<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Yenzer</b></div><div>One of the things that I love about what Dubas has done is add enough depth to create competition. Seems like people are high on Nylander, but he's going to be pushed by Hinostroza and Johnsson, Poulin, and Zohorna. It will be interesting to see Smith and POJ compete, but I think Butcher is a dark horse to win that spot as well. There's also several guys who might be vying for that top six role while Jake is out. This is all so different from last year.

It will also be interesting to see how the PP shakes out. I for one hope they don't take Rakell off the top unit.</div></div>

Yeah there definitely will be a lot of internal competition for bottom 6 spots. I'm interested to see how Poulin does. I hope he wins the spot, but if not then I hope somebody shows something promising, whether that's just some chemistry or play driving.

And as for the PP situation, I agree. I want them to let Letang run his own PP and put Rakell on PP1. I mean just imagine you're the opposing team fending off Sid, Geno, and EK65 for 1:15-30 then you have to deal with Letang, R. Smith, and Rust or whoever on PP2. PP2 might score more than PP1 just because they get the easier matchups. You could even switch it up and roll out PP2 to start lol and let PP1 clean up the scraps if they don't score. We have a lot of good options when it comes to the PP this year.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pens1991</b></div><div>meh, I don't know, i get you're selling high on Toffoli given the year he just had, but the penguins got Rikard Rakell (younger player) for a 2nd, two 4th liners and a meh prospect + Ducks retained 35% who's typically been a 40-50 point per year player in his career similar to Toffoli.

I'd be willing to do it for a 2nd and someone like Legare, or Calgary retains 50% for that 1st lol. Otherwise pass.</div></div>

I don't even think I'd give up the 1st for 50% retained. Like you said a 2nd and a prospect is the best offer. I wouldn't mind Toffoli but I don't think he has a real significant role here. We need good bottom 6 players, not older top 6 guys. I would rather spend that 1st on a top pair/ top 4 D or a goalie
