When it comes to the Seattle Kraken expansion draft tomorrow night, the player the Penguins may lose is projected to be all over the map. There are a few good candidates, but none stand too far out.
It could be Jason Zucker, some opine. Others point to Brandon Tanev. Still different places forecast Marcus Pettersson to head west. And don’t forget about Zach Aston-Reese as a possibility. To an extent even Casey DeSmith is worth a consideration.
The excitement, or perhaps nervousness, is that a loss of any of these players would mean something drastically different for how the Pens will need to respond.
