Generally I agree with dino on this as I don’t think this trade puts Pittsburgh in contention. However, tough to argue it isn’t a good trade for them I think, regardless as to whether or not it means they are auto contender or not- it’s a good move. I can’t believe they got cap space out of this, that’s insane.
Bad trade for San Jose and so far Grier looks pretty lost as a GM.
Other thing I haven’t seen mentioned yet, but, yes the Pens still have Crosby and Malkin but given their age is it even reasonable to assume they won’t get injured? I think there’s like a P90 in that haha
