Les Penguins de Pittsburgh devront s’occuper de leur gardien de but cet été, et John Gibson est déjà l’un des meilleurs noms liés aux Penguins. Bien que Gibson ne soit pas un mauvais gardien de but, tout échange pour lui ne devrait pas inclure un meilleur ailier des Penguins.

And jarry isn't worth coming back BECAUSE he's trash
I'd trade Guentzel or Rust to get Vejmelka, probs not Gibson tho
To me Gibson isn't an upgrade and it would not be worth trading a good player. If Jarry will take a discounted salary to stay with the penguins it could work. But I'm not sure he and his agent will want that. I'm not sure who the answer is in net.
Rust isn’t that good. In reality, his actual skill dictates that he is an excellent third line player with strong defense that has had the benefit of playing on a top line with the best player in the world for a number of years. He doesn’t have incredible hands or do anything that well. Let’s not forget, Pascal Dupuis scores 60 points playing with Crosby and he’s the epitome of bottom six forward.
If they wanted Rust and a mid round pick for Gibson, 💯 sign me up. You free yourself from Rust’s contract and gives you cap flexibility to re-sign Zucker.
I would not trade Guentzel. He is the team’s best goal scorer and unlike Rust, I think he has top 6 hands and skill. I also think Crosby needs Guentzel to keep producing. If you trade Jake, you just create a massive hole which is hard to fill. 30-40 goal scorers don’t grow on trees or come cheap.
Rust, at least in my opinion is easier to replace than Guentzel. If they do keep Rust, I’d love to see him on the third line to provide a bit of offense and play a shutdown role. No more top line Rust. Bring a kid up to play with Crosby or Malkin and sign someone else like athanasiou. That would be a fun player to watch fly around in the top 6.
Gibson isn’t the answer.
Gibson coming to us feels like a dream that needed fulfilled two years ago and not now.
Its also worth noting were speculating this without even knowing who the GM is gonna be. Its fun for sure, but the new person could have completely different thoughts.
Not the answer.
Why would the Ducks want a veteran winger? They're no way near being competitive especially if they lose Gibson.
Guentzel is easily the softest player in the league scared of anyone not in the same jersey and with sullivan as coach you wont see anyone in the lineup who plays a physical game 😂 and rust got paid then slowed production down
I would love to see Gibson in a Pens jersey but not for Guentzel or Rust. Maybe Granland and/or Carter, throw in Dumo to help with the horrid defense they have, not that ours was any better this year like you pointed out in the video lol.
Agree 💯
I would have loved Gibson Trocheck and Miller….all 3 years ago or when they were UFA not worth the risk trading for now.
Trading Rust for Gibson is just bad, but trading Guentzel for him is downright nutty.
I disagree with the analysis on this channel with some regularity, but this is not one of those times. I couldn't agree more. You don't wanna crap on him? I will. He sucks. John Gibson sucks.
He's not worth it. Even an underperforming Rust is too much. Gibson is aging, and it's uncertain that he's even an average goalie at this point. Imagine trading Guentzel for this guy. Insanity. The guy has a .902 save percentage over 4 years! I am so sick of hearing that he's a top goaltender.
The Ducks would not want that package. Ducks need picks and prospect not veteran players.
