Photo by Joe Sargent/NHLI via Getty ImagesIt’s now deep into July and the Penguins are still sitting on all their veterans. They haven’t made a major trade since the draft. Time is going by but we’re still waiting to see what might be the next shoe to drop as Kyle Dubas works to reshape the roster and set the club up for success in the future. The lack of culminated trades doesn’t mean that there hasn’t been a flurry of talks and attempts behind the scenes.
