<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TJTwolf</b></div><div>You'd need to retain more for the Avs to have an interest there I reckon and that's unlikely to happen for that length of time. Also, what makes you think he'd fair better behind Colorado's D? They don't actually have one if the last few weeks have been anything to go by!!!</div></div>

Well personally you have the best defenceman in the NHL with Makar Toews is solid, I dont know your thoughts on Girard and Mason but thats a good top 4. If you compare it to the Penguins you have Karlsson, Letang, Petterson, and Joseph. Karlsson is a liability on D, Letang is great and then other times really bad, Joseph is very inexperienced, Petterson is a solid top dman. I just think with the Avs structure and stability he'd fair better. I agree that if its more it be tough to retain more salary on that type of term but the Pens will likely start Ned for his 13th straight game I think Jarry's writing is on the wall. You could up it to 1-1.8 million but then the Pens will have to shed salary. If it is between trading Jarry and Graves and retaining salary... I think Pens opt to trade Graves but didn't think value was off maybe just $ retained.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JSEB93</b></div><div>Realistically they are stuck with Granlund I agree - although the buyout is 100% the right move. Jarry isn't staying for a 1 year deal and a pay cut. He has nothing to prove. I like Blueger, but they got rid of him for a reason. If they're going to re-sign him there's no way it's for more money.

I would say the top 6 is slightly worse, bottom 6 maybe slightly better. Defense maybe slightly better, but if POJ has to play his off side on the second pair then I would say about even. Goaltending is obviously the same. Overall I don't think it's enough for this team finish much better.</div></div>

Which I do not disagree with you... on the Granlund part especially. I do think Jarry does have something to prove. I think he hasn't proven he can stay healthy he has been inconsistent. Hasn't won in playoffs and in 8 games has a 891 save %. Wait am I talking myself out of Jarry right now? lol.
Blueger maybe you pay him less but I think it was a mistake to let him go.
Personally the finishing better part...
Do we expect the Penguins to be nothing more if they make playoffs but a wild card team? I don't think they could finish top 3 in the Metro and with making these teams I feel like any move to try to get them into the top 3 is unrealistic in my opinion! But I like your thoughts. Thoughts more on bottom 6 additions?
