Sujet: (PIT/CAR) - Guentzel, Smith for Bunting, Koivunen, Ponomarev, Lucius, 2024 2nd (PHI), 2024 5th (CAR)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NorthernLeafsFan05</b></div><div>Wow. This is an absolute fleece job by Carolina. I like Koivunen a lot, Lucius is solid, and Ponomarev is alright, but this is Jake freakin' Guentzel we are talking about. Pittsburgh doesnt even get a 1st unless Carolina makes the SCF. Feels like Dubas could've done so much better, guys like Morrow or Blake or Nadeau would've been far more fair.

For Carolina, this is the superstar they have long wanted. Guentzel is one of the best wingers in this league, and they didnt even have to give up any of their best prospects to get him. Excellent addition and he will thrive in Carolina.

For Pittsburgh, I already mentioned I really like Koivunen and I think Bunting next to Crosby will be very fun, but man this is underwhelming. I doubt Ponomarev or Lucius become much more than bottom 6ers, and they arent really guys you want to kick off your rebuild. This is going to be a tough pill to shallow for Pens fans who rightfully expected much more for a guy who gave his all to the organization for years.

The real winners here are NHL fans who are thrilled Vegas didnt land Guentzel. Heres to hoping they strike out on Buchnevich as well!</div></div>

20 year old putting up .8 ppg in the AHL is ridiculous and he scored two points in two games in NHL this year. How can you think he only has bottom 6 potential??

Sujet: (PIT/CBJ) - Nylander, 2026 6th (PIT) for Bemström
Not a surprise whatsoever, Bemstrom was forever connected to the Leafs when Dubas was GM. I was shocked he didn't put a claim in for Bemstrom when he hit waivers. In fact, I actually made an ACGM team back in November speculating the fit between Bemstrom and Pittsburgh.

I honestly feel like Bemstrom could find new life in Pittsburgh, but this is a player the Pens could've gotten for free instead of parting with a pick and a player (regardless of how little those picks and players really matter). I hope Alex Nylander gets a decent opportunity in Columbus, he's not a bad player. Could be a skilled bottom 6 option, but I doubt he becomes much at this stage in his career. Bemstrom is more likely to be good for the Pens than Nylander with the Jackets IMO

I'm going to say Columbus wins because they got stuff back for a guy that could've been claimed for free just a few months ago, even if the stuff they got back is nearly nothing.

Sujet: What do we think about these scouting reports
This <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/report/nico-hischier-739">Nico Hischier (70) kid</a> sounds mediocre. <em>“Mostly reliable in all three zones”</em> Meh. Cut him.

He is no <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/report/easton-cowan-17">Easton Cowan (85)</a> though. Better in every category as 18-year old.

Or <a href="https://www.capfriendly.com/scouting-reports/report/fraser-minten-20">Fraser Minton (84)</a>…also better in every category.
