    Default Pens notify Johnson of potential trade

    Report: Pens advise Johnson of possible deal
    https://www.tsn.ca/1.1373958.1569853018

    Doesn’t sound like a deal is done yet. My question is who would want to take on the player/contract? Yuck.

    Either a team not competing this year looking to acquire an added asset with Johnson
    or
    A team with as bad a contract at 400k less than Johnson also looking to open up a spot up front - Vancouver & Jay Beagle (2yrs 3m) for example (Adam Gaudette needs a C spot -- pure speculation though)

    Sounds like a Bickell-trade coming. I think PIT is just done with the JJ experiment and it making it fully public disclosure.
    It's possibly even agreed-to on loose terms.
    I could see OTT taking Jack Johnson's cap hit... and also getting some prospect to eat that for PIT.

    The other option is that this is just a surface declaration so that the Pens can played the "we tried, but are hands are tied with cap situation" card.
    Then, he gets Alzner-ed down to the AHL.
    ^I'll go with this one. Waivered to WBS.

    Four years left, yuck. I would want nothing to do with this contract unless the extra pieces made it a home run deal. Otherwise four years is too long regardless of team situation.

    I have a soft spot for Jack Johnson. Sadly, his NHL future isn't looking too bright.

    Ottawa, CBJ, and Detroit should look into it.

    If Baertchi gets claimed on waivers... then Van doing a Beagle - Johnson+ swap would make tonnes of sense.

    Talk about full circle - he gets fleeced out of his money, but now is so bad that he might get paid to not play.

    Hmmm. Some might call this “fake news” by this point.

    12-team, H2H. Keep 12, but drop 2 of top four skaters, and also 2 of next six, then five more (from end-of-year rankings). One GK max.

    I have a feeling the conversation in Pitts when something like this.

    "Hey Johnson, you're not going to play. You're going to be traded. We just need to find a team that wants 4yrs of 3.5m healthy scratches. Nothing yet. We'll get back to you."

    It's consistently weird how much negotiating Rutherford does through the media.
