It doesn’t matter. You won’t get the return you think you’ll get for Marcus.
Fans always over value their players.

I can see a 2026 1st for Petts. As long as we do not need to take on a cap dump that goes beyond this year.
I was sorry to read about this. This hockey fan wishes the best for Miller and his family, and I hope he is back on the ice soon.

Aww that's not good, really hope he gets through whatever it is and comes back 100%

Depends on the cost, if Ruthervin want to sign Pettersson as a UFA anyways, and they view the cost as negligible, I think there's a good chance they still do it.

A luxury I strongly consider to strengthen that roster as one never knows what injury is around the corner

I feel like Vancouver is going to make a move for Pettersson in the next day or so.
Not that Marcus is bad, but more often than not, he was thrown into that top pairing spot because of Dumoulin falling apart and rushing back from injuries paired with some inconsistent play, the botched job on POJ and others like Pickering not ready yet.
I don't know if that's more or less because of the Pens left side being absolute ass or if Pettersson is truly a top pairing LHD, because I think at best he was a good 2nd pairing LD and on a team like the Jets, 3rd pair LD is pretty insane depth if Pettersson is used that way. For the Canucks he'd be their 2nd pairing LD which they desperately need and want him for.

He 100% plays on the jets 2nd pairing.
Pettersson is a stud.
He's not a PP QB, but he's a number 2 dman and probably your best PK guy for most teams

Definitely someone I wanted to keep but paying him let's say 6 to 6.5 for 7 or 8 years when we probably will suck doesn't make sense. The assets we can get will help us more. Hard for me to say that. Definitely a player I will miss.
2 day break in between games. could make sense or maybe after their 5 game roadtrip?
Pens called up Pickering and have been playing Shea. Petts is on the block as Pens are not likely to extend him. It is all part of the makeover here and Pens are going to develop Pickering.Tthe major moves will come on the off season but Petts is in demand.

Anyone that thinks MP28 is a stud has never watched him and bases their opinion on analytical cards.

What would Pens give up for a team to take on Karlsson contract? Makes for a quick retool this summer.

Beau Akey and the Blues 2nd rd pick 2024 would probably be our best offer. I think Akey is a good fit for the Penguins style, but realistically won't be helpful till 2026/27 at the earliest.

I think this offer is pretty decent. Throw on Skinner to make the cap work and I could actually see that being workable.
Akey doesn't pop off the paper but Wheeler's scouting report of him seems very good and the Blues 2nd should be in the 45-50 range probably.
Weird to see some Penguins fans discussing having “NHL ready players” brought back in a return for MP like it would be a deal breaker if it doesn't happen.
