The reporter Josh Yohe, covering the Pittsburgh Penguins for The Ahtletic, started a massive trade rumor involving the team's two goalies.
RUMOR: Pittsburgh Penguins to Make Blockbuster Trade Involving a Goalie
The Athletic released their projections for this year's trade deadline and in it, Yohe mentionned that Kyle Dubas could be interested in parting ways with either Alex Nedeljkovic or Tristan Jarry.
He believes that since the Penguins surely won't make the playoffs this season, and that their strength right now is between the pipes, Jarry or Nedeljkovic could be gone before March 8th.
"The Penguins almost certainly won't make the playoffs at this point, and right now, their team strength is goaltending. I could see Tristan Jarry or Alex Nedeljkovic being moved before the deadline. Both have been excellent. Pittsburgh also has a couple of good goaltending prospects in the system. "

Yohe added that The Toronto Maple Leafs, the Carolina Hurricanes and the Colorado Avalanche are among the teams that could be interested in one of these goaltenders.
"Many teams � Toronto, Carolina and Colorado, among many others � could use a boast between the pipes and might be willing to pay quite a price for Jarry or Nedeljkovic. � Josh Yohe"
Both Jarry and Nedeljkovic have a great value on the trade market, and at the end, we'll probably need to wait and see which team makes the best offer.
