The Penguins weren’t very active on July 1, but they did send one of their goaltenders out west! Hunter and Patrick begin the show talking about the Alex Nedeljkovic trade to San Jose and how this is right in line with their desire to get younger. The trade will now open up room for goaltenders such as Joel Blomqvist and Sergei Murashov to take the next steps in their development. Despite being mostly quiet on the opening of free agency, Kyle Dubas did make a couple of re-signings and signings, including Conor Dewer and Philip Tomasino. They dive into the details and talk about the value of these players. Finally, with big free agents opting to stay with their clubs and one big name headed to Vegas, the Penguins find themselves in a position to be very active on the trade market this upcoming year.
