The Pittsburgh Penguins suddenly have themselves a whack of goaltending depth. We know which backstop the Pens would ideally like to ship out of town, Tristan Jarry. But sometimes, the best laid plans don't come to fruition. According to Penguins insider, Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now , it just might be another netminder that would make the most sense to trade.

The 1990s were an interesting time for the NHL. The Penguins won Stanley Cups at the start of the decade, Montreal won Canada's last Stanley Cup during that decade, the Rangers and Devils had their moments, and the Red Wings, Stars, and Avalanche were in an arms race as the decade finished as all won Stanley Cups as well. Wayne Gretzky was traded for the second time, Mario Lemieux retired, Patrick Roy was traded, and NHL expansion exploded. On the ice, teams were coming up with alternate, thir...
