Adding a 3rd line center plus other deals

Created by: Hashbrown
Team: 2017-18 Pittsburgh Penguins
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 5, 2017

Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Adding Bozak and Re-sign Cullen(if he doesn't retire or sign somewhere else) gives us a better position and flexibility up in center position. Every game means everything. Carter Rowney is a good 4 liner, but Cullen has proven that he can still play at 40 going on 41 Nov. 2. Bozak played well with Kessel in Toronto and would fit perfectly in the 3rd line with Kessel. With the Pearson-Hornqvist trade I feel getting younger and Pearson still under 25 could be a key with the pens. He could be a great asset to the pens top 6 and Hornqvist contract expires after the 17-18 season. Dumba-Maatta trade I felt like it would give us an extra young right handed Defenseman and gives the pens protection if Letang/Schultz gets injured.

The Pearson trade makes all the sense in the world for Pittsburgh but absolutely zero sense for the Kings...

Don't need another "veteran presence," already got enough of those. And trading any of Pearson, Toffoli, Kempe, or Vilardi would be the dumbest thing on the planet for the Kings. I get it that you are trying to get younger in this, but keep in mind other teams are also trying to get younger, the Kings being one of those teams.

once again, still don't want that... and by getting younger i don't mean trade one of our top two young scorers for someone younger just cuz he's younger... i mean more like sell at the deadline with an expiring contract for prospects and/or picks younger
