rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted July 28, 2015 Sutter and Bonino are almost the same player. Sutter'sa little bigger and three years younger which must be why Pittsburgh got the extra player and higer pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
e_prime 1,936 Report post Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) Sutter and Bonino are almost the same player. Sutter'sa little bigger and three years younger which must be why Pittsburgh got the extra player and higer pick. Bonino's a bit cheaper too... Pens needed a little wiggle room. Scott Wheeler @scottcwheeler Luongo, Schneider, Kesler, Bieksa, Lack = Markstrom, Horvat, Sbisa, Sutter, Dorsett, McCann, 3rd, 3rd, 7th, retained salary on Luongo.

nyqvististhefuture 1,002 Report post Posted July 28, 2015 I'd much rather have sutter than bonino ... If the pens were gonna trade sutter I'd think they could get more than nick bonino Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If the pens were gonna trade sutter I'd think they could get more than nick bonino Clendenning and moved up a round in the draft. Trade doesn't make too much sense, though. Internal conflict? trying to get younger/get draft picks back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Internal conflict? trying to get younger/get draft picks back? Pens are trying to get younger? Sutter is one year younger and I'd say better which is why pens get the 2nd and canucks the 3rd and as for clendening I don't see him being anything more than a 5-7 dman if he makes it Pens Probably do this trade to give malkin bonino which is an insult when you consider he had james neal As for the edler talk I'd have to imagine it would have to start with a 1st + something like one of ouellet/smith/marchenko + pulkkinen Considering though we'd have to free cap space it would probably be smith +Franzens contract ? Can't see how else we'd be able to add edler Hasn't his play slowed down last few years ? And he has a 6+ cap hit I believe , and considering we just got green at 6 per , and weiss added to the cap and dekeyser coming up and other kids I'd pass on edler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted July 29, 2015 Edler is at a 5M AAV with 3 more years left on his contract I believe. His numbers aren't very impressive and he's 29 years old. I wanted him here for a long time but I can't see him being worth anything we'd have to give up If we were able to add a good all around top 4 I think we would be a legitimate contender. Maybe Smith blows us away this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Detroit # 1 Fan 2,204 Report post Posted July 29, 2015 Screw Edler. How do we get Dan Hamhuis here? Looks like Benning has lost his marbles, trading a 2nd+prospect to barely improve his 2nd/3rd line center? Yikes. My buddies a Vancouver fan and he is hating his life this offseason Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Malkin probably has Kessel next year. It's been reported/speculated that he'll be there instead of with Crosby. That's not much of an insult. Bonino played 2nd line center with the Canucks - he'll replace Sutter as the 3rd C. After reading some things, I think it has to do with the fact that Sutter's Caphit is 3.3 and he's set to be a UFA next year. Bonino's caphit is 1.9 and he has 2 years left. They just signed Eric Fehr and maybe they want to get in on Erhoff or Franson. Also, Bonino's possession numbers are better and if he's played 2C last year I think that bodes well for what they got. Seems to make sense for both sides. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joesuffP 1,746 Report post Posted July 29, 2015 I was joking Still a possibility. Canucks must be interested in moving him and it wouldn't take much. His stock has plummeted. Still need more skill on the blueline but I'm not even sure he can rebound and I used to be a huge Edler advocate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
