Jesse Puljujarvi for Rust

Gudbranson, Johnson, Rust, Hornqvist, Jarry, 2020 1st (Combined about 15 mill) for Pageau + Boedker + Ryan(retain 2.25 mill) + Boro (total 13 mill)

Not enough for Rust. Nurse for Rust is better.

I can see by your username you are very good at evaluating players.

how about mcdavid?

john moore and a 5th for rust.

Hudon + 2020 6th vs Johson + 2020 3rd

I'll give you a 7th for Puljujarvi and a 4th.

Hornqvist to Nashville for Jarnkrok, 4th round pick in 2020 and Matt Irwin

I heard this was offered and GMJR didn't take it......Maybe if Edm added a 3rd or 4th.

nope

I would take this!

agreed

i wouldn't take it either, but rust isn't exactly on a great contract.

agreed but still worth more than an older, slower Moore. Plus it doesn't save much in salary

I mean, Moore is a year older than Rust, and he isn't slow. He's not going to skate like Torey Krug or Kris Letang, but he isn't slow. Honestly I think a 28 year old d man is younger than a 27 year old forward in NHL terms, if you know what i mean.

I'll admit I haven't seen much of him. Also if anything, the Pens need a RD not a LD. After Schultz gets traded this year, which I suspect he will, the Pens only have Letang and Guds (hopefully traded as well). So they really need more RD.

can i interest you in kevan miller? Ya okay nevermind.

GMJR already hung the phone up on that. It equates to Bust for Good player.

Yea I was thinking if Edm added a 3rd it would be worth the risk. Even if JP is a bust, Pens still get something. But if JP turns it around and becomes the player everyone thought he could be....Pens win BIG!

the penguins aren't a bottom feeder team, they don't need to risk that. They aren't giving up a solid player for a gamble.
