Hey, the Preds probably need a RD. Send 'em Schultz and see what we can steal from 'em now that Corey Perry just brained Ellis.
I don't think Desmith and Riikola get it done. Definitely Desmith but I don't see them having much interest in Riikola. And if they did we'd still likely have to add.My dream acquisition for a name that’s been out there for a potential trade is Kapanen...
TOR needs defense and goaltending...we may have to part with a goaltender and maybe Riikola...don’t think TOR has money for Schultz....but that would be a good player fit and someone who can score goals and is well rounded...
Kahun/Simon- Sid-Kapanen
Kahun/Gally- G- Rust
McCann/Simon-Bjug/McCann-Horny
ZAR-Blueger-Tanev
Don’t underestimate their salary cap issues and the fact that their current back up situation is an automatic loss.I don't think Desmith and Riikola get it done. Definitely Desmith but I don't see them having much interest in Riikola. And if they did we'd still likely have to add.
What would that cost us? How has he played this year? What does he resemble on our team?Yeah, Granlund is probably a good target for us with Jake out if Nash falls out of the playoff picture.
He’d probably be relatively cheap too.
JGP, Namestikov and Hainsey. One stop shopping.Schultzy for Granlund
Edit: Also, when I asked the Sens board about players the Pens could acquire, they're ready to give up Hainsey for a low pick. Haven't watched him this year, but I believe he can still play both sides and would be a nice security option.
They most certainly could use Desmith, no doubt whatsoever. But they aren't gonna give him up for him alone. If they would it would be GLORIOUS!Don’t underestimate their salary cap issues and the fact that their current back up situation is an automatic loss.
desmith could maybe even do it alone.
My apologies, @Randy Butternubs - i did not see you created a thread. I merged them.

Good on faceoffs and a + 19, can score goals and hard to play against.TIOPS article today says the one rental forward the Pens are most interested in is Pageau....can drive own offense, plays multiple positions and is trusted by the coaches...says JR tried to acquire him, not Brassard, initially from the Sens...
What are you giving up for Pageau Pixie?McCann - Crosby - Kahun
Galchenyuk - Malkin - Rust
Simon - Pageau - Hornqvist
ZAR - Bleuger - Tanev
I can deal I guess.
What are you giving up for Pageau Pixie?
I think a 1st should be enough, and fine if we move Bjug, but what caliber of prospect would you have in mind? I sure hope you don't mean any of Poulin, Legare, Hallander or Addison.I imagine it would be a 1st, Bjugstad and one of our prospects.
I'm not really into it, but I can get the idea behind doing it.
