The Pittsburgh Penguins put their hands on one of the most coveted forwards in the league

Pittsburgh acquired forward Rickard Rakell from the Anaheim Ducks for a second round pick in 2022, forwards Zach Aston-Reese and Dominik Simon and a goalie prospect Calle Clang.

It's without a doubt a great add for Pittsburgh. Rakell will be a UFA this summer and the Ducks didn't want to extend him. They made a good choice by trading him.

In the case of the Penguins, Rakell will strengthen their top-6. This year, Rakell scored 16 goals and 28 points in 51 games.
