Legare/Poulin + 2nd been calling this package for a while

NICE!!! This is what I’m talking about! Pitt has good pieces.

 

[Riptide]

Happy they're doing something, because some help up front is needed... just not sure about what it's going to cost... cringing a little until I see the price...

 

[orby]

Interesting...I wonder which prospect?

 

[Zirakzigil]

Love it depending on what prospect we moved.

 

[Empoleon8771]

A 2nd and a prospect is an amazing trade unless the prospect is Poulin. I'm super happy with that move, I really like it.

 

[grewalwings]

The prospect is Malkin

 

[jetsforever]

Wow, decent for Pittsburgh

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Could see Verbeek liking Drew O'Connor

 

[Ryder71]

Just under the gun, and in time!

 

[The Red Line]

Great pickup for Pitt.

They are def one of my sleeper teams in the east.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Curious on the prospect

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Legare + 2nd or something like that

 

[Liberty Biberty]

They just moved Lindholm, maybe POJ?

 

[DucksUnited]

Could see Verbeek liking Drew O'Connor

Wouldn’t mind Poulin.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

Wouldn’t mind Poulin.

Poulin or Joseph as the prospect would be nice. O'Connor a young forward we can plug right into the lineup

Good move, IDK who it is really we gave up a 2nd to pick up one of the better wingers available at the TDL. Cant complain, not too many years left to make a run

Poulin or Joseph as the prospect would be nice. O'Connor a young forward we can plug right into the lineup

I like Joseph also. I’m just happy that a deal was made out of Pittsburgh. They have a lot of players that can help Anaheim

 

[Empoleon8771]

Poulin or Joseph as the prospect would be nice. O'Connor a young forward we can plug right into the lineup

It's probably going to be Joseph if I had to guess. He was a JR acquisition and Hextall is allegedly not nearly as high on POJ (his nickname).

My expectation is that the trade is going to be Aston-Reese, Joseph and a 2nd. Ironically Aston-Reeae also has a nickname like POJ, his is ZAR

 

[KrisLeturnover]

Roster player included in the deal. My moneys on Pettersson

 

[Deport Ogie]

2022 pick, prospect and roster player. Likely necessary to make the cap work.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Rakell-Malkin-Kapanen is a good second line.

 

[Ryder71]

I hope it aint not POJ, DOC or Nylander. Everyone else is trash!
