Why the Penguins DO have the assets to pull off a big trade or two!

Happy June 12th to all who celebrate! Before Hunter gets into how special of a day that is, he first discusses why the Penguins do have the assets required to go out and get a piece or two. He argues that players rarely go for a big asking price unless you're Matthew Tkachuk or someone like that. He brings up previous examples of goalies, including how Filip Gustavsson went to Minnesota for Cam Talbot. Look at the year he had! He also brings up the Darcy Kuemper deal and the Phillip Grubauer deal as ones that weren't that expensive when they were made before looking at how Jacob Chychrun went for magic beans during this year's trade deadline. Kyle Dubas will get to make at least one big trade, bet on that. Following that, he reviews Chad Ruhwedel's season and how it was a bit of a step in the wrong direction for him. He discusses why he took too many ill-advised penalties late in the regular season and why part of his struggles could be due to not playing as often. He then gives his prediction on if he'll be better for next season before wrapping up with some stories about the two Stanley Cups that were won on this day.
