What happened: Pittsburgh Penguins trade target Jason Robertson is off the market for now after signing a new contract. The forward reportedly inked a one-year, $12 million deal with Dallas.
Why it matters: The short-term agreement walks him right to unrestricted free agency next offseason. This forces Pittsburgh to look elsewhere for high-cost trade targets to fill out their forward depth.
What to watch: Watch for Pittsburgh to pivot to other options as the offseason progresses.
