I still think pens need / will move johnson. That gives them so much cap to add another impact player

Depends on what the trade looks like. His numbers this year are actually perfectly fine for a 6th man, mind you that may be the John marino effect. There’s a couple things to consider, pens already will have a ton of space to work with so they may not want to take a hit to the picks/prospects just to clear space. I think there’s potential for JJ to actually play better over the next year or so before he ages out, it’s kinda sad but because his parents took all his money until he came here and got the big check he literally couldn’t pay for a personal trainer, he’s got one now and I honestly think all that offseason stuff (trainers, dietician, etc) might be a bug part of why he’s playing better now.

He’s starting 58% in his own zone and has a 49% Corsica, and is a +8. I think by the end of the season way may have a player who is not trash at all, but maybe just overpaid by a million/million and a half
