What I’m hearing about Penguins trade deadline targets: Will a familiar name return?
- The Penguins are considering reuniting with Teddy Blueger to bolster center depth as Sidney Crosby remains out.
- Blueger would be a rental with a $1.8 million cap hit, becoming an unrestricted free agent this summer.
- The Canucks, owning the league’s worst record, are seen as sellers ahead of the trade deadline.
- Penguins GM Kyle Dubas aims to add center depth while remaining disciplined about the future.
- Erik Karlsson’s impressive play has drawn approval from Penguins staff amid Crosby’s absence.
- Malkin’s contract talks with the Penguins have caused some tension after a recent meeting with his agent.
- Malkin’s willingness to transition from center to wing has surprised some within the organization.
- Crosby’s rehab is progressing well, with Crosby skating and Lizotte practicing ahead of upcoming games.
- The trade deadline action remains influenced by a seller-favored market and strategic center depth needs.
