Thread: Pens Opening Night 20-21
Articles I have read said Murray is probably worth a bit less than Lehner (2nd + prospect + roster player) but maybe worth a bit more than/about the same as Grubauer. Pens might be able to add a heavy contract like Bjugstad into the Murray deal as well. I think he is probably worth around a 2nd and a little more.

I think the Bjugstad/Pateryn swap makes sense. With Koivu's future being a question mark and Staal only having another year at the age of 36, Bjugstad is a good risk to take. He is also from Minnesota, so that might give him extra motivation. Pateryn seems to be out of favour there and they also have Addison potentially coming up ( :((((( ). The Pens could use him as the 3rd pairing dman or as an extra. If the cap works, I like this swap.

Finally, I do actually like the idea of the Turris deal. The Penguins management did say they want to get younger, so he might not be someone they look at, but the deal makes sense. Nashville gets something back and only pay $2M for 4 years instead of 8.
