Prior to this year, my proposal was Maatta for Conor Brown but Maatta has rebounded well this season and has probably been the most consistent penguins defenseman. I don't think he's expendable anymore. I don't see the Pens moving Letang, Dumo, Schultz, or Maatta.

Why the (frank) would a team want to pay 4 million for a 5 defensemen ?

Core player, heart & soul of the Pens, freakish athlete, tough as they come, will play through anything, big minute big time player, not many like him, top of the tree, Sid & Genos wingman.











Yes.

Maatta isn't a #5 defenseman.

Doumolin is.

Just saying. no team will pay anything for a 5 d man. They can get way better than that in free agency

I don't think any GM in the league would view Dumo as a 5 dman. He lugged around Hainsey for the entire playoffs and helped him get a 3 million dollar contract from the Leafs lol. Dumo is at the very least a 2nd pairing Dman. He's probably one of the better "shut down Dmen" in the league, even though I think there are very few of those that are actually useful.

I can't see him being traded. If Tanher can get back to 85% form or above it will be great for the team.

If he is going for a major shakeup who is off limits? Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, Letang, Murray, Guentzel, and ...?

Why would Letang be off limits? Is it because there isn't a high demand for a $7.0M D-man who can't play defense?

Hainsey has been awesome for us.

I didn't watch him for you guys. So I'm not sure how he was.

But he's way exceeded my expectations. He's one of the reasons Reilly has taken such a big step.

He's probably playing where he should for you guys, not on the first pair like he was for the Pens.

Who knows if they even want to move him at this point anymore. Seems like he's producing well now.

I would trade Maatta before Dumo. I don't think either of those players will be included, but I'd rather keep Dumo long term simply because of his reach and skating.

I think the Leafs would be crazy to trade us a 3rd line center. That's one of those moves that could bite them down the road.

Not sure if they might trade for a few more picks - especially 1sts. Unless Lou trades for a Dman I can't see the Leafs contending. If they don't trade for that Dman then I think they will sell a few & play their prospects like Kapanen & co to get more NHL experience then really go for it next year.

Trouble is in saying that, when you are there you should do everything possible to try & win it, Not bank on the following year. So I believe that they should trade hard for that Dman keep their team together & Go hard. Be a great ECF Pens Leafs.
