GDT: TRADE DEADLINE - Pittsburgh Penguins Only

[Kristopher Letang]

Wtf bro i wanted to go to bed

I stopped going to bed the night of a deadline after the Iginla trade.

Everything is gonna happen now because it’s been way too calm!

 

[StaalForOne]

conditional picks + retained salary

 

[SomeDude]

Why else are we dealing for Carter unless we are getting picks back on top of it?

Because he’s a decent bottom 6 guy with the ability to chip in offensively, has won 2 cups with our current GM, and probably (hopefully) cost very little?

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Coburn is still an NHLer. TIL

 

[Darren McCord]

sounds like he is coming cheap hopefully

 

[Ugene Magic]

That's a funny way to spell Iafallo....

 

[Gurglesons]

sounds like he is coming cheap hopefully

Yeah. Hopefully.

 

[pensfansince88]

scott hartnell next?

 

[Andy99]

A RW to play with Zucker would be nice IF they were willing to break up BART (GOAT centers L4, TB L3, and McCann to L2 LW).

Or you play Carter at center on L3 and Gaudreau is not playing regularly and you have ERod or Angello or X at RW on that line and keep BART...question is whether you want EROd playing regularly or Gaudreau....but might be moot depending on his injury

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I wonder what we gave up for a washed up Carter.

 

[Malkinstheman]

I love that Bob came back from retirement for 2 mins and dropped a trade that no one else had any idea about.

 

[KIRK]

Ya there not gone knee jerk and get Carter if Malkin is out long term. if anything I feel they would be less active

Bingo.

Look, it's a knee. COULD Malkin have a setback? Sure. BUT I expected a C/W all along.

 

[Darren McCord]

Why else are we dealing for Carter unless we are getting picks back on top of it?

because he is another right handed shot with experience and familiar with Hextall.

 

[KIRK]

Bingo.

Look, it's a knee. COULD Malkin have a setback? Sure. BUT I expected a C/W all along.

 

[Ryder71]

Guarantee we hear something about Malkin set back tomorrow.

I don't think so.

 

[Gurglesons]

Bingo.

Look, it's a knee. COULD Malkin have a setback? Sure. BUT I expected a C/W all along.

So what? You’re thinking..

McCann - Malkin - Carter? Or Carter at 3C?

 

[K Fleur]

If it’s Just conditional picks with retention then I don’t hate it.

 

[Beauner]

Not even joking, I'd rather have gaudreau in the lineup than Carter.
He's been playing with the kind of desperation that you need

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Sorry Jank. You had a good last few games bruh

 

[Darren McCord]

So what? You’re thinking..

McCann - Malkin - Carter? Or Carter at 3C?

McCann- Malkin - Kap
Zucker - TB - Carter

 

[Gurglesons]

Not even joking, I'd rather have gaudreau in the lineup than Carter.
He's been playing with the kind of desperation that you need

Gaudreau got hurt tonight.

Bet it is why they made this move.

 

[TimmyD]

How long until @Pens x comes in guns blazing and whining bout “sleepy” Hextall trading for a former Flyer?

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I don't think this means Geno's had a setback. Maybe someone from the bottom-6 is dealt for a depth blueliner?

Really don't know where Carter fits. Cost aside, whatever, where do you play the guy?

 

[AuroraBorealis]

How long until @Pens x comes in guns blazing and whining bout “sleepy” Hextall trading for a former Flyer?

Yeah and with another former team of Hex's.

I wonder if he even tried for Hall or someone else.

 

[Ryder71]

Is he playing more center than Wing?

 

[KIRK]

So what? You’re thinking..

McCann - Malkin - Carter? Or Carter at 3C?

I'm thinking PLAN A is McCann-Malkin-Kap and Zucker-Carter-EROD

IF McCann doesn't fly there, then McCann and Carter flip as PLAN B.

They don't think Malkin and Zucker work as far as I've gathered.
