Why would LA do that? They don't want Pearson back, not to mention the valuation is off

That's an overpayment on the Pittsburgh trade. Garland should be able to fetch Marino + Kapanen by himself

Pitt declines, take out Poolman and ya got a deal.

No from LA. Players not useful.

Poolman isn't a negative asset. It's an overpay by Vancouver

Why would Philly get a rental player? They are definitely not going to be a contender.

Vancouver doesn't have any cap dumps eh?

Philly not giving up there picks

They do, but Poolman ain't one of them at this time

He absolutely is. He's a 7/8 defenceman making over 2 million. When Schenn can make you look bad, you just aren't an NHL defenceman

You haven't even watched Poolman play, who are you to call him a 7/8 defenseman. For all you know, he could be a top 4 defenseman who is simply a late bloomer. Geezus christ, how ignorant

Schenn was also a legit top 4 defenseman for the Canucks this past season. He wasn't thrust into that role out of necessity, he rightfully earned it

no need for Hoglander in the Marino deal a 1 for 1 would be enough

Changed the Pitt trade
