Rumour now is that the Pens are looking to move a D man to clear cap and that nobody was biting on Marcus Pettersson. They are listening to offers on Marino. Wonder what he would cost on his own without sending them Miller. I’m sure Allvin and JR are gauging the price. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We would have to take someone like Zucker back in a trade from them for that to work. Maybe throw in Poulin as a sweetener? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have the space to take a cap dump, and Poulin is their best prospect. Highly doubt they'd toss him in any deal to dump cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-AJ- Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Similar to the Letang deal, it's a steal, but a bit long. That said, Letang is better than Malkin at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highly doubt they'd toss him in any deal to dump cap. We do if we move a much more tradable Pearson. Only adds around 1.75 mil on our end. The cost of dumping cap is high. If they wanna be players in free agency they have to pay. Poulin being their best prospect just highlights how bad their pool is. It’s a fair price considering cap dumps cost as much as a 1st.

Guess that takes the Pens out of the market for Miller. 4 years is a bit much term for a player of his age imo, but the cap is is friendly. Fantastic news because the Pens didn’t have many good assets I even wanted for Miller and it takes another center off the market from teams like Washington, NYR, NJD, NYI, Carolina, Columbus, Colorado and even Boston whom all have more enticing packages they could offer.

It’s a fair price considering cal dumps cost as much as a 1st. But it needs to be taken into account that Poulin is likely to be in their lineup on an entry level deal within the next year or two. Having a projected impact player on an entry level contract in and of itself saves cap space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
