id rather have drouin than tatar.

Good idea give the islanders another 3rd line winger. Not happening bro we dont need/want him.

Both trades have optimistic returns. I doubt MTL even qualifies Lehkonen at this point. Valueless player.

Agreed, he’s also under 30. Not a fit

you forgot Kotkaniemi in the penguins trade.

Imagine trading us a player with under 1000 career games played cringe

Because he is French-Canadian?

no because hes younger and we need a play maker. tatar will be on the wrong side of 30 and will cost more. we have more pressing contracts to worry about in 1-2 years.

So I imagine when the call comes in and the deal is laid out Hextall stops Bergevin from continuing and gives him Rutherfords number. While the Pens probably arent going tanking after this season the whole reason Hextall was brought in was to start stockpiling the AHL/Prospect pipeline. Poulin is arguably our best, or one of our best forward prospects. So to give him up alongside a second and the goalie we are exposing in the Seattle expansion draft? Thats gonna be a no from the Penguins side on all fronts.

pens ask you to take lagere instead of poulin and we add pick.
