Trades
1.
PIT
  1. 2024 1st round pick (PIT)
SJS
  1. 2025 1st round pick (PIT)
2.
PIT
  1. Barron, Justin [RFA Rights]
  2. Struble, Jayden
  3. 2024 1st round pick (WPG)
  4. 2024 3rd round pick (MIN)
Additional Details:
With the 6th overall pick, MTL selects LW Cole Eiserman. MTL makes this trade to A) clear logjam on defense and B) get the 8th overall pick to draft either RW Liam Greentree or RD Carter Yakemchuk
MTL
  1. 2024 1st round pick (PIT)
  2. 2024 4th round pick (PIT)
3.
PIT
  1. Foote, Nolan [RFA Rights]
  2. Gritsyuk, Arseni [Reserve List]
  3. 2024 1st round pick (NJD)
Additional Details:
NJD miss playoffs and trade the 13th overall pick in a deal for a starting goalie
NJD
  1. Jarry, Tristan
  2. 2024 2nd round pick (PHI)
Additional Details:
*the later of the two 2nd round picks
4.
PIT
NJD
    So with the MTL and NJD trade, PIT owns the #13 overall pick and WPG 1st round pick (anywhere from #21-26), plus acquiring young NHL players in Barron and Struble, along with prospects Foote and Gritsyuk.

    These two deals helps Dubas "stock pile" while trying to build core the core.
    5.
    PIT
    1. 2024 3rd round pick (VGK)
    CGY
    1. Graves, Ryan ($1,000,000 retained)
    6.
    PIT
    1. Dubois, Pierre-Luc
    2. Kaliyev, Arthur [RFA Rights]
    3. 2026 5th round pick (LAK)
    Additional Details:
    I know everyone says PLD isn't good and he's stubborn etc. But he has all the talent in the world, and he's a young guy I would love to take a gamble on. Surrounding him with legends like Crosby, Malkin, and fellow Quebecer Letang, should hopefully get him right.
    LAK
    1. Eller, Lars
    2. Smith, Reilly ($2,500,000 retained)
    3. 2024 3rd round pick (VGK)
    4. 2026 3rd round pick (PIT)
    Additional Details:
    LAK clear out $3.55M in cap space while getting a 3C plus the veteran middle six winger they were linked to at the deadline. Both are on expiring deals which will help LAK in the long term with guys coming up soon.
    7.
    PIT
    1. Kartye, Tye
    2. Tanev, Brandon
    Additional Details:
    PIT brings back Tanev to make the money work plus bring back something the locker room lost when he was drafted to SEA.
    SEA
    1. Poulin, Samuel [RFA Rights]
    2. Puustinen, Valtteri [RFA Rights]
    3. Rakell, Rickard
    4. 2025 4th round pick (PIT)
    Additional Details:
    SEA gets a middle six winger that fits their system better than PIT's right now. He is playing hurt (which he should sit but won't) so a long offseason to recover will be great. Francis also gets two young NHL players that would slot perfectly in their middle six, as he is good at finding talent needing a change / more playing time.
    8.
    PIT
    1. 2025 6th round pick (NSH)

    Jarry is NOT worth all that, might be worth a second

    Pass from LA, PLD has not looked so bad since the coaching change, besides if Blake makes any more bad moves he is likely gone.

    NJD would be better off trading 2024 1st for Ullmark and even that is too much.

    You guys will still have a 2nd round pick (which would be from 40-48 range).

    I think Blake needs a much better return on Dubois or he might lose his job given all he gave up to get him. Also don't think Dubois is nearly as talented as you think. He's a capable 2nd liner, but he's not some young unestablished player with major upside potential either. Definitely needs to play in the top 6 to be worth his cap hit. Jersey probably isn't giving up their 1st for a solid and unspectacular goalie like Jarry. Especially as Jarry has a very strong history of fading as the season goes on either through play declining and/or injury. Not really what a contender wants to see.

    Future considerations for me and most PIT fans. Just want the contract cleared. He's a HORRIBLE fit in Sullivan's system.

    NJD -- Pick 13 + Foote (whatever he is) + Grit (2nd round value) for Jarry (starting goalie) + 2nd round pick (40-48 range). Can drop Foote if that makes you guys feel better. Jarry is on a good contract that fits perfectly with the core

    Jarry has been getting **** on lately by the teams poor defensive structure. Thats more on Sullivan and coaching than anything.

    The team defense wasn't good earlier in the season and Jarry was stealing games regularly. I know he's not an elite goalie, but that trend is consistent over his career at this point.

    We don't have a 2nd, that's going in the SJS trade for Meier

    Jarry has a similar value to Vanacek and he got traded for a not too impressive package. I truly cannot see anyone paying more than a 2nd or 3rd for him. You are off your rocker if you think he will get 13th overall alone. The only goalies in the league getting that kind of package in return is Saros, Hellabuck, Markstrom, Shesty, Sorokin, and maybe Demko (But all of those goalies are not going anywhere other than maybe Markstrom or very very very maybe Saros)

    Again in this deal NJD is trading back and getting a #1 gaolie. If the Pens werent sending a 2nd back, I can see what you mean.

    I definitely don't want to move a top 15 people for a goalie I am luke warm at best on. There are other goalies that are comparable and shouldn't be as expensive. What goalie has ever gotten a top 15 pick ever?

    The second doesn't justify that much though.I could see Jarry for Foote and like a 6th. Or a second alone. But you are not close here

    I’m a big Barron fan but I would probably do this. Maybe replace him with Calgary’s first and an extra Ld (Harris, Trudeau or Engstrom)
