This right here is the best Penguins team I’ve ever made.

Mantha Trade: Mantha has one of the strongest shots in the league and has turned into a true sniper/power forward. If he clicks with Crosby he would be a new improved version of Phil Kessel who can also protect Crosby and dominate other players with his big stature. Mantha is a very talented offensive player but also a talented defensive player. Trading 28 year old Zucker (3 years older) for Anthony Mantha. Zucker dominated on the Penguins and especially with Crosby. I know someone is going to say he only played that well because of Crosby. That helps a ton but he did create many opportunities on his own, which contributed to his great point production in the short regular season span he was on the Penguins for. Simon is already a high potential top-9 player who can play on a cheap $1,500,000-$2,500,000 per year contract. Legere is just the icing on the cake. Adding a prospect with high potential entices DET that much more. All around this trade helps both teams immensely.

Gostisbehere Trade: Shane Gostisbehere is the offensive defenseman the Penguins need to help create rushes and contribute on the PP. Yes, his his defensive game lacks trust, he makes up for it with his stellar offense. PIT will reignite his offensive flame. Jack Johnson is a cap relief, but who can still play and contribute as a 3rd pair defender. Shedding 1+ million of Ghostisbehere’s contract saves PHI cap space and also gives them a 2nd round pick as well as a talented young 3rd-4th line player who can contribute on both ends.

Murray and Jarry get prove yourself contracts. Murray is paid more due to what he’s accomplished in such a short span. Jarry gets a one year prove yourself contact.
