But this does leave us having a huge hole in our line up and virtually a poor checking line We can't retain salary until next season though. Currently retaining on Luongo and Hansen. Sutter gets moved 2019 Off-season or 2020 TDL - his NTC gets scaled back to 15 teams he won't go to as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then go all-in near TDL, as the Pens try to three-peat. Can Aston-Reese play C? maybe a combo of him and a 1 year veteran can tag team the 3C spot.

They'll prob put that kid with Cros or Malk to get him flying. Funny when you think back to the early 80's, & how close that place was to moving vans. Has landing ONE player ever done so much for one franchise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least not yet. He hasn't even proven himself as a 4C. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now if we could maybe get one of their prospects and a pick, I'd consider it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilduce39 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 It also doesn't make sense to move Sutter right now... I'd rather wait to see how Gaunce progresses and how Gaudette looks - I think he pulls a Boeser and he's with the club by the end of this season. I'd rather keep Bo focused on offence and younger players away from the hard matchups until they're ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I could see Winterpeg dealing a guy like Bryan Little(they retain a % on 4.7 mill/last yr to UFA). Maybe they land a nice Pitt prospect like Sprong, or something? Jets are building young & deep.. outa' conference. Tough for them to attract FA's or sign their own UFA's.

He has yet to play a single NHL game, so I'm not sure why the Penguins would to take the risk to see him as their third line centerman. Sure he was impressive shutting down McDavid, but that's a small sample size that happened in a development league over two years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's kind of stalled in our system, so why not get a second for him? (Although I do understand that the Penguins would rather a much more experienced player.)

D-Money Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Penguins will be searching for an underpaid player. Of all the C's making between $1.5-2.5 million last year, Bonino had the most points. 4th on that list was Calle Jarnkrok, who could be a trade target (but probably less likely since Fisher retired). 9th on that list is the currently unsigned Daniel Winnik. He'd be cheap, and free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Although I do understand that the Penguins would rather a much more experienced player.) Exactly. The Penguins are in win-mode (take a run at more cups) right now. Crosby and Malkin aren't getting younger and are in their 30's. Their recent PTO, Jay McClement, would be a much better option than Cassels. He could possibly replace Matt Cullen, who was a big contributor to their success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, with 0.14 points-per-game so far in the AHL, and a -22, I suspect no one is offering anything for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
