Canes pass. Chychrun would be a lefty luxury for the canes, doesn’t solve our needs, and isn’t going to be the center piece in a return for necas

Canes want a forward to replace Necas I'm pretty sure~

If Ottawa wants Necas they have to be ready to answer questions about Pinto.

If not, probably no deal

I’m sorry what. The pens aren’t moving off of moving off of Harry for anything less than a second or equal value

I'm not a fan of the Pens deal.
Norris is a huge gambe given his contract and injury history. It's not a risk I'm willing to take. Uniting the Joseph brothers is a feel-good story, but Matheiu isn't a significant improvement to our lackluster depth. Even with Smith's poor fit in Pittsburgh, he moves the needle more than Joseph.
Meanwhile, Ottawa gets some cap room, the better pick of the deal, Pittsburgh's best goalie - which fixes the team's biggest issue - and the better winger in the deal.
The only thing the Pens are getting out of this is the deck stacked against them.

OTT flatly declines PIT deal
