"Flyers and Scott Laughton's camp still engaged in contract talks. Flyers also taking calls from teams on him. Could go to the wire."

Wouldnt be surprised if the Pens were still finding the right dance partner for a 3 way deal.

Also we're supposedly still in on Getzlaf but haven't heard it from any of the big media guys.

What a boring tread deadline.

Can't remember the last time there was a big deadline TBH.

happens every year bud

Usually does. I remember 08 was exciting for us because Hossa was last minute. And 2013 Iginla came out of nowhere for us.

Iggy was announced at like 1:30am my time. I had a lot of fam and friends texting and calling me and it woke me up hahah. I was very stoked.

If Ron is still in talks I'd actually be shocked. Unless his plan is to sell off a bunch of parts this summer to recoup some draft capital.

Getz is going to VGK or staying put.

Carter was his big move. I'm sure he's still talking to other GM's. Something might fall into his lap.

To your larger point... I do believe they'll reshape the team after the season. Possibly move a couple of players for draft capital and/or UFA money.

They're called Lumpia.

I feel like the last few years the week leading up to the deadline was more active than this year. Maybe I just have selective memory.

Flat cap might be hurting teams right now

Yah, I think that is the case too. Frankly, I have no idea who else he would be looking at. I did not even have Carter on my radar.

I can't imagine we are. That would definitely require a third team and major assets.

Meanwhile EK again reporting Bennett is still in play with us and MTL. Let them be dumb.

Yeah they look just like our Spring Rolls....and I want them now.

I believe with half retained the Pens could fit Bennett, especially if a player went their way. Not that I want this, just sayin

I just wonder where someone like him plays. Bennett-McCann-Carter with Zucker back on Geno's line? Bennett with Geno? None of these ideas give me the warm and fuzzies.

Flip Carter for Laughton

He has a bit of a rep as a playoff performer...which is only a 30 game sample size with 19 points in it...which is pretty good but I dont know if deserving of such a rep. I will say though Burkie was his GM for a while and I totally believe this rumour haha.

We have a ton of spare parts that I would basically give away between all the 13th forwards and extra D.

Gonna be Rust and a 3rd for Bennett and a 1st. That way ERod gets his top line spot back.

Getz is going to VGK or staying put.
- Feds91Stammer

Yeah, Strickland reporting that’s where Getz would say yes since it’s close to home.

VGK send a 2nd and 3rd for Janmark and a 5th? So much for the buyers market lol. I would not pay a second for him.

Unlikely now with the Janmark deal
