Penguins add guentzel to wings deal

Take out both seconds in the Detroit trade and they might accept. That would be a big maybe in my opinion. If he was worth 2 seconds you wouldn't be trading him.

If I'm Detroit I'd just bid more on Dumba as a UFA than trade for Petry

For ****s sake... Detroit does not want Petry, period.

I'll take petry in Detroit but not at that cost

Take out both 2nds, add Crosby and Guentzel, and then maybe Detroit accepts.

The Athletics model has Petry as a 6M+ worth. Teams give up far more for big RHD every year at deadline that are horrible. Also its not really about Detroit.. could go to several places.

That Korpisalo contract is a big oof in my opinion

You're nuts, even free, he's cooked... there's a reason all these ACGM's are trying to get rid of him... even with half retained AND being paid assets to take him, a declining, breaking down, 37 year old taking up more than 3m in cap in 24-25 is a bad idea for a team that should be aiming for the playoffs as early as next season...

I don't know what the Athletics model is or how they determine value. I would expect probably take points and cost to determine what they are worth compared to past deals. Not factoring in alot of other things that are important to the game. If he's worth 6M then it seems like you guys gave a pretty good player on a pretty good contract and should just keep him.

Agreed. Just treating it like Vanacek.. who I see now was a milly less. but itll cost close to 4 with his LAK play.

For a team in WIN NOW mode, MAYBE they take Petry with retention in hopes he's good for next season, but he does NOT pass the eye test, he looks like he's declining and FAST and age generally doesn't help that being 37 at the end of the deal... I think any team would be nuts to take him on...

Your team paid 4.75M for Ben Chariot.

Fair enough. Damn I didn't know Vanacek got that much lol.

Korpisalo may very well get 4mil - I just personally hope if that's what he costs that the Pens pass and look elsewhere.

All the more reason not to add another bad contract, but sick burn bro-dawg, you totally got me, hurr hurr hurr, flarp

insert mic drop

He's not plan A but it could be a lot worse

I wouldn't pay one 2nd for Petry. nvm two...
