Proposal: Capdump for sens

[NHL Dude 120]

Can I get back to you next summer about taking Erik Johnson's $6m off our hands?

I mean his numbers aren't the worst and we need a replacement for Hainsley. The sens need to use the cap hit to get a couple 1st round picks if we can.

Gotta sweeten the pot if you want us to take a contract dump. We’re not giving up the pick

It wouldn't be a cap dump. Looking at the Sens roster, There's only 4 dmen signed. Lajoie and Brannstrom COULD both be full-timers next year but even then the team needs another dman in the veteran role Hainsey played this year.

Sens will have Zaitsev, Chabot, Reilly, Wolanin essentially guaranteed spots, with Boro almost certain to get one, too. Zub seems like he may very well sign with us, and I suspect he steps into our top 6 immediately (so, if you're counting, we're up to 6). Hainsey might be re-signed, and then Jaros, Brannstrom, Lajoie, Thomson and Alsing will all compete for a spot. I would rather Russell than Hainsey, but the Sens aren't exactly itching for DMen. Young guys will get lots of opportunities.

He’s a capdump no matter what roster you try and dump him on.
