If there is a possible trade for Kovy that doesn't involve Elias, Little G, Gomez, Neuwy, Big 3, Marty then the deal should be done.
It really depends where the Pens are at the deadline....I say if they are out of the race then Kovy is GONE and if they are out of the race because of their goaltending then the Devs will have the advantage with Ahoren to be available to be offered (thats if Lou wants to offer him) and package him with Bergy and Z then the Pens could very well jump all over that because they would be getting a solid goalie and a pretty decent Defensemen and they just might need both next year. Bergy is great, yes, but could be replaced by Foster in a second and Kovy is Kovy and would give the Devs a 1 2 punch with Elias on 1 line and Kovy on the other with Gomez and Neuwy centering one of them and then teams can not just focus on shutting down Elias or Kovy cause they would be on seperate lines. It would be like we had Mogs all over again, but a better Mogs.
Elias-Gomez-Friesen
Brylin-Neuwy-Kovy
Pando-Madden-Little G
Jimbo-Danton-Langy
and when we are trailing by 1 or whatever late in the game then u move Kovy up with Elias and Gomez and that is a very dangerous line.
This could all very well be possible, but just not right now. We have that lineup plus the Big 3 and Marty in net, we could very well be raising that shiny silver thing.
Sure this could be a stretch, but you never know in this league. Ahoren, Bery, Z could very well be enough to get Kovy.
