Holy shit what is happening

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Um okay

 

[Empoleon8771]

I am very confused. They traded Desharnais for a 5th to just bring in Schenn? Uh what?

I get targeting Novak but Schenn is weird.

No chance Schenn isn’t flipped, right?

Maybe he’ll be flipped?

 

[Andy99]

I don’t understand this trade…it’s like a trade just to make a trade

 

[Turin]

Schenn is going to Toronto, Vegas, Winnipeg or Dallas by Friday I'm sure.

I actually like Tommy Novak, though he should be on Vegas in honour of the town of Novac.

 

[Jag68Sid87]

Novak is a center by trade, although he has also played LW a lot this season. He is a late-bloomer, 27 years old (our specialty). Makes less than Bunting but with more term. I don't hate it, but I too am confused here.

I was not expecting Bunting to get moved but Dubas is definitely working late today.

 

[Duffy13]

Seem like lateral moves so far, I am not familiar with Novak

 

[Andy99]

I get Bunting moving but not for that return

I'm just happy Dumbo is doing something

 

[Snooki Stackhouse]

But why? Not getting (much) younger and it's just trading middle six guy for different middle six guy.

[Malkinstheman]

Feels like there's alot of moving pieces behind the scenes

 

[Genetic]

The first little bit of snarl we get and hes traded away lol

 

[Deport Ogie]

I can't imagine Schenn even has time for a cup of coffee here. Perhaps an after dinner mint or two then he's back out the door.

 

[ThosePuckingPenguins]

I can absolutely see Schenn being dealt to acquire more draft pick(s).

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Very hot take- not dominoes and we are keeping both.

 

[ncm7772]

Maybe the return is bait to get more picks?

 

[SEALBound]

If you move Rakell, you move Malkin to wing. Then you need a new 2C. Enter Novak. I like that kid.

Schenn 100% being flipped.

 

[Turin]

It's not like the Pens couldn't theoretically use them.. if they wanted to be ok next year. Novak is a decent 3C and Schenn is definitely something the Pens do not have. But that requires like 6 more moves to really make sense.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

I don't get this one

Feels like there's alot of moving pieces behind the scenes

I hope so because the ones moving in front of the scenes are pretty f***in bizarre

 

[wheelz87]

Uhh not sure about this one
