<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hammerwise</b></div><div>True, but is it a win to finally have a young guy, pusstinen, break though in bottom 6?

When all of the impact players are early/mid to late 30s, you'd hope a poulin, pusttinen, poj breakthrough to top 6/top 4. The idea that youre going to get better results as an old team gets older is crazy.

I mean the johnssons, nietos, acciaris, carters, harkins, jonhstones, ellers, etc... are all part of this older/journeymen/never weres bottom 6 rotation they have going to cover the fact they have little hope/faith in poulins, pusstinen. It'd be great to think that with rackell struggling that pusttinen breaks through, but even in the roster above you have signed poulin and pust to just 800k for 1 yr, and placed them outside the starting 12, so even you have little faith in them</div></div>

How on earth would having a good young player be a bad thing in any situation ever? Frankly that is absurd.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Edmonton wouldn't want the remainder of Guentzel's season in exchange for two seasons plus of Evander Kane, who has an absolute NMC anyway, never mind the difference in cap hits or the draft pick on the wrong side (which wouldn't be a third, either).

Why would the forward-rich, top-5-in-the-league-offensively Kings want Rickard Rakell for free?</div></div>

Guentzel is a 40 goal scorer. I’d presume Edmonton would extend him. That’s on them if they don’t want a 40 goal scorer next to McDavid for the next half decade. Honestly, Pittsburgh is losing way way more in that trade, I just would be willing to do it for the change in style. I’m not gunna sit here and argue if you actually think evander Kane has more value than Jake freaking Guentzel

Why would a potential cup contender not want to add at the deadline a 25-30 goal scorer 💀????
