I can't see any team willing to give Toronto their literal future for one player. I know he's talking tough there, but no player is worth four firsts unless you're somehow trying to get McDavid or young Crosby.

Out of all the SB Nation Pittsburgh sports sites, I would say it’s the worst.
Alternatively, Bucs Dugout is solid.

This is not the Ray Shero I knew
Devils GM Ray Shero on possible 2019 offer sheets. "We all know what the CBA is. There is no gentleman's agreement. F--- that s---. When people say that, it's a lazy narrative, I'll tell you that. "
Spoken like a man whose ass is probably on the hot seat.
Out of all the SB Nation Pittsburgh sports sites, I would say it’s the worst.

I miss some of the writers who got the boot recently, but definitely still find it to be a solid site. Pensburgh has too much of the new generation, "Why can't we all be friends?", "Botterill made all of the good decisions!" crowd.

The performance bonus of a single player (Jake) put the Pens over the cap last season and the team will carry a Capfriendly calculated $132,500 penalty against the cap in 2019-20.

Report: Penguins listening to offers for LetangThe Pittsburgh Penguins are listening to trade offers for defenseman Kris Letang, sources told The Athletic's Rob Rossi.
Pittsburgh has told interested teams that any potential deal would need to involve a package including an "impact player on a controllable contract and/or a projected future salary-cap hit that was reasonable," Rossi adds.
Penguins general manager Jim Rutherford has already been active in trade talks since his club's playoff run ended in a first-round sweep. A deal that would have sent Phil Kessel to the Minnesota Wild was reportedly nixed by the veteran winger, and Rutherford went on to say he no longer expects to trade the sniper.
Letang continues to be a top defenseman when healthy and has spent his entire 13-year career in Pittsburgh. He notched 16 goals and 40 assists while averaging nearly 26 minutes per contest in 65 games last season.
The 32-year-old has three seasons remaining on his current contract, which carries a $7.25-million cap hit and an 18-team list of destinations he'd accept a trade to.
Yeah, yeah - "of course we'll listen to offers on virtually anyone", and yeah, yeah "Rossi!". But it's Friday, and dodint needs his spirits raised after he was told that he looks like a swollen Josh Hartnett.

I just don't see them moving Letang unless they're looking for someone to drastically over-pay. There's nobody in our system that can replace him, and there's nobody in FA worth over-paying for. If they do trade Letang for what is seemingly being asked for, the entire team needs to clean GM house.

I'm also on the I can live without Letang train, but you better be getting a king's ransom in return.

Somebody tell me how to feel about Poulin. The Reddit comments were generally positive.

I mean it sounds much like anyone else at that pick he's a project that is several years away from contributing.
