It doesn’t make sense to trade Daniel Sprong within the division

With more changes expected for the Pittsburgh Penguins, the natural name to get moved next is forward Daniel Sprong. The 21-year old has ability but has been unable to establish himself in a role on the Pittsburgh right wing, getting relegated to healthy scratch status. For better or worse, Sprong is basically an after-thought to coach Mike Sullivan.

One natural fit, on paper and in theory, would seem to be a rebuilding team that could be interested in giving a talented young player a real audition at the NHL level in a role fitting of his talent.
