The Penguins next move has been revealed as we have a major Major report from Elliott Freeman on 32 thoughts Kyle Dubis may be looking to move his Star defenseman Eric Carlson to not other than the Toronto Maple Leafs We're gonna talk about that and everything on today's edition of penguins digest kind of a low-key bombshell Coming out of the 32 thoughts podcast of this morning So how to get a video going on that make sure before you guys Sorry before we get into the bulk of the video here subscribe to the channel.

It's really easy It's right down below and you'll get all the penguins I just videos right when they come out in your description box You could also get a notification for it if you press the notification bell, but yeah guys are pretty pretty crazy stuff But let's let's open this up. First things first. This is from Leafs latest on Well, I guess from 32 thoughts coming down at the bottom of your screen here depending on how both this is from Elliott Freeman depending on both team seasons go my prediction is Eric Carlson becomes a Maple Leaf Kyle Dubis has never really told the full story as far as I know When he was GM of the Leafs, he tried to trade for Carlson at one point I don't know. I don't know that I see him getting traded at all But he said look if Carlson and remember Carlson has a no-move clause comes to the point where he's on the market Matt Sundin, Daniel Alferson, Eric Carlson, that seems to be his pick So if Eric Carlson does seem to be on the move It seems like the Toronto Maple Leafs will be the team that he would go to I mean I can kind of see it making sense given the major Swedish connection the Toronto Maple Leafs have built Obviously, you know Alferson's there Sundin's there Nylander plays for them. That's pretty important to looking at the connections there but I Think this really all just depends on how well the Penguins end up doing this season in my opinion Do I think Eric Carlson is likely to get moved if the Penguins are playing? Well, no, I I personally don't but we don't know how the season's gonna go obviously last season was very successful for the Penguins, but Again Kyle Dubas is still trying to juggle you know both timelines of the Penguins the young Penguins with the old ones and Eric Carlson could get a lot on the market with his despite his no-move clause and could be surging because he had a Very very successful season last year. Obviously, he was you know, kind of in a little bit of a reticence I mean, obviously 66 points was pretty solid 15 goals 51 assists. He was just kind of all over it. I felt like Someone like Dan Muse really had him going in in a successful, uh, you know position to succeed Obviously his ice time was huge. It was up there You can see his ranked 120 and also using a little bit of a new system here So, let me know what you guys think about that in the comments as well And if we kind of go gloss over his we're gonna get back to 101 points, but super super successful last year I think there's a lot of You know game left in Eric Carlson and I bring this up just because it's from Elliot Freeman I wouldn't bring you guys something that doesn't seem very substantiated I think this is really significant if Elliot Freeman is saying it on one of the biggest hockey podcasts, you know Kind of you know, I guess, you know in North America So I think that's super obviously one year left on his deal. That's super big as well 11.5 million hours that is retained. I believe it doesn't show it in the screenshot. But when you're left on the deal Again he is 36 and the Leafs haven't getting a little bit older if you look at some of their acquisitions over the past offseason Which I'll show later, but this does kind of beg the question like what would you even get back in an Eric Carlson trade? Obviously, he's really good But if he is only choosing the Toronto Maple Leafs, which is what Elliot Freeman is saying in his quote They're from 32 thoughts podcast. What would you get back someone who's been on them? Uh, you know been on the market a lot or been in trade rooms a lot lately is Morgan Riley I mean It's kind of a similar to Eric Carlson in the sense of a more offensive minded defenseman last season wasn't that good for him? He was kind of all over the place, especially dealing with someone like Craig Berube. He wasn't very successful I think under Demi was someone like Morgan Riley would be successful Obviously, he's he's a left-handed shot instead of a right-handed shot But I think he would fit in seamless and then the big thing to me as well is The Toronto Maple Leafs connection I mean Morgan Riley played for a long time under Kyle Dubas basically his entire time Dubas was there Morgan Riley's been with the Leafs for a long time He's been in trade rumors for a long time, but this does seem I guess kind of lateral I don't really understand it