Nobody. Murray should be untouchable for the Pens.

Lol noooo Murray is good no doubt but Pens would have to add to that, but we are just talking about things never going to happen. As to the original proposal I would take it although I always liked the Flower. Dont think the Blues could fit under the cap, I thought we were really close

Woah. Hold on. What deal are you talking about?

Shatty + parayko + fabbri? Yes the pens add to murray and a 1st. For sure .. and it would be a pretty good add. Parayko is unreal.

If you are talking about shatty for murray .. you are out of your mind if you think the pens add to that.

I think he's referring to Allen + Gunnarson for Flower

Yeah the Fabbri Parayko deal was what the person I quoted was talking about, Of course Shatty would not net Murray

While I think Pittsburgh "wins" here in terms of getting a good backup/potential starter to pair with Murray and a serviceable d-man, I don't see them doing this. I think they really like MAF.

As a pens fan, I say FU .. cause you may be right.

In no universe do you trade murray. Except if you are Pittsburgh. I hope to God they aren't this stupid but .. I don't know. I'm rather fearful.

As a Sharks fan I say FU... because of the SCF.

:laugh:

I think they like Murray too. You never really know what a GM is thinking though.

Can you provide more detail on that?

Murray is awesome but the Pens not trading him for Fabbri, Parayko, Shattenkirk and a 1st is insane. I mean, Kirk posted it as a joke because it was a ridiculous proposal in Pittsburgh's favor.

I just think it's funny when people on here overvaule a player so much that they claim they wouldn't trade them for anything.

Not interested in Gunnarsson.

If you're thinking of MAF for Allen+ I can't find any + that really entices me on the St. Louis roster.

Agree, no interest in Gunnarsson.

Why look for a + to that? Do MAF for Allen straight up. If Jake gets picked in the draft, that is a win for us. Otherwise, we would have a pretty good one-two and save money too boot. Everyone is infatuated with the plus. There doesn't need to be one. This is more about trading Fleury so Murray is saved and saving some cap room, which will be needed.

It's not only about value across the league tho. It's about value to a specific team.

If the pens trade murray, they retain maf and continue with the same struggles as they have been for the last few years. Murray is a stud, no doubt. But his value to the PENS specifically IS near untouchable (or should be).

At this point, other than a true stud goalie, I wouldn't trade him for shatty and parayko. I can see why others would, no doubt. But I personally wouldnt.

Edit. OK wait. The players you mentioned werent the original offer. It was shatty parayko fabbri for murray and a 1st. Then I agreed thay the pens would have to add to that. So your post is misleading.

Um...no my post isn't misleading.

Here's the original post I was referring to that was posted as a joke and clearing list all the pieces I mentioned. I responded to a poster that quoted the post below.

Shattenkirk+Parayko+Fabbri+1st for Murray. Who adds?

How about something around Olli Maatta for Kevin Shattenkirk?

Shattenkirk is obviously a good player, but I think any team paying him the money he will want (and has earned, I suppose) would need to give him a signifiant PP role.

We player 1 D and four forwards, and even if KS might be a better QB than Kris Letang, and I think he is, while inferior in everything else, there is no way Letang's role there is diminished.

Hence we would not utilize Shattenkirk like he should be, and with that I think it would be a shame for the Pens to go for him. In something approaching good form/fitess, Maatta is a significantly better DEFENDER than Shattenkirk, and we need that more, IMO.
