The Pittsburgh Penguins wish to add an impactful player of their late 20s<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now<\/a><\/strong>: Pittsburgh Penguins GM Kyle Dubas has said that he wants so as to add an impact player who’s in his late 20s. Jason Robertson<\/a> and Dylan Larkin<\/a> are two players who’ve been within the rumor mill.<\/p>\n

The Penguins have some draft picks, prospects, and veteran scoring wingers that they may use. They may also look to maneuver up from the No. 22 pick. Doubtful that they’d do each. Adding an impactful player would likely cost them the No. 22 pick.<\/p>\n

Age is becoming a priority for the Penguins with Evgeni Malkin turning 40, and Sidney Crosby is popping 39. Erik Karlsson is 36, and Bryan Rust is 34.<\/p>\n

McKenzie: \u201cI\u2019d say, the names being thrown around for potential trades, I\u2019m beginning to get a bit bit.. I\u2019m start.. I\u2019m all the time excited for the offseason, getting really excited for what could potentially occur if a few of these trades go down. In the event that they occur, in fact.<\/p>\n

Johnston: \u201cYeah, I used to be talking to someone , and so they were, that works for a team, and so they\u2019re saying, like, it\u2019s beginning to get interesting. Like, I believe with, you recognize, lots of, you recognize, executives and agents being on the (draft) mix.<\/p>\n

Will the Maple Leafs and Canadiens Revisit Matthew Knies Trade Talks?<\/a><\/p>\n

You understand, we\u2019re getting deeper and deeper into the playoffs, I mean, there\u2019s a world Stanley Cup is over in per week or less. You understand, it\u2019s just, it\u2019s only a reminder how close the offseason really is, and I believe that the tenor of discussions across the league is beginning to tackle a bit bit more urgency, at the least little by little.\u201d<\/p>\n