from you know, I guess either team's perspective I guess you know Eric Carlson is a better player than Morgan Riley and if you do kind of take a look at the Leafs depth chart here Morgan Riley's I don't know if he'll slot in it in their top left pair D But on the right side right now, it's it's Radish Tanev Stetcher Tanev dealt with an injury last year I think so he didn't play most of the year and then Stetcher is kind of like an extra defense But you don't always gonna play every game But Eric Carlson would slide in pretty seamlessly on that second pair or maybe on the first pair But they did just pay Radish a lot It's kind of a wonky fit But I think it does kind of make sense if the Leafs are good and the Penguins are bad Looking obviously you take a look at the Penguins depth chart without Eric Carlson. It's not good. Really? I've talked about this at length I think this defense does leave a lot to be desired I think they're gonna be relying a lot on someone like a Harrison Brunick to play well Because Sam Gerrard's tenure with Pittsburgh was okay last season Obviously Eric Carlson, so not Eric Carlson, Chris Letang is a lot older now. So that's something to think about I mean not a lot older now one year older than last year But his age really showed last year and then I think Declan Carlisle can be good for them But again, he's a bottom pair guy. Same thing with TBR I'm not expecting a lot out of these players and Morgan Riley's contract is a little hefty Against 7.5 million dollars. I get we keep saying the cap is going up. So maybe it's not too too crazy But three years left. He's 32. It kind of makes sense If this was like a one like a one for one not entirely one for one But the Leafs would probably have to add because Eric Carlson is still the superior player Looking at the contracts like it would end when he he's what 36. I think Eric Carlson is what I think he's 36 right now. So Yeah, so he's right now. So with you would be getting you'd be getting four years younger for the Penguins But the big one which which would be interesting if someone was also in a lot trainers with the Leafs I don't really expect him to get moved is Matthew Nyes I think this would be a fever dream if you're a Penguins fan to get Matthew Nyes for Eric Carlson He's an unbelievable player and he's signed for I think six more years or four more years Technically if you count this one on Huge player again drafted by Dubas. I think Dubas was a big fan of him Plays big power forward. He's only 23 fixed both timelines kind of he's NHL ready He's been he's been very successful at the NHL level. Uh, Matthew Nyes is a great player I I just don't know if this is the guy you're getting back for someone like Eric Carlson all things go, right? So that would be a big get but if I'm being honest with you guys, this is a little bit ambitious I don't know if you're getting Matthew Nyes for Eric Carlson on Unfortunately, uh in terms of like just like, you know logistics just kind of looking at the standings from last year The Leafs weren't good last year and the Penguins they were very successful last year. That's the Pacific Division But um, um, the the Leafs weren't good at all last year if you're looking at The standings they were that's a really last in the division. Wow They they are way worse than I thought they were that's crazy And obviously look at it on the flip side from the Penguins perspective they were in the plow second the division obviously they lost the fires Unfortunately, but they were more successful They were more successful than the least work So it would have a busy after the standings for each human basically have to flip for this deal to happen Uh, but I think feasibly it could make sense for the Penguins if they do want to trade Carlson You know kind of do right by him in his last year He has been successful with them and do business got kind of the player that does do right by By players if he can so I mean overall I can see it making sense for the Penguins I can see it making a lot sense for the Leafs to I mean, he's an offensive dynamo He's still very good. The Leafs are kind of becoming more and more veteran heavy. So let me know what you guys think of this deal potentially happening Based on the standings this could be something we attack more later into the season But all that being said, do you think Eric Carlson being traded makes sense to the Leafs? Does that make sense? What would you want back? I brought up Riley and Niles. I think Riley makes more sense than Niles does I think if the Leafs do trade Niles, we're gonna get something a little more younger and more coveted than Eric Carlson Especially if he wants to come here, they would have leverage But again, nothing too too concrete yet with that but a pretty big, um, you know bomb from Elliot Freeman Not much you guys think in the comments.
