Confirmed with Link: Rakell to PIT for 2nd/Clang(goalie prospect)/ZAR/Simon

[Turin]

Jeff Marek said “players” as well. Kapanen? Pettersson? Hmmm…

I would guess Pettersson or ZAR

ZAR and Simon and we're all gettin' laid.

 

[Sideline]

Looking at what Giroux went for when he had Philly restricted to one team makes me happy with this price for Rakell.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Legare + 2nd is my guess.

Could be POJ but that's steep

Poulin I hope not.

 

[LiffLaff]

Love this, should be a great add.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Meh

More of the same IMO

Just say his name out loud...Rickard Rakell. It's fun to say. We don't have any fun names like that.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I do not know what kind of a season he is having, but based on passed years, it is a great addition.

Good job Sleepy!

Here is some insider info

Jk

I mean he's Swedish. That's always a plus.

28 points in 51 games, so a 44 point pace. The Ducks suck, though, so I assume he'll put up stronger numbers here playing with Malkin.

EDIT: The roster player has to be Pettersson, right?

 

[Gurglesons]

ZAR 2nd and POJ right?

 

[Gurglesons]

Meh

Who else was moved that wasn't? Giroux is the only elite talent moved up front this year.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Still waiting on the names but I like RR

I feel like we've said this before.

*looks at Jason Zucker*

3 assets for a rental seems a bit much unless the roster player is a pure cap dump. I like it though

Hopefully not Blomqvist or Clang

Pick and our prospects are nothing to write home about. As long as it isn't Kapanen we good.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Welcome to Pittsburgh, Ricky Racks.

 

[Jacob]

Rakell used to play for Vellucci in juniors.

 

[Jobeycool]

I don't think the Pens cannot even get past the first round with just this move.. because how tough our division is and they still cannot chip in some goals on the 4rth line for a hill of beans and hardly any on the 3rd line.

 

[orby]

ZAR 2nd and POJ right?

Don't think the Pens can make the cap work in that trade unless they retain.

 

[Gurglesons]

Exactly what we needed if it comes on the cheap.
