If the Pittsburgh Penguins put Tristan Jarry on the market, plenty of teams will have interest.
The NHL offseason is beginning to pick up, and the Pittsburgh Penguins should be a significant player over the next few months. President and general manager Kyle Dubas may need to overhaul a few positions to reverse the Penguins fortunes next season, including goaltender.
Tristan Jarry has been the Penguins starting goaltender for four seasons. Yet several questions remain about his ability to succeed in that role. His ability to stay healthy and his lack of consistency remain noteworthy concerns heading into his age 29 season.
A few weeks ago, The Athletic's Rob Rossi reported that while the Penguins aren't actively shopping Jarry, others around the league believe that he could be available this summer. If so, Jarry joins a sizable list of available netminders on the trade market this offseason.
Frank Seravalli of Daily Faceoff included as many as five goaltenders on his latest "Trade Targets Board," including Linus Ullmark, Juuse Saros, and Jacob Markstrom. Talent-wise, Jarry likely falls behind that trio of Vezina-nominated netminders (Ullmark won in 2023).
However, if offloading Jarry's contract is part of their decision to move on, the Penguins asking price may bump Jarry above someone like Saros, who may only be on the market for a steep price.
His time with the Penguins has been rocky, but if Jarry lands on the trade market, he'll be one of the top options available this summer.
