PIT Receives
Defenseman Erik Gudbranson

Van Receives
Winger Tanner Pearson

Trade Buzz: Another head scratcher from Penguins GM Jim Rutherford in having any interest in taking on Erik Gudbranson (6-5, 220) who carries a $4 million cap hit through the 2020/2021 season. The Penguins are back on the ‘we need toughness’ route with bringing Gudbranson on board who is a No. 7 caliber defenseman but is paid like a top-2 pairing d-man.
