: Mar. 4, 2024
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
We all know Geno and Tanger are also safe but in all honesty they shouldn’t be. A fire sale should happen and if FSG has a shred of hockey sense it’s time to unload. 87 is the main reason tickets are still selling, not 71 or 58.

    Jarry won't be traded. Goalies are too important, just ask NJ or Edmonton.

    Also, that Edmonton trade could remove Jarry and it would be fair. Campbell is on his way to buy-out city

    Honestly if they can somehow dump Smith and Rakell without retention, I think I'd keep Pettersson(maybe Jarry) and go for it again next year. You'd have so much cap space to actually make this a good team I think. I wouldn't be giving up any more pricks/prospects - but there's some solid free agent guys out there this year

    Is this the Leonardo DiCaprio school of GM-ing? Only keep anyone under 25 yrs old.

    I don’t see anyone worth a crap signing here. Jake and Reinhart are the only really good forwards out there. No one else would move the needle.

    Yeah they're obviously the top tier. I just think there's a decent amount of middle 6 guys that could give good depth to a team that has clearly struggled in that regard. But obviously it depends on what those guys could be signed for.
