Penguins GM Jim Rutherford himself said there was a “very, very good chance” that he’ll trade one of his goalies this off-season. There are a couple reasons for this. One is that Pittsburgh has other needs in its lineup as they try to keep the Stanley Cup window from closing and AHL netminder Casey DeSmith is a fully capable replacement for the backup job.
The Leafs are looking to make some changes , but the chances that any of the big-money players get moved are small right now. It seems GM Kyle Dubas would rather take at least one more run with that core of players. But there are a few mid-range contracts that could be valuable to other teams in the league. Kapanen was one of those and Johnsson is another.
