Trade Poulin and San Jose's 2026 3rd for Robertson's RFA rights please.
That's the exact kind of thing Dubas said he'd do with the added picks.
OR, we do what you proposed originally...Jarry for Robertson.
Makes more sense for us, if not Toronto.
I don’t know why but I’m feeling a massive bounce back year from Graves.. no reason, just a hunch.. ala Paul Martin. I be extremely content with no adds to the roster tomorrow/ bargain hunting after all the money is gone. We really need to start putting faith in our younger guys in the bottom 6
DOC - Sid - Rust
Bunting - Geno - Rakell
Smith - Ponomarev - Koivunen
Puljujarvi/Eller/Hayes - Eller/Hayes - Acciari
Pettersson - Karlsson
Graves - Letang
Ludvig - St. Ivany
Ned
Jarry
Just my two cents
Depends how many forwards you're carrying. I'm assuming a full 23 man roster.We have closer to 6 mil I believe.
Wonder if Dubas helps TB out taking a bad contract with a pick added so TB keeps Stamkos? Like the Hayes deal. We are officially that team now.
We can go over the cap a little and figure things out later.I don't think the Penguins have the roster spots to be able to do that with anyone else.

We do. But not sure who else Tampa would move
Hayton, Brannstrom, and Robertson would be exactly the types of players Dubas has been talking about. Definitely something to watch, especially if they can move out Smith and/or Acciari or more.
If they're going to play, I don't really see a spot without moving other guys out. Which was a major point of my past comments about moving expensive contracts out for cap dumps.
Right now, they seem to be sitting with:
O'Connor-Crosby-Rust
Bunting-Malkin-Rakell
Smith-Eller-Puustinen
Poulin-Hayes-Acciari
Puljujarvi-XXXXX
Pettersson-Karlsson
XXXX-Letang
Graves-St. Ivany
XXXXX
Jarry-Nedjelkovic
I don't really see a ton of spots to take on bad deals without sending out their own bad deal. A partner for Letang is the most obvious open spot, but that's about it.
Brannstrom's like 25 years old now. He is what he is....not that great. Robertson's the most interesting of the 3 even if he's a midget.Hayton, Brannstrom, and Robertson would be exactly the types of players Dubas has been talking about.

Siri, tell me what this wanker is saying. Thanks.Pourquoi est-ce que tu n'aimes pas les Québécois?
I think they’ll re-sign him. He’s young still, will come cheap and he was at times above Graves on the depth chart, especially late. Not much to lose, he’s a 3rd pairing guy at worst.POJ was solid down the stretch imo. Guess they were scared of his arb award.

Agree. We’ve seen what POJ can do here, and it doesn’t move the needle. I’d rather give someone else a look.Kinda glad POJ wasn't qualified. He's lower-middle-tier "meh" at everything. He's not bad. He's just not good.
