The Stars have re-signed Jason Robertson to a 1-year deal worth $12M. What does that mean for the Penguins offseason plans? It felt like Kyle Dubas was cornering things to make a real push for Robertson, after trading for his brother at the beginning of free agency. Will Dubas push the chips to 2027 when there is a loaded free agency class with the Penguins expected to have an abundance of cap space?
93.7 The Fan Sports Director Jeff Hathhorn joined the show. Jeff doesn’t think the Jason Robertson thing is totally dead because he re-signed to only 1 more year in Dallas. How close are the Penguins if Robertson is in the mix? Jeff doesn’t think Kyle Dubas is done looking at his options. Jeff said there isn’t really an in-house option to build around after Sidney Crosby.
Former Penguin Tyler Kennedy joined the show. Tyler said the Penguins offseason strategy should now be ‘sit & wait’ after Jason Robertson re-signed in Dallas. Should the Penguins have interest in Dylan Larkin? With a loaded free agency class in 2027, will the Penguins get in on the fun? The guys think Cale Makar should be on top of the priority list in the ’27 offseason. TK thinks it might be Jason Robertson.
