MAJOR: Pittsburgh Penguins Looking To Trade Star Player As Contract Talks Stall
Pittsburgh Penguins Are Facing Some Tough Challenges With Their Roster With The Potential Of Trading One Of Their Star Players
As we navigate through the current NHL season, teams are starting to take shape and general managers are getting an idea of where things stand with their players. For those facing challenges, there may be some tough decisions to make with many factors in play including contractual talks which is the case with the Pittsburgh Penguins. Reports have emerged that Kyle Dubas is looking at a potential trade with one of his star players.
According to insights from TSN's Chris Johnston and Josh Yohe of The Athletic, there's a chance the Penguins might consider trading Jake Guentzel due to uncertainties in contract negotiations.
Guentzel's current contract, paying him $6 million annually, is set to expire, and the consensus is that he deserves a raise. This has sparked discussions about potential moves in the trade market.
The 29 year old is lighting it up this season with 35 pts in 31 games well on pace for a career year which makes things very difficult for the Penguins going forward.
