Rumor: Crosby, Malkin only Penguins "untouchable" trade pieces

[Harvey Birdman]

You can most assuredly put Guentzel on the untouchable list. 24 year old 40 goal scorer locked up till 2024.

 

[PensRedwings2887]

Rico Fata and Konstantin Koltsov.

What about Tomas Surovy, Milan Kraft, and Kris Beech?

 

[3074326]

Remember when Penguins fans said that Olli Maatta was going to be better than Morgan Rielly? Good times man

How many years ago was that? And how many cups did the Pens win with Kessel? You're an idiot.

This is what happens when your team has sucked for decades. You isolate comments from years ago because your team hasn't given you much to cheer about up until this year. Makes sense.

 

[Harvey Birdman]

Would someone tell me who is untouchable on the penguins

Realistically...

Untouchable:
Crosby, Malkin, Guentzel, Letang

The extremely unlikely to be traded:
Murray, Dumoulin, McCann

Everyone else falls into debatable shades of gray.

 

[danielpalfredsson]

Kessel for Subban

 

[ChaosAgent]

Realistically...

Untouchable:
Crosby, Malkin, Guentzel, Letang

The extremely unlikely to be traded:
Murray, Dumoulin, McCann

Everyone else falls into debatable shades of gray.

I'd move Letang from untouchable down to category 2, and maybe elevate Murray up to untouchable.

 

[Kiwi]

I think Maata and Z have similar value. Ie negative value

Zaitsev still fits our needs better

He's a right shoot and is doing a solid job in a matchup role which has more value to the Leafs right now

He's also a good skater on a team that likes to get into track meets which is another plus in Zaitsev's favour

 

[Ugene Magic]

Who are Rossi's sources?

The team mocks him, and he has no real ties within the org.

This is like going to Eklund.

 

[CreeksideStrangler]

I would take letang in Toronto

 

[Dead Coyote]

I'd probably offer Gogo and a small add, maybe Fischer. Not offering our 1st + Gogo. A 3rd would be fine. Maybe a 2nd. I understand Kessel has more value than that, but as a team I simply don't see us paying what he's worth if he's coming here.

What about Tomas Surovy, Milan Kraft, and Kris Beech?

Ramzi Abid?

Report: Only Crosby, Malkin 'untouchable' for Pens on trade market

Thoughts?

EDIT (Rossi Mentions Guentzel as unlikely trade candidate, and they want to extend Murray)

I’d get rid of Malkin. Too many injuries, can look completely disinterested at times, can be goaded into dumb penalties, plays too much of a finesse game for someone of his size.

Of course great two way centers do not grow on trees, but he could also be traded for defensive help.

 

[haveandare]

Guentzel should be too.

Shocked they're open to trading Jack Johnson. Really thought that'd work out for them.

 

[End of Line]

Crosby, Malkin, Murray, and Guentzel are about the only guys JR won't trade.

 

[PensRedwings2887]

Ramzi Abid?

Andy Chiodo, Eric Meloche, Ryan Vandebussche please?
