Confirmed Trade: [NSH/PIT] Jordan Frasca for Cody Glass, MIN '25 3rd, '26 6th

Love it. Whos next?

Kyle Dubas doing the lord’s work today

 

[MTL Dirty Birdy]

Im not sold on Dubas, but I’ll give him this. This is an absolute steal of a trade as is. Glass has untapped potential assuming he can be healthy. Playing with the likes of Crosby and Mallon will most likely help him reach that next level

Forgot about Cody Glass. Still remember my friend who thinks he is a hockey guru argue with me for months about how the Canucks should draft Glass. I wanted Pettersson. He was pissed when we drafted my guy

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Jesus, Glass is 25 already?

 

[DJB]

They needed to make space for Tomasino and Pärssinen

Nsh saw what happened to Edm today and said we better take care of that lol

 

[herzausstein]

That answers my question. Cost us a 3rd and a 6th to dump a season of glass.

 

[wej20]

Am I going to hate him more than Tanner Glass?

 

[Turin]

2nd, 3rd, 6th, Kevin Hayes and Cody Glass for nothing. Not bad.

 

[DesertPenguin]

I'd have paid a minor asset to take a chance on Glass. I'll happily get paid to do it. Frasca is.... A contract.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Frasca hits stuff, punches things and gets hurt alot.

Me too. Im in IT though.

 

[Chainshot]

Who doesn't love a refreshing Fresca?

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

I think I'm among the last ones here who still loves Glass' potential to contribute in this league.

Hope it works well for him in Pittsburgh.

You and me both. But with the way things have been trending for the Pens these last couple of seasons, Glass probably ends up being hurt the entire time.

The Doobler strikes again

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Actually love what Dubas is doing with the Hayes and Glass trades. Getting picks on top of free players that could potentially be flipped at the deadline for more picks if necessary.

Got to love it.

As long as Pens fans are happy with the picks they should feel good about it. They won't get much out of Glass, his name tells you his issue and why he was traded.

 

[TootooTrain]

Jesus, Glass is 25 already?

Hes gonna be the reverse of sam gagner

 

[seanlinden]

Not sure how you can't love this trade from Pittsburgh's perspective.

25 year old player with a great draft pedigree that has untapped potential for $2.5m...

AND, you get a 3rd + 6th round pick for taking him on?

Works out, you've stolen him for nothing. Doesn't work out? let him walk.

I don't know much about Jordan Frasca, but seems to be that he's simply a contract-spot trade

 

[Empoleon8771]

The Penguins have done a terrific job at acquiring picks this off-season without giving up anything of substance,

It's a great win-win for the Pens. Best case scenario is Glass actually works out, but even if he doesn't it's a couple of picks for a player (Frasca) who probably won't ever be a good AHL player, let alone a good NHL one.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

All your 3rd round picks are belong to us.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Can someone explain what the Preds are doing here?

Seems an absurdly lopsided deal

They needed the cap space badly and paid to remove it.
