Since becoming the Penguins general manager, Kyle Dubas has faced heavy criticism for moves that he has made. Pittsburgh sports fans are just babies that want to cry about everything. Dubas had one goal at the 2025 NHL Trade Deadline which was to acquire assets to get the rebuild underway and he did that.

Rickard Rakell's value may never be higher than it was before the trade deadline. If it's not, Dubas missed an opportunity. Time will tell.

Kyle Dubas was busy today as were the general managers of just about every team in the league. Almost every team made at least one deal today, and Dubas made several, including one that sent Cody Glass to the New Jersey Devils.
