It's been finalized. The new Pittsburgh GM had Bartschi in his sights since taking over, and finally reached a deal with NJ to secure him along with Gaunce.
Pending approval:
To Pitt: Sven Bartschi + Gaunce + Hejda + Jenks
To NJ: JVR + Faulk + Sullivan + Kubalik + Zlobin
NJ bolster for a deep playoff run and get a long term asset in JVR. The Pitt rebuild is almost complete, and with Crosby mentoring Sven and Yakupov they will be a force in a few years.
