Thread: Getting Duchene
I went with that trade considering most of the rumors have that being what would be needed to get duchene. Sakic wants youth in return. Not a big Zotto fan either, but if that trade would go through and the pens lose maatta, then something needs to be done on the defense to fill the spot and I believe del zotto made like 3.75 range last year. He just turned 27, so he's not going to be looking to take a pay cut just because he'd be on a team that has a good chance at a cup. Also not sure Pouliot is going to pan out, at least not with the pens. He was a stud in portland, avg in WBS, and hasn't shown much when brought up for the pens. I think ruhwedel is a nice piece to have and could potentially fill an injury to one of the top 6 nicely ( and he showed that he's not afraid to shoot), Gaunce was hit or miss. I do think someone needs to be brought in to add to the defense though. Streit is gone, daley is gone, not sure what hainsey will be doing (id retire if i were him). When it comes to free agent D (assuming the trade happens and maatta is gone, idk who would be good options. Smith signed with rangers, not sure what's going to happen with stone in CGY. If i were the pens, i'd also be a bit worried about letang's future. A stroke and neck surgery aren't any minor injuries, he could finish his career much earlier than most think
