Yep, there's a very good chance.
Tyler Sharpe
2:04
Think there's any chance of a Cullen return? Idk if it's necessary but his presence couldn't hurt
James
2:04
Who are the best Twitter follows for trade rumors/updates?
Sam Werner
2:04
@JMackeyPG, @SWernerPG, @seangentille
Conor
2:04
I think Sheary could be a good player away from Sid, what do you think?
Jason Mackey
2:05
At this point it's more about whether Minnesota is going to let him go. Doesn't look like the Wild will based on his role and their recent success.
Sean Gentille
2:05
Conor, what's your last name?
DM
2:05
Is the general feeling that it's either Cullen, a d-man, or no deal today, or does that goalie uncertainty scare Rutherford a little?
Jason Mackey
2:05
I don't think he would be against doing something on the cheap, but there aren't many of those moves out there right now. We also don't know for sure that Murray is hurt. Just that he was being evaluated.

neh. no reason. pens have 3 great goalies.
Jason Mackey
2:06
I can understand this line of thinking. I'd be fine with Jarry, even after this recent rough patch. I think he gets better with the more games he plays, sort of like Fleury. It's turning to DeSmith that scares me a little bit.
Joe
2:06
Interested what you guys think. I know this will not happen- what would an Erik Karlsson trade to the Penguins look like?
Sam Werner
2:06
Salary implications aside? Maybe something like a first, Daniel Sprong and Jake Guentzel? Something like that?
Leif
2:07
What time does the trade deadline end in Pittsburgh time? I am in sweden and need to know how long to stay awake :-) Thank you!
Sam Werner
2:07
Just gotta make it 52 more minutes, Leif.
Bob
2:08
Sharks gonna do anything?
Sean Gentille
2:08
They've been connected with Karlsson because they have a ton of space, is in enough to absorb Bobby Ryan. I'd love love love to see that happen.
Sam Werner
2:08
Honestly I just want Karlsson to go somewhere because 1) It'd be fun and 2) To see him back in the playoffs again.
Sean Gentille
2:10
Karlsson is pretty delightful, all around. He's got a weird sense of humor. He needs rescued from that disaster.
Tj
2:10
McDonagh to Flyers?
Jason Mackey
2:11
I don't know. Feel like that deal has Toronto written all over it.
Mike
2:11
Aware of any college free agents the pens could go after to replenish the system?
Jason Mackey
2:11
I am not, Mike. Sorry. Then again, we've been sort of consumed with the NHL trade deadline.
JimTraficant
2:11
Is no one willing to give a used puck bag to get Hunwick’s contract off the books?
Jason Mackey
2:11
It does not look that way, no.
Sean Gentille
2:12
Evander Kane to the Sharks.
Corey
2:12
Who and what position to we target today?
Jason Mackey
2:12
Defense and Matt Cullen. Maybe Mike Rielly. Luke Schenn makes sense. Was told there's nothing to the Connauton stuff -- or at least his camp is unaware.
Vince
2:12
which is more imporant "need"... #6 D or a middle six winger?
Jason Mackey
2:13
Defense, easily. They have plenty of wingers.
Keith
2:13
Pens going to trade Sheary?
Jason Mackey
2:13
I don't think so. I think they'll end up doing something minor.
Corey
2:13
Do you think we make a trade today?
Jason Mackey
2:13
Yes, I do. GMJR will do something, likely for a depth defenseman.
Marnie
2:13
With Cole now a CBJ, it took a first, third, and Gustavsson to get Brassard.  That seems reasonable given his track record and contract - he isn't a rental.  It also tells me that the Senator's want more than that for Karlsson.
Sam Werner
2:13
Also looks really good given what the Bruins gave up yesterday to get Rick Nash: Spooner, Beleskey, a prospect (Lindgren), a first and a seventh. And Nash is an expiring contract!
Mark Eaton
2:14
So I hear the pens need a solid guy on the third pairing for a play off run? Should I keep my phone close?
Jason Mackey
2:14
You could chuck it in the Atlantic Ocean, Mark.
CS
2:14
Do you guys think Connauton would add much? I'm in Phoenix and watch the Yotes but feel like I never hear much about him.
Jason Mackey
2:15
That's not always a bad thing. We've heard a lot about Matt Hunwick lately. I'm sure he'd rather never get talked about.
