Default Pens get Gio Cashed

The Pens hooked up with the Blues today and hammered out a deal. We had been trying to upgrade our goaltending to no avail, so we decided to change direction and upgrade the Def. Gio does that.


Going to St Louis is:

1stpho, Radulov, Noah Juulsen and Emil Andrae


Coming to PIttsburgh is
Gio
Suitcase full of cash

Its a deal that makes sense, if I don't sign Radulov, then he drops 8 million off of the payroll next year, or I can try to move him this year.


He does have good stats esepcially for scoring so I can add some more scoring into my lineup.


Gio going hurts, but I get three futures out of it as well, I also have some players I can try on the bottom pair, I still have a fairly good blueline, MAF might need to carry more weight though.

Good trade guys! Really like the return Captain got, but adding a player of Gio’s caliber is potentially huge

For some reason, Cheese and me always seem to make fairly quick trades. I have to give credit to HL for his pitch today, it made me laugh pretty hard.
