Proposal: Free agency edition Trade Rumours/Proposals [MOD - Stay on Topic] 5

[Bileur]

I’ve voiced this team does not need an overhaul. Needs the right approach and the right coaching and a goalie who can save a puck

One of the least shocking revelations I’ve seen given the starts this team had.

 

[Tuna99]

Pretty bad value for Chychrun IMO.

I think you’d be lucky with just Brogbeeg or a 1st - not both.

Chychryn isn’t that good. He has no distinct talent besides his shot. Not a lot of teams are looking for a D who doesn’t have great hockey sense and doesn’t read the play that we’ll and isn’t physical - Brannstrom mucks more then Chychryn does.

There were actually rumours 2 seasons ago the real. They started bad is because DJ worked then to hard in training camp and they were tired - what a mess of a team it was from top to bottom

Didn't they have the easiest start to the season with minimal games and the excuse was we can't get in a rhythm?

Ottawa

Anybody know if they were trying to move Chychrun at the deadline? And, if so, what happened?

All I can recall is Staois (?) throwing some cold water on the idea that Chychrun was being moved (something to that effect, but I cannot remember exact words).

Just curious if there was more info especially in light of the volume of Chychrun trades in here. I get that btw. We need a defensive RD versus an offensive LD, but I wondered if there was anything from Senators management that sheds some light?

If Norris is good to go then we can let Ostapchuk progress in Belleville and add both jarventie and Norris to the lineup.

That could be all we need up front. Jarventie is an upgrade on Kubalik and Norris (if healthy) is an upgrade on Crookshank.
Crooker/Macewen could be extras.

The defence has looked good with Kleven added. Maybe makes the chychrun vs chabot decision more difficult but looks like just one change there (RHD) is truly obligatory.

Swap the backup if you like. Not sure how much of a difference it will make. But should probably do it anyway.

So just 2 or 3 moves are really necessary way I see it. I like all of the remaining players.

The coach is the biggest decision and has to be a home run.

They probably were.

 

[GCK]

Realistically we probably can’t add more than 1 top 4 RD, 1 middle 6 vet winger who is more defensive than offensive and a little shuffle in goal. Maybe a depth defenceman to replace Hamonic. More than that requires moving out an 8M dollar player.

Wallace is so insufferable

He’s whatever. I don’t listen to the podcast. But some good tidbits do come out of it

RD are tough. Seemingly every team in the league is looking for one.

You're almost better off drafting them than trying to acquire one.

Thing is this is a great year for defensive RD in FA.

Bobby has great insight, Wallace is just pathologically whiney and pessimistic.

Agreed.
(I still can’t “like” cause I’m being punished for 2 months! LOL. I said that Reilly should have got more than 5 games for cross checking Greig in the face. Big no no!! LOL)

Its the best Sens Podcast ,,, Wally is what he is . He is very anal.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

He seems more to me like he's just being realistic, at least sometimes. we are just putting a bow on season 6 of nothing. Hard to be optimistic in this situation.

 

[Laphroaig]

Bringing in another goalie should be the #1 off season priority. I'd love to see this team go hard after Joel Hofer. Binnington has three more years before hitting free agency so I'm hoping the Blues would be prepared to move Hofer to upgrade their mediocre defense corps. I'm sure Chychrun would be a player that would be attractive to St. Louis. I could see Chychrun and Hofer being two pieces in a much larger deal.

 

[BrawlFan]

Chych for Seth Jones? Or Chabot for Seth Jones? I don’t want to trade either. But it seems chych is in many rumours. Probably on the move.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Next time Sonny Milano goes on waivers we should grab him

 

[BrawlFan]

If you can sign Roy RD this off-season you do it. He looks good. Him or Weager.

The only thing I've seen is Staois saying he likes the player and it's a shame that rumours were out there. Also that Chychrun would be a guy he'd be calling about if he were an opposing GM.

I think Chychrun is either going to sign or be moved by July 1.

Chabot's injury is kind of timely. It gives them a decent look at Kleven and how his skills change the mix.

 

[Relapsing]

Not chych for Jones with Jones contract.

So, Chicago is doing this to get a touch younger three years after signing Jones to a massive deal?

I mean, I'd consider it, but idk if we can do it trading Chych due to the cap implications.

Chicago will win the lottery. They'll draft Celebrini. They will win the first of 4 cups in the Bedard Celebrini era in 2026. Seth Jones will anchor the D on three of those cup winners.

This is the NHL way

Depends on what you want to do if you’re Chicago.

Jones is 29 and carry’s 9.5M for 7 more years. Does he fit your window? I’d be surprised if he did and if ownership would not want to move from that cap number. Even if you have to hit the floor you can spend that money more freely.

Sens could use a RHD who eats minutes and plays gritty. He’d look amazing beside Chabby. Fits the age and vet needs. Plus he is not gonna finish that contract healthy.

Doubt any team can easily fit him in at the number without retention.

I think he’s a gamer

Full NMC. Even if you could somehow figure out the structure of a deal with Chicago, good luck getting him to waive to come to Ottawa.

 

[ATdaisuki]

I wish we could get Pesce. I'd go up to Chychrun 50% retained if we could get a deal done with Pesce beforehand. Or Chychrun no retention and JBD. I doubt he'd sign here though and the Canes probably want to keep him anyway. They look like they might have to make a choice between Pesce and Skjei, but maybe they get it all done anyway.
