Confirmed with Link: Tanner Pearson to the Penguins (Traded for Carl Hagelin 1 for 1)

[Empoleon8771]

I've been saying the Penguins should get Pearson for weeks, I'm really happy to get him. Sprong is almost definitely going out, but I'm curious to see how else goes out.

Pearson is a great pickup. I'm a little nervous about what's moving out though.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Mario might want to cancel that JR extension... Tyler Pearson is not what this team needed.

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Was hoping Rust

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

We'll see how much it actually helps. Have my doubts but admittedly don't watch Pearson quite enough to get a great feel.

Why don't they just set Sprong free FFS?

what about Tanner

 

[JackFr]

Tanner is fact, productive, and a good LW. He's very much what we need, but I wonder who could be heading out?

If I had to guess I'd say Rust.

 

[Sideline]

The money here is interesting. It's had to take some cap voodoo to get 3.75 in the door...

 

[Clare2904]

Is this 100%?

Tanner, Tyler, we do not need more plugs

Rust/Brassard... my guess. The pundits say this one will be complicated, evidently.

 

[LuckyBoeser]

Is Rust most likely going to LA?

 

[Big McLargehuge]

Well, this is going to be interesting.

Pearson has been good before, but he's been outright miserable for a decent bit now. Here's hoping a change of scenery gets him back on track.

Hagelin didn't sound like anyone that was included in those "threats" last week from JR

 

[dogthateats]

A bunch of no name people on twitter are saying Hagelin.

 

[Shaffer]

Done

Thanks Haggy!

 

[ronduguayshair]

Maybe now you’ll see sprong in the top 6

 

[dogthateats]

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I hate that trade.

I dunno, days of the forum complaining about the prospect of Sprong going for nuffink before being tried, Rutherford doesn't do that and there's people complaining about why isn't he let free

(Nothing bad at you, just find it a funny contrast)

[Sideline]

So minor cap savings, cost certainty, and a younger player. Not the worst, LW depth is still a concern.

Playing for a contract.

 

[SomeDude]

Hoo boy, that's a bit of a punch to the gut trade.

I know next to nothing about Pearson so I have no clue about that aspect, but JR definitely got the room's attention with this.
