Confirmed with Link: Holy Crap, They Actually Make a Move! (Guentzel and Ty Smith to Carolina for Bunting + Ponomaryov + Koivunen + Lucius + Conditional 2024 2nd)

[Bub]

I know most of you have seen Jake Guentzel, but I think that if you are expecting him to be a product of Crosby you are about to be in for a surprise.

Highest IQ player on the Penguins. No natural skills. All brain.

Dude will fight for the front of the net. Great goal scorer. Great passer.

Perfect addition for the Canes. He's going to be great for you guys wherever you play him.

Power play is his weakness. But I think with your unit he'll be fine in the bumper role.

Great profile pic, btw.

Is that who is going or you are thinking/hoping?

 

[Brock Anton]

TFP knows nothing, so I’ll wait on that one.

Hoping ha. I just really don’t want Morrow included unless we knew he wasn’t going to sign with us.

Suzuki, Rees

Bunting, Rees, Gunler, 2nd would be my hope or something along those lines

Bunting, Trikozov, Heimosalmi, 2nd

I wonder if we grab Guentzel to flip him to Vancouver for Lindholm.

Is this Turbo’s Japanese cousin?

Yea with the defensive exodus coming up the next 2 years, no extension for Guentz, and Bunting going the other way i would REALLY hope the prospects are lesser than the Morrow/Nadeau/Blake/Koiv tier

 

[Unsustainable]

Im not so much worried, as the borg has shown, defense is easy to acquire vs 1st line forwards.

We probably walk away with Chychryn by the draft.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

With no discussions about an extension, morrow being included is an overpayment for a rental with Bunting already going

Doesn’t mean there won’t be when he gets here let’s just wait and see

That’s pretty meaningless for cost since we are trading for a rental

Oh well. For one we have no idea if morrow was gonna sign or not for sure and who knows how his game will translate to the nhl

Bunting’s value likely wasn’t very high.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

The big question is if Morrow privately wasn't willing to sign here. If so, using him as the Guentzel chip is the correct decision. We don't know this for sure, however.

 

[HisIceness]

I was told the Penguins fans shouldn't get excited about the return and Morrow is one of the prospects going the other way. Damn.

 

[User13452]

Seravalli just said morrow isn’t in the deal

"Believe"/"hearing". His word choice suggest more his own conjecture and speculation.

 

[SlavinAway]

Bunting, Blake, Suzuki, 2nd

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Scratch what I said about Morrow. The same signability concerns, however, may apply to Jackson Blake, the other NCAA prospect who was rumored.
