Rumour is Pens keep on circling back on EP. Sure there is the NMC in the way but also why would he not waive to move on from the rebuild?
EP can be picky & probably get stuck in the rebuild til more teams listed.
If he wants to compete & play on a winner it isn’t here. Loyalty is unnecessary.
I don’t know how reliable the source of this rumor is or where it began but I heard EP nixed a trade to the Pens. Who knows… It doesn’t feel like a destination he would waive to go to even without hearing that.
