Well PITT have 2 ways , rebuild or continue on this road that they can't winTo be honest it's not far off what Crosby will return and there's no way he's traded anywhere except his choice destination.
But their targeting of prospects instead of picks tells me they want to try a soft retool and still compete with Crosby who will probably play until he's 42.
They're right next to each other in scoring and I believe Suzuki is a single spot in impact above replacement. Not that farfetched that Nick will get better and Sid will trend downwards. Nicks also got some of the best defensive metrics in the league this year.i love seeing crosby on the 2nd behind suzuki
I think the issue here is they are locked in to the other three and their value is basically contingent on playing with Crosby.Well PITT have 2 ways , rebuild or continue on this road that they can't win
Crosby will sure have the Habs on his list
IF PITT is going on a rebuild they have great old chip
Crosby
Malkin
Karlsson
Letang
These 4 will bring great draft pick and prospect for sure
I don't think Ovenchkin and malkin will come in MLT ,, Crosby though sure willThey're right next to each other in scoring and I believe Suzuki is a single spot in impact above replacement.

There won't be a bidding war because Crosby will pick his spot and he's one of the classiest guys of his era and brought them three cups so they won't do wrong by him.
Ironically Crosby, Malkin, and ovechkin have all said Montreal is the only other place they'd like to play.
Go to the box. Two minutes. Feel shame.dreaming here

Adding Crosby will make us a cup contender!Crosby is going to a cup contender...period...end of story.
I remember that for Malkin it was apparently Florida, Montreal or Pittsburgh, but that was a decade ago (more or less).Ironically Crosby, Malkin, and ovechkin have all said Montreal is the only other place they'd like to play.
Not bad. Pittsburgh could retain 50% of Crosby's salary and take on a contract like Armia's.dreaming here

The difference is that we actively want Crosby. Letang's contract is just scary, moreso given his past injuries.Lemieux had even stronger roots in Montreal than Crosby, and regardless of all the speculation, he never came. I think NHL players move more for family then for childhood team adulation.
You have more of a chance that Letang will want to come.
I think it would be hard to get Pittsburgh to agree to that. Look at deals like Fox wanting to go to NYR for a measure of what players fetch even when they have a single destination in mind. If we're looking at the 2024 draft, I think Winnipeg's first and Pittsburgh's 2nd in 2025 would be the least that could seriously happen, otherwise PIT will try and keep him for next season.If Crosby comes to Montréal, it's because he wanted to go to Montréal, and nowhere else.
Which means in that situation that Montréal can pretty much offer anything, since there would be no competing offers.
So in that situation I'd do Ylonën + 3rd
Crosby
Malkin
Karlsson
Letang
