Since the news of Jim Rutherford stepping down as Penguins GM and listening to insiders talk about the future's of Crosby, Malkin, and Letang, it got me thinking:

Could it be possible we add all 3? *Crazy I know* but hear me out.

We've got just under $25m in cap space for next year. If we can get rid of Koskinen, Archibald, Russell, that'll bring us to just under $32m w/o bringing in any money.

The combined cap hits of all 3 are $25,450,000, leaving just under $6.5m in cap space if they were brought in.
Malkin and Letang will be in the last years of their contracts next season, while Crosby still has 4 years left after this season.

The only question is, what do we give up? If we can re-sign Nuge and include him, I'd be willing to do that. Add in the '22 1st rounder. More picks? Prospects?

Having Crosby-McDavid on line 1, with Malkin-Draisaitl on line 2... bruh.

McDavid - Crosby - JP/Kahun
Malkin - Draisaitl - Yamamoto
Neal - Turris - Kassian
Benson - Haas - McLeod

Klefbom - Letang
Nurse - Bear
Jones - Bouchard

Grubauer?
Konovalov

1. Nuge + 1st + prospect for Letang
2. Letang + JP for Malkin
3. Malkin +Broberg for Crosby
4. Crosby for Letang + Malkin
5. Chiasson for Crosby
I was scratching my head after 2. Then at 4 I actually realized what you're doing. Then 5 erased 1-4 and I'm left yelling SOLD!
