Rumor: Daley wants out?

[kliq]

Many posters? Lol there’s literally nobody here that’s mad about him wanting to leave

Hey, your perception is your perception. I disagree.

Penguins GM Jim Rutherford is ready to make a trade: 'The...

GMJR specifically says he doesn’t want a defenseman, so he’s probably looking for one eh? AA and Daley to Pitt makes sense to me.

Daley?
Not sure.
They can use AA. But what can they offer that's worth it?

I'd be hesitant to move AA to an EC team, especially the Pens, they're top 6 in Power Rankings...imagine him helping them win another cup (double whammy). The thought of Crosby/Malkin feeding him for the next 4-5 season (til they retire) & him possibly putting up 30G/60pts for 4-5 yrs makes me sick. I'd make them overpay to consider it, something they probably wouldn't wanna do.

They can have Daley for a 5th/6th.

If you think AA can help a team with a championship then why are you moving him?

1. For overpayment.
2. He's underperforming vs. last yr & his value is plummeting.
3. We could upgrade the D while he has some value (recency bias).
4. He doesn't seem like an SY type of player.
5. Ferris his agent & the 1st holdout.
6. Doesn't play a good 200ft/2-way game
7. His upcoming contract demands may be (likely) more $ & term, too much risk vs. potential reward.
8. He may put a contender (top 10) over the top, but not us, not right now or soon...I just don't want that team to be the Pens (mortal enemies).

1. No one is overpaying for him
2. Everyone in Detroit is underperforming
3. See #1
4. Based on what?
5. Ferris is also the agent for Zadina, Perlini and Pearson.
6. Outside of maybe Larkin no one else on the team plays a good 200 ft. game
7. Funny, I think the same thing about Bertuzzi and Mantha
8. So what if the Pens offer the best value? You're passing?

Agree to disagree, that's cool.

If you trade AA within the division, it's that much easier to score on them now.

In what earth does TD think he’s worth being traded to a Stanley Cup Contending team? What has he done to help a mediocre team shore up their issues on the backend? Mentor, cool, many of those, however if Yzerman can fleece a team for him, by all means do it. Just don’t see anything more than a 6th round pick on 2023 coming back. He’s done.
