Much more. At least if there is to be any logic to the deal at all from the Pens' perspective.

... as much as I want to blindly trust Rutherford since hes helped us win two cups.... Don't think I can just believe in him on this one.

I like the idea of having Reaves on the team. Not a bad player and only one year left at $1 mil. Don't know that we needed to trade for someone of his caliber. Have to see what the details are. If #31 + Sundqvist were involved, then Reaves is probably just a small piece of the trade. Can't imagine he has much trade value.

I feel he is making the wrong choice with this "toughness" idea

I hope theres way more to this or a three way trade no one is catching onto, because this is a straight garbage deal.

The #51 pick.

And that is all.

In GMJR we trust, eh?

Dang, Tolvanen would have been a nice grab at this stage of the draft.

Meh... Reeves is better than Sundqvist and the picks are only 20 apart in a weak draft. Not gonna lose sleep... Unless... What's Reeves cap hit?

Blues protected Reeves which I found strange...

OTOH, if Reaves ends Brandon Dubinsky's career the next time the Pens play Columbus, it just might all be worth the ridiculous price we just paid.
