Taxi squad shows forwards who would appear in the lineup at some point next year.

I seriously doubt the Canes will being paying to dump KK. They can re-sign everyone they need with him still on the team, and if they traded him they would need to fill his spot down the middle anyway.

Worst case scenario they buy him out as U25 buyouts are cheaper against the cap, but I still think that is unlikely to happen.

4th line centres arent hard to replace

No from Florida, don’t need nor want Smith

Pay Jack Drury half of that to be a 4C.

the only trade here that works for the penguins is the NYI trade.
The rest is pure trash.

Well the point wouldn’t be to improve the team if you’re rebuilding and getting picks.

but your just making horribly bad decisions like trading away a solid B prospect in Broz and DOC for a horrible contract in Kotkaniemi that they have to carry for 6 years for basically nothing.
No thanks.
These are horrible moves.

KK is a better player than either one of them are going to be. He’s a very good 3C who’s ever so slightly overpaid. Is that all you’re upset about? Because getting all those picks back requires moving players and in some cases taking back cap.

no one wants 3rd liners wrapped up for 6 years. Let alone ones that are as you put it, over paid.
How hard is that to understand.
Why give this team another anchor. Have you learned nothing?

In general it's just bad move after bad move.
Grubauer another 6 mil in dead cap for another 3 years. Great that will help the team.

I mean really, it's trash.

You don’t seem to understand the point was to make the team worse do you? That’s how you acquire picks, by taking on cap.

You don't need to ruin the team for the next 6 years or make horribly bad decisions to "make the team worse" now do you.
This is bad and that is all there is to it,
Just brilliant move after brilliant move.
Like taking on 3 years of Kämpf cap waste contract for nothing.

At what point do you realize you made trash

That’s how you get lottery picks dude. You’re either a contender or you are bad. Middle of the road is the worst place to be.

spoken like a true fan.
Now grow up realize it's a business and selling tickets middle of the road is a whole lot more important than your "fan" bs.

Sorry but that’s not how it works in Pittsburgh. Learn more about the team you’re supposedly a fan of.

you must be high.
It's always been about making money.
Especially for FSG
