Eklund: Would You Make This Trade: Malkin to Nashville for..... Buzzcast at 1.

hahaha

The Penguins are struggling to find a third line center, so they're going to trade Malkin for a dman when they already have a #1 dman sign, and then have two voids at center to fill? Hmmm sure, that make sense.

This trade needs a third party to really bring the sizzle. How can NJ work Subban into the mix?

To NSH: Malkin + Subban
To NJD: Ellis + PIT 2020 1st rd pick
To PIT: NSH 2020 3rd rd pick

Ok, but only if we don't have to retain any of P.K's salary.

None of it makes sense. Malkin isn't going anywhere. It must be a slow hockey news day.

You're joking, right? lol

Malkin the biggest name to play there?

Thought Peter Forsberg played there a while back.

BS rumor off the top of your head.

Why would Nashville give up that much for a player in his 30's?

Not happening.

Ek, why doesn't Pittsburgh just keep Malkin and sign Cody Ceci? During practice Malkin can skate circles around Ceci and feel like a man. Simple.

Also, why doesn't Nashville just get Ovechkin instead? I think that was an E4 once so probably still moving in inches someway shape form.

Ok, I'll play along...

TO NSH: Evgeni Malkin, Jack Johnson and Patrick Hornqvist
TO PIT: Johansen ($3M retained), Victor Arvidsson and their next three 1st round picks.

I mean, if you want to talk about silly trades I'll give you some silly trades.

They already have Jack Johnson for that.

Yes, Nashville is in need of a playmaker forward, but why continue to overpay for older options. And where would Johansen and Duchene end up then, since pretty sure they are in the #1 & #2 C roles currently. Unless one of them are moved as well to another team.
Nashville needs scoring wingers, enough with the playmaking centers.
And that would be a lot to give up for Malkin, even if he could fit in salary-wise.

so instead of doing this article every single year, you decided to do it twice this year?

apparently Toronto has the inches now

I think the Malkin Trade would be great for both teams.

Good trade imho tbh

If you have to ask...

Malkin has been protected behind Crosby his whole career. He isn’t a top line center on most teams today, he isn’t worth that much value in trade ever.

I think a more plausible rumor would be Malkin to Arizona for Oliver EkmanLarsson straight up.

I appreciate Eks unwillingness to let the "Malkin wants to be the man" thing go.

The trade is out of order though. Johanssen, Tolvanen and a 1st maybe. Duchene, Fabbro and a 1st preferably.
