Connor Brown to the Oil. Gotta improve that Connor/60 metric.

TSN is now saying it is not a done deal yet.
Nieto was also supposed to have signed with the Oilers and last second went to the Pens.

Edmundson traded to Washington for a 3rd and 7th

JVR to the Broons, 1 year $1 million. When you win the President’s Trophy with an old roster, clearly making your team even older means more trophies.

JVR 1 year $1million to Boston

Wow!

ROR Nashville 4 years $4.5mill

Josi breathes a sigh of relief. He’s got someone besides Forsberg to pass to now.

Surprised ROR didn't get more. I don't get ROR or Schenn appeal with Nashville they aren't going to be good unless Trotz makes a lot of moves.

I think the 4th year brought the amount down. Probably had higher offers but 3 years.

So far, these deals are very Penguins favorable. Seems like GMs are actually practicing restraint for once.

There's a secondhand report that Weekes said a team may be trading a 6th for DeSmith.

I’m sure the strong Rangers leadership group will be able to handle a guy who destroyed Winnipeg through sheer force of will.

“DeSmith for DeSixth”.

1 year, $800 cap hit

I don't understand the desire to trade DeSmith. He is a fine backup and his price isn't bad.

Lebrun saying Andersen and Carolina working on a deal.

Varlamov back to NYI

Couple of goalie options gone.

Because we can't run it back with the same team. Still sounds 50/50 on Jarry. If he comes back, we need something better than DeSmith behind him.

Jonathan Quick is officially a Ranger. 825k plus bonuses.

Yea, I agree. If we are bringing back Jarry, I would be fine with a new backup. I was assuming Jarry is gone

He’s a fine backup is the key thing you said and if the Penguins had a workhorse who can play 50-60 games he’d be fine. Problem is, who can the Penguins get that’ll match that criteria?

I think they’ll go into next season with a goalie tandem and DeSmith just doesn’t work in that kind of scenario.
