Penguins GM Kyle Dubas Urged to Make Major Move After Report on Canucks Superstar

The Pittsburgh Penguins have been officially eliminated from any chance at the Stanley Cup Playoffs for the 3rd straight year; this marks the longest postseason drought of Sidney Crosby's career.

Penguins general manager Kyle Dubas will have his work cut out for him over the summer - but there may be a key opportunity to bring in a notable player from the open market.

Vancouver Canucks forward Brock Boeser recently stated that he's unlikely to come back to the Canucks next year:

The Penguins are projected to have over $23 million worth of cap space to utilize toward making new additions to the roster and attempting to maximize the time that franchise icons Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kristopher Letang have left in their respective careers.

Boeser not only would provide a goal-scoring punch for the Penguins but would also represent another veteran presence in the dressing room to help mentor the next wave of young talent that is already beginning to make their appearances.

Boeser is only a year removed from scoring 40 goals; he has 49 points (25G, 24A) this year and could greatly benefit from a change of scenery, especially considering the difficult year that it's been in Vancouver in 2024-25.
