Sky high, ridiculously so. Seattle Kraken center Shane Wright has requested a trade, but when the Vancouver Canucks called Seattle with interest in acquiring the former fourth overall pick, Seattle set a trade price so high that they chased away Vancouver. The Pittsburgh Penguins would be foolish to meet the ask, too. Elsewhere in the Daily, lingering questions about each NHL team, Ryan Shea talked to NHL.com about choosing Edmonton, and we examined the few, very few, options left for the left side of the Penguins\u2019 defense. <\/p>\n
Hopefully, this coming week brings a fresh batch of conversations and a little bit of news. I\u2019ll confess, we hit it all so hard over the last 10 days that I don\u2019t know what else to analyze or discuss this coming week. I don\u2019t want to start with the Top 20 Penguins Prospects list just yet, but I suppose I probably will. <\/p>\n
Let\u2019s do that hockey\u2026<\/p>\n
Pittsburgh Penguins<\/p>\n
Pittsburgh Hockey Now: So, what\u2019s \u201cleft\u201d on the free agent market? What options do the Penguins have internally to balance their blue line? It\u2019s not a great answer, but one worth exploring nonetheless. What are the options for the\u00a0Penguins\u2019 defense<\/a>?<\/p>\n Pittsburgh Baseball Now: Trade! I won\u2019t pretend to know much about the prospect or the nuts and bolts of the deal, but here is the\u00a0Pittsburgh Pirates trade<\/a>.<\/p>\n And the MLB Draft is today. Danny Demilio has the big board of prospects and some ideas on who the Pirates\u2019 draft pick<\/a> should be.<\/p>\n NHL Trade Talk, News, & National Hockey Now<\/p>\n NHLtraderumors.me: Vancouver reporter\/show host Rick Dhaliwal reported the Seattle Kraken\u2019s price for disgruntled center Shane Wright. Seattle GM Jason Botterill asked for one of Vancouver\u2019s two top defensemen prospects, both of whom are highly regarded. After this ask, you can pretty much scratch Wright from the trade lists<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s like asking for Harrison Brunicke. Yeah, nope. But wait, Dhaliwal wasn\u2019t done. For the Elias Pettersson trade brigade, that\u2019s not really happening, either. <\/p>\n Lots of Elias Pettersson trade talk but Lots of chatter but don\u2019t believe anything is close.<\/p>\n \u2014 Rick Dhaliwal (@DhaliwalSports) July 9, 2026<\/a> <\/p>\n Sportsnet: The offseason isn\u2019t quite over, and Sportsnet rolled through all 32 teams to examine those lingering questions for each team, including the Penguins<\/a>.<\/p>\n NHL.com: Ryan Shea. It still doesn\u2019t make much sense that Penguins GM Kyle Dubas spoke so highly of him but made no effort to sign him. When the stroke of noon hit, the Edmonton Oilers chased Shea, and he was all about it. Shea had some good quotes about playoff hockey and joining the Oilers<\/a>.<\/p>\n I\u2019m going to miss talking Xs and Os and getting some real insights from Shea. <\/p>\n Philly Hockey Now: From so close to a future star center to nothing. Sent back to the beginning to hunt for another center, with everyone knowing how desperate and how much they\u2019re willing to pay. Will James has what\u2019s next for those empty Philadelphia Flyers<\/a>.<\/p>\n Detroit Hockey Now: It is July 11, and the Yzerplan is years behind schedule, moving at the speed of continental drift. So, what would have happened if the Detroit Red Wings hadn\u2019t collapsed in the second half, and what would have happened if the\u00a0Red Wings had made the playoffs<\/a>?<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tTags: nhl trade<\/a> Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a> shane wright<\/a> <\/p>\n Categorized:Links<\/a> NHL Trade Rumors<\/a> Pittsburgh Penguins<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sky high, ridiculously so.

As of now, he has not been asked to waive his no-move clause to go anywhere.<\/p>\n
