PIT gets
Kasperi Kapanen
Kyle Wood
2017 3rd Round Pick (ARI)
ARI gets
Marc-Andre Fleury
Joffrey Lupul
Toronto gets
Mike Smith (25% Retained) (2x Seasons)
Chris Kunitz
Toronto gets an older but still playable backup goalie that they probably won't lose in the expansion but that's okay. They rid lupul and get a veteran winger in Kunitz. Being beside Crosby and Malkin almost his whole career would be good mentoring.
Pittsburgh gets rid of Fleury for a decent prospect in Kapanen and in my opinion a really good D prospect in Wood, and a pick.
Arizona gets that desperately needed younger number 1 goalie who has a few cups under his belt and gold medals. And get a needed winger, not very good but still useful.
A name like Marc Andre Fleury would bring more fans to Arizona. Everyone wins.

This is actually one of the best trades I've seen on the site and it makes sense

I like the trade. Not sure if it feels pittsburghs needs or Toronto but I like the idea and I'm sure fleury would make zona a better team and would actually bring a lot of fans back

Pretty weak offer for Fleury and Kunitz and why trade back Kapanen when Pitt traded him to Toronto lol. I also can't see Arizona wanting Lupul. And put some spacing in there johnny! Make it easier for me lol.

This makes no sense for Toronto I'd rather have Datsyuks contract then Smiths terrible trade maybe Kappnen for Perlini swap tho.

Toronto gives up a good B+ level prospect, and a dump (which they could easily throw on LTIR) for 2 dumps with more money and more term? In what world does this make sense?
