I doubt Melnyk would sign off on paying a player to play for *any* other club (much less the Leafs) for the rest of this year and the next two, unless the asset value being returned was monumental. It’s just not in the nature of the league’s most notorious pinchpenny.
It’s not that it’s a bad idea in concept. It’s just not an idea the Sens’ present owner seems inclined to consider.
I agree that they won’t retain on Dadonov.
Notably though, Ottawa just chartered a private Jet to fly Forsberg from Winnipeg to Ottawa to avoid a 7 day quarantine. That can’t have been cheap - so it’s a good sign that in some situations the team needs will be put ahead of $$.
Without Forsberg in the squad their goalie tandem would have been Gustavsson (15 minutes of NHL experience) and Mandolese (2 career pro games)

Back on Dadonov, let’s see what 10 games of Logan Brown on the PP can do for him.
