5th year option deadline for Olave/Penning is May 1st

Regarding Olave, A trade right now would not give us more than a second round pick. If we don't give him the 5th year option, there are two choices:

- Him playing great and we sign him to a long term deal.
- Him playing great and leaving for a rich contract that will give us a third round pick back.

If he does not have a good year, the point is moot.

I think the best decision is to wait and see..

As for Penning, I don't see this being a difficult decision, he has not play worth of an extension yet.
