_____________________________________________
NEW "ROSTER" PLAYERS BROUGHT IN ~ {Via : TRADE or UFA} :
1}- [UFA] ~ G- LINUS ULLMARK #25 (35) ~ {Signed - 1yr @ $2.6m Per} : Signed w/ opp. to be 1A or 1B on a better team. 6'-4"/ 215 huge Ullmark is a very underrated Goalie who's got better every year in NHL but stuck on bad team & could be a steal.
2}- [Trade] ~ C/RW- ADAM GAUDETTE #88 ~ {RFA Signed - 2yrs @ $975,k Per} : Big fan of the 6'-1"/ 195lb Gaudette, & still think he can still be a great bottom 6 C/RW or maybe a #3 future Center.
3}- [Trade] ~ RW/C- SAM REINHART #23 ~ {RFA Signed - 3yrs @ $5.75m Per} : To get a 25yr old Top winger in his hockey prime is so rare. IMO the 6'-1"/ 205lb RWer could be great here & plays RW exactly how Sid wants his wingers to play.
4}- [Trade] ~ RHD- RASMUS RISTOLAINEN #55 : This is the definition of what the Pens need, a 6'-4"/ 220lb D-man that will decapitate Forwards. Plus as a #4-#6, I bet he plays much better (Ceci).
5}- [UFA] ~ LHD- JAKE McCABE #9 ~ {UFA Signed - 1yr @ $1.25m Per} : The UFA steal of year, 6'-1"/ 205lb LHD is a very good Off. & Def. D-man stuck on bad team & always reminded me of a Penguin type Dman. Will be 100% healthy after ACL & missing yr.
6}- [Trade] ~ LW- LAWSON CROUSE #67 : The Pens land their 6'-4"/ 220lb physical LWer, at 23 is just entering his hockey prime & is already a good 2-way player & plays on Top PK.
7}- [UFA] ~ C- DEREK STEPAN #21 ~ {UFA Signed - 1yr @ $1.2m Per} : 71 out 1st month of season, Stepan, a perfect fit at 3C, being a 1C or 2C his entire career. Minor shoulder surgery, will be 100%.
8}- [Trade] ~ LW- MASON MARCHMENT #27 (19) : The 6'-4"/ 215lb physical 4th liner to #13 Forward would give Pens size to forward group, when needed.
9}- [UFA] ~ LHD- IAN COLE #28 : {UFA Signed - 1yr @ $1.1m Per} : At this point of career Cole would be a Perfect #7 & knows he would still get playing time here w/ our constant injuries.

NEW "PROSPECTS" ADDED {Via TRADE} :
1}- LW- Dylan HOLLOWAY #4 --------------------- 6'-1"/ 205lb 19yr old & My fav prospect last yr in Draft. Is a Faster more skilled Chris Kreider. As Soph. @ WIS - 23GP - 11G - 35P.
2}- C/RW- Mackenzie ENTWISTLE #44 ----------- 6'-3"/ 190lb 20yr old, Reminds me of a Pens Prospect, a great 2-way player & can play Center or RW. Is very close, played 5 NHL gms.
3}- LW/C- Jan JENIK #21 ----------------------------- 6'-1"/ 20yr old, former 3rd Rdr has had injury issues but if healthy is a legit Top 9 NHLer very soon.
4}- LHD- Dmitri SAMORUKOV #78 --------------- 6'-2"/ 190lb 22yr old former 3rd Rdr is a solid prospect that could be a #5 to #7 D-man in NHL in a cpl yrs.
5}- RW- Tyler BOUCHER ----------------------------- {21'- 2nd Rd pick} #44 [CHI] 6'-1"/ 205lb 18yr old Most Physical player in Draft but also very skilled.
6}- RHD- Logan MAILLOUX -------------------------- {21'- 2nd Rd pick} #58 [PIT] 6'-3" / 215lb 18yr old could be a Top 4 RHD-man

So Buffalo gets next to nothing for Reinhart and they have to retain half of Risto’s contract? I think not. Even if the deal did go through, add about $1.5 million to the contract you gave Reinhart and it’s closer.
EDM can't afford to do this.
They can't afford to give away Holloway and a 1st round pick.
Their fan base will kill them if they chase McDavid out of town.

I just LOVE Holloway, wanted Pens to draft him so badly bf we traded our pick.
I really like SR & bet he would be great here but if he is worth 7m then Jake is worth 8.5m
Then it’s a good thing you got Guentzel to sign for less than market value. Sam Reinhart gets at least $6.5 million per season on his next multi year contract. I’ll be very surprised if it’s less than that.

That is a fair statement But as an organization.... I cant see us paying him more, maybe the same at 6m?
