I think Pgh would make that trade. Maybe a late 2nd though.
Kassian is an overpaid bottom 6, but Hextall and Burke want size and toughness. And to draft “their type of players into the organization”. And free up cap space.
IMO, it would be stupid. Zucker is a top 6, 20 plus goal scorer. He’s fast and pesky too.
But he’s not the type of player to come to Sid or Guentzel’s defense. Or any teammates really. Not Burke and Hextall’s type player.
But IMO, top 6, 20 plus goal scorers just don’t grow on trees. U can’t go out and just sign another. Pens have been trying to find another forever. And paid a lot for Zucker.
He had 12 points in 15 games last season b4 he got injured. And was injured and wasn’t healthy this season either.
Never got into a routine and chemistry with any line and never even got hot. And still had 18 points(9 goals) in 38 games(still .5 PPG). And he was never fully healthy.
Again, top 6, 20 plus goal scorers, just don’t grow on trees. I see people adding draft picks for Seattle to take Zucker. That’s ridiculous.
If Blueger, ZAR, Tanev and Zucker were left unprotected. U 100% take Zucker. He’s just a different caliber of player. And Blueger, ZAR, and Tanev are great. I’m a fan.
But even with an extended role, you arnt getting much more from them. Blueger and ZAR are both 27 years old. Not prospects anymore. You arnt getting much more from them than they produced the last 2 seasons. And they have played great. Great two-way players. They have over produced.
But let’s not kid ourselfs. They arnt or will never be a top 6, or score 20 plus goals in a season. Definitely not 33 goals like Zucker has.
And Zucker turns 29 In January. Will be 29 all next season. And is signed just two more years after, until he is 31.
If Seattle drafts him and decides to trade him at the Trade deadline and retain 2M for 2 years. He’s a huge asset. They will get a good return. More than Blueger or ZAR or Tanev would. And again, not knocking them, I’m a fan!!
But to see people saying “Pens add for Seattle to take Zucker” is just ludicrous. How many legit top 6 forwards are gonna be left unprotected??
Anyways. I think trading Zucker for Kassian is a mistake for the Pens and would be a great move for Edmonton. But I think Burke and Hextall would do that deal for the size, and physicality of Kassian and the draft pick. And the little bit of cap relief.
Would be a great move for Edmonton though!!
