Thread: Rebuilding

i mean but at the end of the day these trades don’t really do much for us? changing bad contract for bad contract, trading ned for a 2nd round with a pick swap, rolling the dice on the canucks deal and then getting 2 more mid round picks? just a lot of moving pieces that don’t really offer any direction more then the one we have right now

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SwarmChair</b></div><div>He’ll get traded. Not for the reported asks though. Rental Wingers asking for high extension cap hits don’t demand that type of return. High cap hit wingers are literally being given away these days. Much of Guentzals “value” is tied into Pens fans emotions for the players. Emotions won’t play out in the real world.</div></div>

Guentzel is a premier goal scoring winger, and is playing up to par with his value. The pens have a lot of the leverage here and Dubas has made it apparent that he's setting the value high (with the comparable to Giroux deal.) If he doesn't like what he sees, Guentzel will re-sign with the Carter contract off the books.

uh i hope you're aware that if guentzel is made available, the pens will have no problem finding a suitor for him and will get what they want for him or damn near close to it. you're also dealing with dubas here.....

Thread: Ottawa what about this

yea soooo we aren’t really in a position to go and trade arguably our best prospect for another “hopeful” dman that will magically work out and miraculously make the team a cup contender. this is Just going deeper and deeper down the rabbit hole of extending the rebuild. If we decide we aren’t selling at the deadline, we aren’t taking quite this kind of risk, that’s forsure

agreed, genuinely feel like anyone with a decent amount of understanding of the trade could’ve saw the avs johansen experiment going how it has. still never really understood that move but was more of a low risk-mid reward, maybe potential high reward move that just went nowhere.

he made a good point but you also have a case. it is often in these types of deals you have a player like mcleod going the other way. i think what makes this even more possible is that the oilers are under heavy pressure to round out into a legitimate cup threat come playoff time and jake guentzel certainly does wonders for that offensive unit. if dubas demands mcleod as the last piece in the trade assuming the other pieces are as expected, i honestly feel like edmonton would pull the trigger.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ItzMeTaboo</b></div><div>This is probably the likely package idea for Guentzel but imo get either another forward prospect or Beau Akey instead of Broberg.

fair point, would honestly probably rather Akey. More upside there that we can wait patiently on

Thread: Perfecting the roster and maintaining cap rollover

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Mr_Gardoki</b></div><div>These Pettersson trades are getting out of hand.

1) Pens aren't retaining.
2) Even if they sell, it won't be major pieces. They still plan on trying to ice a playoff team next year and that means keeping Pettersson.

Pettersson only likely becomes available at next year's deadline if the Pens are cooked and he plans on testing the market.</div></div>

yeah i agree, plus this trade doesn’t do anything much for us now or in the future, in the event that Petts is traded. Would have to be a significant overpay where we can’t decline the trade imo.

No no…. We are done here my friend. We rounded out the roster how we needed

Be grateful we even got EK, I thought it was a fantasy dream at first until I actually saw the trade roll in and couldn’t believe it. We are coming for what’s ours this season.

Right? Carter has to moved or something there’s gotta be something there…

Maybe retirement after all? Figure he realizes he’s not even gonna start, might as well hang ‘em up and get paid his salary on the couch.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pens1991</b></div><div>I absolutely think high picks will go to the sharks 100%, but most likely the rest of the return won't be much of anything, maybe a prospect, but some bad cap contracts are 100% coming back to SJS given Karlsson's 11.5m hit, even with retention lol</div></div>

Agreed. Of course they’re getting a first and second and probably a third as the base. The rest can go any which way. It’s also Grier Vs. Dubas here and as you said Karlsson and Dubas have all the leverage. If he wants to be a Penguin, he’s going to be a Penguin. And if Dubas can get him, he’s getting him.
