I like this for Pitt. Smith is a decent top 6 winger.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Making room for Hill+Barbashev, probably

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

That is something.

 

[kevsh]

Dubas making a splash already.

 

[um]

boy Vegas is ruthless

 

[Poppy Whoa Sonnet]

Making room for Barbashev?

 

[ponder719]

Thanks for the Cup! Now get the F out.

 

[DaveG]

there's the cap space for that Hill extension

 

[Petes2424]

That’s a huge deal for Vegas. He wasn’t a difference maker in the playoffs. Now they can resign Barbashev.

Clearing cap space for Barbashev, it would seem. Not sure if that's the right call.

PIT adds a competent winger.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Huge coup for PIT

 

[Mrfenn92]

Vegas gives zero f***s

Clearing cap space for Barbashev, it would seem. Not sure if that's the right call.

PIT adds a competent winger.

5 years younger is a pretty big deal.

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

Good value for Pitt IMO

 

[Ginger Papa]

Although I’m not a Vegas fan, I appreciated the original Misfits and was hoping to see the core around for another season.

But, that’s the Hard Cap world.

Nice acquisition for the Pens

 

[Sticksandsun]

He was terrible in the playoffs, I don't know how he got a 3rd and Hall nothing, would much rather have Hall.

He was part of their shutdown line with Karlsson. Barbashev had a nice playoff run next to Eichel and Marchessault, but banking on him repeating that performance would be a mistake.

 

[Three On Zero]

Hmmm, decent for both sides

 

[Empoleon8771]

I love this deal for the Penguins, really nice addition.

 

[Bizz]

Vegas absolutely fleeced.

You love to see it.

 

[Pavelski2112]

Thanks for the Cup! Now get the F out.

Typical Vegas lack of loyalty

 

[BostonBruins11]

Always loved him on the Bruins, smart player with good vision/hands

 

[bossram]

5 years younger is a pretty big deal.

Depending on the terms, I doubt Barbashev's next deal will turn out well. He's not going to repeat his playoff performance.

 

[Dominance]

Wow. Could easily be a win/win if this means Vegas can keep Barbashev, but that’s just great value for the Pens.
