So 1pm tomorrow trades will be announced. what are the chances that Carsen Twarynski is a penguin before the weekend??

Obviously the guys there in person aren't getting traded, they are looking for living quarters. Every player knows if they've been traded or not. My guess is the ones who are getting traded had their names pulled from the arses of the octopus and fish. (Cholowski and McCant)

Besides the cap space... the other big win for tonight is Jordan franking Eberle leaving the division. That guy killed us everytime we played them.

Did the Islanders really protect Clutterbuck and Martin over Eberle? Wow.

You don’t let guys like Martin and Clutterbuck exposed. Lou set the Kraken up to take the players Lou wanted, you instead of gifting them two not easily replaced players.

If Malkin gets placed on LTIR, what cap savings will the Pens have if he misses the first half of season? Could that money be placed towards another player?

Penguins are one of the teams in discussions for Christian Dvorak.

I just read an article about that rumor with them stating Pettersson may be part of that trade if it happened (just speculation by the person writing the article).

I thought the exact same thing. Eberle is going to be relied on quite a bit offensively. The Krak emphasized defense in the draft. Where are the goals coming from for starters?

Strome might be a Kraken soon. A NYR-SEA trade. I read somewhere that Giordano might be traded for him. Makes a lot of sense.

Idk that the players that were actually on stage are getting traded, or I should say I would be surprised. They all talked to the fans.

Since when do we need rules?

How about when Player A was traded for Player B and Team A retained money on Player A while buying out Player B then re-signing him to $1M then trading him to team C and retaining 50%? Not to mention Team C buys him out while simultaneously trading him and retaining 50%! Did the NHL rules matter then?

He would be a good get for the Pens depending on the price.

He’s an overpaid 3c imo and I think Blueger would be the better value at that spot but yeah if it’s Pettersson for Dvorak it makes sense.

Most players signed by AZ have to be overpayments so they stay, but I think he'd be a suitable replacement for McCann and making probably around what McCann would make on his new contract.
