They'll hurt the return on Murray or Jarry to dump Bjugstad in that deal, the same way the Capitals hurt Grubauer's return to dump Orpik's contract.
Is Bjud's contract THAT onerous though where we'd need to dump him?

The Pens are the only time ADDING injuries during a pandemic shutdown.

Totally agree, man. Totally agree. I see this guy being signed for like 1 year/2m by a team and killing it on a non-playoff team and somehow playing 70 games. This is just your classic Derrick Brassard like player. A player you think is a decent "gamble" to bring in and just is absolute garbage in terms of fit.Well, you can't ask a leopard to change its spots, can you, Cole?
If it's career ending, I wonder if he'd try to rehab anyway and go to camp only to get LTIR'd through the end of his contract and retire with a little more scratch. I feel bad for the dude, he's just never been healthy here.
My concern from a team perspective is that it hurts our overall depth. With both Simon and Bjugstad out, there's even more pressure on the bottom six guys to produce. McCann in particular. And the way he played over the last few weeks didn't exactly instill me with a lot of confidence.
