GDT: Penguins Trade Deadline discussion thread

[IcedCapp]

Kennedy and Jeffrey for draft picks. Time to restock.

"Ray, we'll give you a conditional 5th for Kennedy"

"How about a 1st"

"Okay, sounds good!"

If Glass is abducted, does he still count against the cap?

Depends: Alien or Humans?

 

[Ugene Magic]

Shero just keeps trolling along. *chuckles*

They're RFAs. I'd keep as much depth as possible, let them play in the postseason when injuries occur and move them in the summer.

 

[Zbynek]

I proposed a Jussi to Pittsburgh trade earlier this season and got laughed at.

So, pretty happy about this one. Interested in the exact numbers of salary retention by Carolina...

So far, what picks do we have this year?
two 3rds, 4th, than either a 6 or 7th plus Winnipegs? or am I missing one?

This is what ive been saying for days. we have added, added, and added. we dont need 10 guys in the pressbox. We also have bennett in WBVS who can be calle dup after the deadline when the roster limit is lifted.

We could really use some draft picks tbh.

 

[Ogelthorpe]

With all of the depth Shero has put together, I can't believe people can still ***** about Wayne Gretzky...I mean Joe Vitale, not being in the lineup.

 

[Jag68Sid87]

out indefinitely, strained abducted muscle?

 

[PenguinTommy]

I'm sure Shero won't put himself in a postion where he isn't able to re-sign Iginla because of Jussi Jokinen.

Hopefully

But still, it would be interesting summer, IMO.

Aliens would mean he's literally never coming back, so I choose Aliens.

 

[garnetpalmetto]

Thank you!

No problem. Here's hoping Jokinen and the rest of the Pens wind up drinking from Lord Stanley.

 

[cheesedanish87]

This move sucks for BB no reason to even call him up

 

[Jag68Sid87]

Time to send 2-3 players to Columbus to help get them into the playoffs. They have 3 firsts!

DO it Ray!

 

[IcedCapp]

Aliens would mean he's literally never coming back, so I choose Aliens.

then yes, Alien Abduction is definitely cap-exemption worthy.

You forgot to mention the part where you wanted to give up Niskanen for him.

 

[Shrimper]

Trade Glass or Kennedy and be done with it Ray!

Liking the Jussi deal a lot!

 

[shureshot66]

No problem. Here's hoping Jokinen and the rest of the Pens wind up drinking from Lord Stanley.

Thanks! Clearly Rutherford's compensating for the Recchi trade's contribution to your '06 Cup.

 

[Frederick Stanley]

Kennedy, Glass, Jeffrey should all be available right now.

3rd for TK, 3rd for Jeffrey and a 6th for Glass.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

It does but he will have his chance in the future

Could have been worse if we moved him for a rental

 

[MtlPenFan]

Yup. I mean saying that someone is literally "No longer on this earth" would surely clear up some cap space.

 

[Dying Alive]

Wrong thread.

 

[WayneSid9987]

I wouldn't be worried about Bennett.
With or without Jokinen, DB would probably play Morrow, Glass before BB.
The good news is, DB may like Jokinen and will be in the lineup regularly as opposed to Vitale who can't get in there.

This just pushes Jeffrey on the bubble with Vitale now.

 

[EvGeno]

I think maybe I should change my screen name... I guess this deal is OK, except for having way too many forwards now.

Does anyone know WHY the Pens seem to dislike Vitale?? I don't get it; he seems better than Kennedy and Jeffrey at this point. Maybe the latter two were being kept in the lineup in the hope they'd increase their trade value?

Is Vitale UFA after this season or next season?
