Lowry would be a real good scenario, as he'd kill multiple birds with one stone. Maybe find a way to include Maatta and Morrissey.
On the trade boards, Winnipeg fans seem open to the idea of moving Lowry for the 31st. Not sure what to think about that, but I love the player and he plays real nasty.
Wouldn't mind seeing Oshie brought in.. Could benefit us on the score sheet and a bit physically(not sure if enough though).
Saw Ottawa is possibly open to letting go of Phaneuf with some retention.. Wouldn't be the worst thing..
Wonder if Ruhwedel is included in that group. Would definitely like to have him back as a 7.
Kane Crosby Guentzel
Williams Malkin Kessel
Sheary 3C Rust
Wilson Cullen (if he would come back) Kuhnhackl

7th? To me he earned himself a spot in the starting lineup. Nice cheap bottom pairing defender
So basically unless other moves are made, I'm not sure Ruh being our #6 is the smartest move. But if some other move is made to bring in another PMD, then I'm all for Ruh being our #6D. But if our starting 5 do not change, then unless we cannot afford someone else, I'd rather see someone else as our #6.
And like I said - this is coming probably from his biggest fan here.
Another possible pick up could be Boone Jenner from Columbus. Not only do they need cap space to resign Wennberg but he must be protected as well. Not sure what they'd want but I'd give up the 1st for him.
Just not sure what Buffalo wants from us for Kane.

Hornqvist was great for Sid because he was either copping the abuse after the whistle (taking the focus off Sid) or if Sid was getting attention he was right in there. Not fighting but pulling guys off. #thingsthatsounddirtybutarent
Sign & Trade for Maatta is the obvious one. Or Pouliot and pick maybe if we don't do sign & trade. LHD in any case I'd have thought.
If he was a UFA and we could sign him to a 1 year deal (even at his current rate) without having to give up assets to get him then I could see it being worth a gamble. Give him a try, see if our locker-room can get him on the straight and narrow. If it doesn't work then we would let him move on.I don't want Kane anywhere near this team. Doesn't matter the leadership in the room, some people just aren't going to change and will always have/cause issues. No thanks.
This is a very interesting line up you've got there. I don't hate it one bit. Would have to know more about William's contract demands. He's 35. I would risk a 2yr deal on him if it's no more than $2.5-3mil. He can still be a 20g, 50pt player here I think. He was still dangerous in the playoffs and was in more than his fair share of scrums.

I suggested: Lowry+B.Lemiuex for 1st, Pouliot, Kuhnhackl. I love the idea of Lowry here.
Thank you for the lineup compliment. My idea was something around Hornqvist for Kane. It's not that I really want to trade Hornqvist but to afford that roster we most likely have to. The other premise was that we traded Fleury to Vegas with the condition that they also select Hagelin. Maybe we could even make a bigger deal with Buffalo to get a dman along with Kane. I know of Bogosian but I am not really sure of any other dman Buffalo has. What dman do they have that you think could fit the Pens?
I cannot endorse any situation where we add a F at the expense of a Dman. Have you seen the state of our D corps? Mark freakin Streit dressed in a playoff game. We need to be ADDING to the defensive depth, not subtracting from it. We're strongest at forward
Is this worded badly or is it just me?
