I think we should be taking a hard look at Rust if we're trading Boeser or Garland.
I know he just turned 30 and it could be a scary UFA contract but he could be exactly what we need in the room.
There was talk about new management not liking our practice habits and whatnot compared to what they were used to in Pit and I imagine Crosby's wingman can help instill some of that here.
too old, JR is looking to build around petey/hughes/demko's core age, rather than horvat's/millers. I think he said he's looking for players under 26.
Rust will probably get paid, if pens decide to walk away from malkin/letang.
Honestly, i think Fiala would be a great fit, he plays a "sandpaper" type of player JR described and he's only 25
He wouldn't cost much since minny can't afford him anymore with suter/parise buyouts.
