Proposal: Any interest in Tierney?

[Akrapovince]

Assuming Ottawa is far behind a wildcard spot, do you guys have any interest in Tierney?

Rather vanilla low event centre that I think could be an upgrade over Shore/McLeod/Ryan.

Obvious down side is he isn’t a right handed centre and not the best at face offs, but playing him on the third and bumping Ryan down to the fourth line really revamps your guys bottom 6 IMO.

Depends completely on the cost to me. Ryan has looked good at 3C, although pre-season and two games is too small of a sample size to really say if that's a hot streak or what we have. C depth is good to have, and we're wanting to contend so I would be fine with not using McLeod yet and bringing Tierney in. Again, the cost is the issue.

Would there be a deal on the table to add to Tierney to get Lavoie? We’re starving for RW prospects.

Whose anchoring the third pair for you guys right now? Holden could be a piece to shore up for a playoff push as well.

McDavid
Drai/RNH
Tierney/Ryan
Tierney/Ryan

down the middle.

Maybe Holden - Bouchard could be a good pair.

Tierney @ 50% retention + Holden for Lavoie?

I doubt Lavoie is on the table. He's our only realy good RW prospect as well, ha ha.

The third pairing is Koekoek and Bouchard. Koekoek looks good enough so far. We have Russell still hanging around to step in if Koekoek falters. So not overly interested in Holden.

Any chance a second rounder isn’t too rich of a price for Tierney @ 50% a fair bit before the trade deadline to maximize games played for Edmonton?

It's probably a fair offer. Do we even have a 2nd though? Seems like Holland is always trading our 2nd's. If we still have it, you can probably consider it available, ha ha.

EDIT - its attached to Keith for that trade. You've gotta come at Holland way earlier than this to get his 2nd. Maybe we can do the 2023 2nd. Ha ha.

No can do. Our second is saved as a conditional to complete the Kieth trade w Chicago.

 

[Oilhawks]

I'd love to add Tierney but I don't see how we could swing a deal unless the Sens are willing to take next year's 2nd or something

This is pierre dorions burner account haha

 

[CornKicker]

i would thionk about it if there wasnt anyone better but our goal should be getzlaf

 

[yukoner88]

Im more interested in democracy to be honest......

[Dr Awesome]

Would rather we chase more costly Conner Brown

 

[VainGretzky]

We have enough tyranny from Ottawa already

 

[McSuper]

100 % agree . A 3rd line of Foegele Ryan Brown would be some thing

 

[Canovin]

Not interested in Ottawa players. They usually suck after leaving Ottawa system. McCann is a better add.

 

[oil4life97]

What’s his save percentage?

 

[nexttothemoon]

Wouldn't mind some sort of deal for Gustavsson... he looks like he could be a decent goalie.

 

[Mr Positive]

Yes, and imo the Sens are a great target at the deadline for a forward or goalie, depending on what we need

Seems the opposite to me. They've held their value or even gained it. Stone, Hoffman, Pageau, Bishop, Driedger

I guess you refer to Duchene, Karlsson and Turris? Didnt they show bad signs as Sens though?

You can throw in Ennis and Brassard as well. Ennis I thought was decent for us but in Ottawa system, he's always look like a different player.

Connor Brown. 4th liner on Toronto and now a top 6 player

 

[Akrapovince]

Uhhhh yeah never mind I don’t think you guys need to bolster that third line at all.

as you were.

He’s good to have in your pipeline but I don’t think I see much of a difference in potential between him and Skinner. Maybe Gus is better now, but neither should be dependant to backstop a serious contender.
