Lehkonen is not going anywhere for anything below a 2nd. And even there I'd rather keep him

The redwings would like politely decline. While petterson is good, at this time we are not trading picks or prospects. You can have erne for something, but the picks are a no go for this player

We need a better D in return for MP, like Zadorov

Ive had other MTL fans saying he is worth less than Armia and they said 4th. Id rather have Armia if he is avaliable

I agree and would like that

Lehkonen is worth more, like at least a 3rd and he's really liked amongst habs fans so probably won't get traded

Armia would also be somehwere around a 2nd/3rd

Would Armia be moved before Lekhenon?

Probably not, he's better rn and also has Covid

Zadorov isn't better, he's been okish this year (still worse than MP) but was very bad before this yr

Riikola>>>>>>>>>>>>MacDermid

We have a ton of pick so there no reason for us to make that deal except if we have an other deal done and we need money.

For Armia though if Legaré is in the offer, I would listen

I would do if it comes with a conditional pick because we are not trading Lagare for a rental. Maybe Armia and 4th for Lagare and Jankowski (can be buried in minors). Id offer Armia 3 year 2.85 AVV extension after expansion draft

I would probably pull the trigger on that one

Is that contract offer fair for Armia? I would LOVE to get a third line of Tanev-Lowry-Armia in the offseason

It's fair. Armia had ups and down but he's more like a sub 3m guy than anything else tbh. Good 3rd liner but is not what I would consider a good replacement for 1st and 2nd line if injuries occurs

You have the right kind of idea but I don`t know if they are the right players coming back

This year Zadorov has been better. Better defender and a hell of a hitter

Yep, make sense

Marginally at best, and hitting does not make him good... at all... MP has been very underrated this yr as well, nothing flashy, but he's just been solid

Huh? Nothing flashy but solid? Exactly my point. Zadorov has turned his game around the 2nd half of the season. The pens are looking for grit and he certainly brings that. Pettersson is making a little more than he should (I understand hes younger) but this year he hasn't proved anything while Zadorov is putting on a show. Hes not afraid to lay the body and that's what the pens need, someone to defend Crosby.

Zadorov was great last year in the playoffs in physical games for the Avalanche, don't worry, some pens fans want us to get pushed around because its fun to watch angry sid and gino lol

I don't want guys who hit but are (likely) worse players tho, hitting doesn't bring anything for me, and MP isn't really that overpaid (maybe by like 500-750k) and Zadorov def isn't worth 4.5 mil...
