Welcome to today's news and rumors rundown

We start in Pittsburgh and how GM Kyle Dubas will spend his remaining cap space
0:09
Matt Vinzel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette speculates that they will spend it and that
0:13
it would be bad optics for the Penguins not to spend the cap ceiling with Crosby still
0:16
playing at an elite level and the addition so far not being enough to replace the production
0:20
of Jake Gensel. Next we move to Chicago and the possibility of the Blackhawks loading up in free agency
0:25
next offseason. According to Mark Lazarus of The Athletic they may be shifting their focus when it comes
0:30
to adding players and being ready to compete. With names like Marner, Besser, Ehlers, Tavares and others potentially hitting the market
0:37
they could make a splash and become a contender sooner rather than later. And we end in Columbus and more on Patrick Lane
0:43
Aaron Ports lining with The Athletic is reporting that GM Don Waddell wants to make a hockey
0:46
trade rather than picks or prospects. He also doesn't want to retain a significant portion of Lane's salary
