Thread: A different approach

I don't mind the pens trade. Think the Habs would take a player like Legare instead of Nylander? (French connection + Poulin and Nathan are good friends)

Thread: No Need to Overthink things

I prefer Domi's game over Zucker's if he is to play with Malkin. If it were up to me, I'd be putting Zucker with Crosby and Jake with Malkin but that's never going to happen unless somebody significant is out of the lineup.

I don't think you need a defensive minded player to play with Malkin but somebody who is more offensive minded (like a very poor man James Neal) could prove to be fruitful.

The pens would also benefit from having less on the Cap and less term (depending if they don't resign Domi) for more Cap flexibility next year.

I like Zucker as well but he has never been used to his fullest potential and should he playing alongside Crosby instead of Malkin and if they won't use him that way, then getting a player that matches more Malkin's play style may be something that could work for both the pens and cbj

Thread: Finding an Alternative

I also believe that Zucker could bounce back and should be able to do so. I personally do not see him suited to play on Malkin's wing and he is a better fit to play with Crosby or Carter moving forward.

I wouldn't go out of my way to trade Zucker but if there is a way to get multiple assets back (especially early on in the season where there are a few players out of the line up) then I'd be all for it.

Thread: if we lose him MTL pov

McCann is a good second / third pairing player but lacks any real consistency. He has the potential of being a 20 or even 30 goal scorer but needs to show more to be a real threat. For this trade I'd just change the 5th a third just on the age and potential factor but Drouin would be a solid player to get back.

Thread: Other Ideas

I'll be very honest. I just wanted to add a depth player to bring in the minors to try and balance the players coming and going.

Thread: Just a few ideas

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Marcsnack</b></div><div>Dont think DeSmith is enticing enough for them to take Zucker.
NJD could have interest in Pettersson if they do not resign guys like Murray or any other FAs.
I also dont think Riikola gets value back. I hope someone takes a chance on him though, he deserves it.</div></div>

I think there is a team tjat will be willing to pick up a player like Riikola. He isn't bad but doesn't do anything special. It just seems that there isn't a team that would be able to "fit" him in the line up as of now but I think that will change once we are closer to the draft or the beginning of the season.

Thread: 21-22 Penguins V2

I think you can cut some expenses with the returning players. While Ceci ZAR and Bluger all had fantastic seasons, it shouldn't be overly difficult to try and sign them for a lesser amount.

Personally, I'd go with TB 2 mil 2/3 years. ZAR 1.5 Mil 2 years and Ceci 1 year 1.75 mil which would allow to clear up more room if need be.

I do not hate the foligno signing but I feel there may be a better player that would fit the pens system better. (Not considering Bruke's or Hextall's "tough guy approach")

All this to say that I would like this team on paper for next year but I feel that the number against the cap can be tweaked. (Although that would change if any of the three current pens have a tremendous playoff run)

Thread: Deadline

I like adding E.Stall as a possible center but seeing how well the buzzsaw line has played it maybe best to just put this newfound third line as our forth. It doesn't help Zucker out but I get the feeling as soon as he is back he will take McCann's place. A fourth line of McCann Stall and Jank shouldn't be all too bad and allows us to keep Riikola if needed. That's my two pennies on it all but I really like this line up.

Thread: Defenseman

I think Rust will pick up his play once Malkin gets things going. I'd look elsewhere for a dman, maybe from a team like Chicago or Detroit who are not going to be making a push anytime soon.

As for Roslovic, the Jets have no leverage in getting more from a team and I'd really like it if the Pens don't pursue this trade given how well the bottom pairings have gelled so far but knowing GMJR, he will make the trade anyways.

If a trade "has" to be done for Roslovic, I'd say ZAR and Lafferty and maybe a 4th with the Jets giving back a 6th or a 7th. I'm not comfortable in trading a prospect (even if our prospect pool is considered to be one of the weakest in the league) for somebody who hasn't necessarily proved himself capable in playing top minutes, let alone a 3rd line role.

Thread: My 2020-21 Pens

Oh I'm certain most people will be iffy on this trade but this could be any team looking for a No.1 atm. I just feel as though Murray is destined to go to Minnesota for some odd reason. Also. Tell Billy G to stop shopping Dumba...
