<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Buffalove</b></div><div>I go to Pens games (in Pittsburgh) every single year- i have family in the Pittsburgh area
And i often cheer for them in the playoffs, since my Sabres have been terrible

Zucker is beat up &amp; has missed significant time 3 years in a row now- missing half the season or more in the last 2 years

U really think you’re gonna get something, for a 30+ year old goal scorer, who:
-doesn’t score at the rate he used to (scores at about a 15goal per full season pace now)
-misses half the season with injury
-costs a 5.5mil cap hit (eliminating many teams that simply can’t fit him in)
-and has a 10years NTC which eliminates even more teams

🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sure pal, good luck with that

He’s a Cap dump
PIT will have to pay to get rid of him</div></div>

Well thanks for clarifying that you don’t watch the pens. That was pretty obvious before though lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Buffalove</b></div><div>It’s not that far off

Dumoulin gets you a 2nd at best, maybe only a 3rd
What’s Hornqvist worth at half price? A 3rd?
So that swap is close to being even

And to get rid of Zucker, it’s gonna cost you a 2nd
So less that a 1st, but not too far off


Your counter proposal is straight up trolling</div></div>

It won’t cost anything to get out of Zuckers contract lol. Anyone that thinks it would simply doesn’t watch hockey outside of their own team. But it’s par for the course here when it comes to pens players lol. They said it would take at least a 2nd to get rid of Gudbranson, at least a 2nd to get rid of Bjugstad, at least a 1st to get rid of Hornqvist, etc. The pens always seem to find a way to not have to pay to get rid of player. Zucker is better than all of those players. Why would the pens spend a 1st and a top 4 defenseman just to bring back Hornqvist? Who by the way they traded because he doesn’t fit here anymore. He is way too slow.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WhyWait</b></div><div>Yeah, the guy that ignores Hallander and the 1st because they haven't played a game yet tells me that I am using EA Sports logic. You need to Google both "logic" and "strawman".</div></div>

I didn’t ignore them. They haven’t played a game for the team and possibly never will whether they are here or not. And even if they would, Hallander’s ceiling is a solid bottom 6 and a late first is likely a middle 6 player. Miller is a top line player that is a ppg + player and has positional flexibility. Poolman gives the team another veteran RHD. All for a guy that has played what? Like 80 games in 2.5 seasons with the pens, a prospect who has yet to play a game for the team and whose ceiling is bottom 6, a late 1st rounder that’s no guarantee, and a 2nd pair RHD who may get better but may not. But you stick to your ea logic while the rest of us know you have to give something up to get something.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>WhyWait</b></div><div>I noticed that I said Moran above. I would have zero problem trading Ian Moran and a 1st to Vancouver for Miller.

I would see Miller and Trocheck as "or" options, not "and". They are both centers. People have been suggesting moving Malkin to wing for years,but centers tend to be centers. Also, your trade is not upgrading Zucker to Miller. It is giving FAR too much for a very good player. (I like Miller)

You can still sign Lyubushkin and still have Marino, 1st, etc, etc. Heck, trade Marino for an actual "winger" and then you still have the 1st, etc.
Trocheck, Lyubushkin, actual top-6 "winger", 1st, Kapanen, etc.

People (mostly Vancouver fans) have a singular focus of a Miller/Marino based deal for some reason. Pittsburgh fans have seen it so many times on here that recently they have started doing it too. Amazingly they are almost all the same overall packages, copy/paste much? Some Pensfansare also blinded by adesire to move Zucker. You've managed to bring back a worse contract than Zucker while also retaining on Zucker.

Miller, Poolman for Zucker (-$2.75), Hallander, Marino, 1st &lt;- While Miller is the best single piece of this deal, this is NOT a good deal for the Penguins overall. They are lesser after the trade than before.</div></div>

The difference between Malkin and Miller is that Miller also plays wing, Malkin doesn’t. Trocheck also plays wing too.
You can’t sign Lyubushkin and have Marino too because you do have to abide by the cap lol. Poolman’s contract isn’t bad lol it’s 2.3 million for a 3rd pair dman that can play 2nd pair for short periods of time. You can never have too many nhl capable dmen.
