The Pittsburgh Penguins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/pittsburgh-penguins] currently hold the 11th and 12th overall picks of the 2025 NHL Entry Draft. With this, they have the chance to land two very good prospects. That is, of course, if they elect to hold onto both of their picks. However, based on a recent report, this is not a guarantee. According to TSN's Darren Dreger, the Penguins are open to moving the 11th or 12th pick of this year's draft "for the right young player." Hearing that the Penguins are open to the idea of moving one of their first-round picks is not necessarily surprising. There are some intriguing young players who are in the rumor mill right now, with Minnesota Wild forward Marco Rossi and Buffalo Sabres defenseman Bowen Byram being two notable examples. With this year's draft being a bit of a wild card after the first few picks, now could be a smart time for the Penguins to deal one of their first-rounders for an impactful NHL player that would help them both now and in the long term. Yet, while the Penguins are reportedly open to trading one of their first-rounders, there is also an argument to be had for them to keep them. The Penguins' prospect pool could use a boost, and they would give it just if they decided to keep both picks. Nevertheless, it is going to be very interesting to see what the Penguins do with their first-rounders from here.
