Thread: Kotka to Pens

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>loganocota</b></div><div>doesn't make sense. Eller is a reliable 3C and he's $2.3 million cheaper. Rakell found his groove again w/ 71 & 8.</div></div>

I think as Sid & Geno get older the team will need a 3C that can eat up more minutes (long-term). Maybe the retention of Rakell is too much, had to make the cap work for Carolina as well

Mark Recchi did exactly this leaving to win the cup in Carolina in '06 and re-signed with the Pens. The stars are aligned

The thing that never happens
His agent hasn't talked about a deal to anyone
I think he'll be sad going away
I think the Pens can offer as much $$$ as anyone else
Just do it

Thread: Bringing back G in the off-season

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>edeangel84</b></div><div>This never happens and it is not going to happen. Team do not trade expiring UFAs and then resign them. Everyone realizes after the trade that it is time for both parties to move on. Jake is not coming back. This team is done for as a playoff team. This trade was the beginning of the rebuild process. The organization will avoid that word because it is a ticket sales killer but in reality we can start to take apart this roster as long as 87 is still here to sell those tickets.</div></div>

Or they could just do it

Thread: This plus our picks back please

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WindyCity2121</b></div><div>Except the fact matheson doesn’t have that value. Bias fan smh. And pens do not even want the dude, so idk why you’re saying they desperately want him. He’s worth MAYBE a 1st, but definitely not a 1st AND a prospect like yager</div></div>

I'd rather have Karlsson than Matheson but if I could go back and get Marino back which was the impetous for wanting to acquire Petry, yes I would take it back 3 years ago. Matheson pairing up with Letang or Karlsson makes no sense in terms of roster construction

Edit: you know who I meant to quote

Thread: This plus our picks back please

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Campabee</b></div><div>Do you know what capitalism is? We have something that Pens fans desperately want back, something we don't want to and don't have to move. Value is whatever we set it at, if the Pens want Matheson, they will have to pay whatever we say we want and I guarantee, that won't be "fair value" or what they think he is "worth".</div></div>

No one is actually proposing trading to get Matheson back, it doesn't make any sense on this roster. This ACGM is pretending a bunch of trades (including Matheson) didn't happen

Thread: Closing out the year

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Julius_Freezer</b></div><div>In an ideal world I don't think VAN wants to trade Podz but if Guentzel comes with a reasonable extension I can't see Alvin and JR turning that down, VAN accepts. All these trades are very reasonable but you likely need to attach something minor to Carter and I don't think SJS gives you back your 1st this year, toehrwise this is one of the best ACGMs I've seen, good job!</div></div>

Thanks! Carter really doesn't need to be moved, I assume if Pens are out he might ask to ''get another shot'' somewhere, he is a serviceable 4th liner this season so I figured Philly might be the fit to retire. I think if it costs an asset, they just keep him

Thread: deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nightowl26</b></div><div>Really? wow, I know Pittsburgh wants players who can help them now and in the near future because of the age of the core players. I thought Carrier would be a solid 3rd winger and is a Stanley cup winner.</div></div>

The issue is that Pens have too many bottom 6 wingers

Thread: deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nightowl26</b></div><div>Carolina wants to move him and reports say they will retain 50% for 5th. I think a 6th and he's salary is like $800K is worth a risk. He's a FA at the end of the year and you can let him go if it doesn't work out. Cheap help for you guys on the right side of the D.</div></div>

I think the locker room is fragile enough rn that it's not worth bringing in a guy who has so many issues with teammates

Thread: Penguins Pipe Dream

Why would we move Pickering? He's the top prospect in the system and Petterson might be traded if he can't be resigned so he'$ desperately needed.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>dgibb10</b></div><div>Tarasenko worst, but would be cheapest if he chooses to waive for a team.

Toffoli better than Tarasenko but slightly more expensive

Guentzel is gonna get expensive but carries injury risk</div></div>

Agree they will all be priced in this order. Guentzel only has a small fracture in his finger and is 2 weeks from coming back. He's missed very little time due to injury in his career.

Definitely too much, it's to sign the "he won't sign anywhere but DET crowd". Just highlighting that pens can get Kuznetsov and still spend 9mil on a top 6 UFA

Agreed, I don't think pens are allowed to retain. I assume they can move him for a 3rd in the off-season again like they did last summer
