Équipe: 2019-20 Penguins de Pittsburgh

Date de création initiale: 2 juin 2019

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Zaitsev going to Pittsburgh kinda makes sense to me. For Gudbranson, with only two years left at $4mill vs. Five years at $4.5mill. But the Pens taking Zaitsev’s full contract might be a huge risk for them, maybe TOR retains his contract for $500k. In my mind, the trade would look like this:

Nikita Zaitsev ($4mill), Connor Brown ($2.1mill)

For

Erik Gudbranson ($4mill), Dominik Simon ($750k) & a 4th round pick (2019)

Zaitsev could be mentored by Gonchar and Geno, and could perhaps bounce back. Thoughts? Or would you prefer that I don’t retain Zaitsev’s contract?
