I just noticed that Girard only has 2 points in 15 games in Colorado.
Not to be happy about someone else's misfortune, but Poile straight stole Turris off of Ottawa as of the results of now.I just noticed that Girard only has 2 points in 15 games in Colorado.

Which is were a 19 old should be
Yep- made no sense to me that he was on some nights playing 23 minutes....
Yeah, I still think Girard is going to be a very good player and since I have a soft spot for Colorado, I'm glad they got him. But this trade was still a no-brainer from Nashville's perspective.
Speaking of which, it has to be kind of rough being an Ottawa fan right now, with all the talk around them potentially having to trade Karlsson and go into a rebuild after they just sent such a large futures package to acquire Duchene. It's going to be really interesting watching where that team goes over the rest of this season and on into the off-season.
Honestly I don't see Ottawa being able to. I'm not sure why he'd want to if things keep going this wayAnd I wonder what Duchene's mindset it right now. Went from one awful situation potentially right into another. If Sens aren't able to sign Duchene long term?? Yikes........

Dorion loved him and thought he was a potential face of the franchise. Unless that drastically changes, especially the price they paid, he's going to get a big contract to stay in Ottawa.
Possibly, but the ball (or puck?) is in Duchene's court- if he wants he can just wait and pick the team he wants to get that big contract from.
Unless a trade happens, Nashville is the last place he ends up.Duchene to Nashville in 2019. Book it!
This year is lost for Ottawa, the Duchene and Karlsson situations depend heavily on how the next season starts to go. All I know, is that they absolutely have to keep them both. They can't go to rebuild after giving up a bunch of futures. It would be a disaster. And I don't see Duchene signing if EK walks.
The location being the Canadian market that gets made fun of for not selling out games? (Average 82% capacity)EK will resign. He is treated like a god there and is a media darling because of his location. Duchene doesn't want to be there. When he is an RFA , Nashville gets him for a song.

I'm not so sure. He may not even be a Senator by the time his contract is up. There is some trade talk going on already and talk of blowing the team up.
