I wouldn't mind him on the 4th line. i have watched him play quite a bit in NY. He is an energy guy with decent hands good on Face Offs. Acquisition cost probably not as high as others.

I like Ryan. doubt we deal Cole in division though especially to Caps.

Thread: Pens-Sens deal

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MG1986</b></div><div>JGP to the Pens seem like a no-brainer to me. Doubt Reaves would be included, as he cost the Pens a lot to get him and if they were serious about making another playoff run, you'd ideally want to have him around. A deal like Cole and Daniel Sprong and a 2nd or 3rd should do it, no?</div></div>

I doubt the Pens do that much. Sprong is top-prospect and draft picks would seem like an over payment to me.

Need to make the salaries work. Could always flip Cole for another asset.

Thread: Deadline Add

I wouldn't do it if i was a JR. Too much in my opinion throwing in the 2nd and 3rd. Maybe swap a 2nd for a 3rd, something like that.

Thread: Pittsburgh Penguins Colorado trade

Would need a pick back from Colorado as well, maybe 3rd round. I know Soderberg has been a bit of a disappointment prior to this year.

Thread: Pens trades

He looked great last night. I know they need a goalie, not sure they would feel confident rolling with him. Not unfair, maybe a tad of an over payment by us.

Thread: Colorado trade

How high is Cole's value? everyone knows we are trying to deal him, he is a healthy scratch for Hunwick and Oleksiak. Yak has upside to me, maybe with Geno he regains some confidence that made him such a high pick. Not a Maroon fan at all.

Thread: Pens - Sens

probably would love to get Smith or Pageau from Sens without grossly overpaying.

Thread: Montreal trade

I disagree. Galchenyuk > than Sheary and can play Center is the same age and locked up. Solves 3rd line center position going forward. Plekanek is only under contract for this year is strong on FO's, decent hands and can help off-set loss of Hags on PK. Maybe he signs a minor deal next year to be 4th line center. Gets Hags off the books for next year. How much better is Dumo than Cole? No luck dealing Cole, maybe you resign and go Maata-Letang; Cole-Shultz; some combo of Oleksiak/Hunwick/Rudewhedl as bottom pair. Dumo isn't some world beater top-pairing defenseman.

It is a fair deal

Thread: Feedback appreciated

I like it but not sure if that is enough to pry both Trouba and Little from Winnipeg. Trouba is a #1 defenseman - Maata slots in more as a #4. I love Rust but he isn't a big goal scorer and we would be getting back a center. You are throwing in sweeteners like Jarry and the 1 v 2 swap, just don't think it is enough. Only way i could see Winnipeg entertaining this if they thought Trouba was definitely leaving, but still think they could get a better haul. As a Pens fan i would be in favor of it.

Thread: Top 4D & C

Maata is certainly not worthless. He is 22, high Hockey IQ with great vision. He has limitations but certainly not garbage. Hornqvist has scored 20+ goals in 7 of the last 8 seasons, the one he didn't he only played 24 games. He is a warrior and exactly the type of guy you want on your team in the playoffs. He brings a great deal to the table and is a FA after this season. A young team like Calgary would be better for having him in the locker room and on the ice.

Thread: Getting Duchene

Not a fan of dealing all of those assets for a guy that is terrible at shot suppression. I think we should trade Maata and something but for a top-4 defender. I would prefer targeting Hanzal as a 3C, costs no assets to acquire.

I don't think Colorado makes that deal.

Thread: Another cup for some old guys

I would be surprised if Calgary gave up both Bennett and Brodie. Maybe one for the offer you propose. I would think maybe a Maata-Sheary and a pick for Brodie would get them thinking, not sure they except though.

Thread: 3peat please

I like the direction you are headed for the most part. Winnik could be a good replacement for Bonino and brings that toughness element that JR is looking for. I don't think they would have both so i would delete Bonino. I also don't think they would waste Kunitz's time by re-upping him then dealing him. Your salaries are a little off. I think Sheary gets about 3M, Doumalin about 3.5, Shultz about 4.5. DelZotto should be in the neighborhood of 2M. Oskar about 900K. I also think we have too many forwards and may package one of the young ones like Sheary and someone for a top-4 defenseman. Maybe a Sheary and a Maata to Colorado for Tyson Barrie. Something like that. I do like Winnik, MDZ and Nesterov though.

Thread: Vesey in Pittsburgh

Hopefully Dumoulin was in his ear this summer, think they played in summer league together. Being able to play Kunitz and Fehr on the 4th line would be a great luxury.

I like your team. I hope you are right. Jimmy Vesey probably only signs for 1 year though at that price but doesn't much matter.

Forum: Armchair-GMJul. 8, 2016 at 1:54 p.m.

Thread: Pens

I like the players involved. I think Vesey goes for 950K and Shultz would come cheaper probably in the 1.5 range. I can't see the Anaheim deal happening on either side. Though I am a fan of acquiring silferberg or cogliano, don't think Kunitz will be moved or Cullen would be brought back to then be traded.

Thread: Fowler+ for Duchene/Landeskog

never happen. why on earth would they give up Duchene for Fowler and a pick? Didn't Vesey also say he wants to stay in the North East.

Thread: Maybe if the Oilers get desperate for another RD

think you are a little light on the offer to Edm. the tough thing about moving Staal or G is that they would have to be protected in the expansion draft. Maybe they can find a home for one of them if they eat salary.
