Proposal: 1OA pick to Ottawa

[SensFactor]

Let me preface this by saying that as a Sens fan it was disappointing not to get the 1OA pick but I believe the Sens have enough picks/prospects in the system to trade for the 10A pick and select Lafreniere. Also being a french Canadian, Lafreniere would be a mega hit in a bilingual town like Ottawa right across the river from Quebec and rejuvenate the fan base.

What do you think of this offer?

To Ottawa:
1OA pick (Lafreniere)

To TBD Team:
3rd OA pick (Likely Byfield/Stutzle who could be as good as Lafreniere if not better in the long run)
Isles 1st overall pick in 2020 (This could be in the range of 13-31 depending on where the Isles finish but could be a player like Askarov/Mercer/Holloway/Amirov/Zary)
Sens 33rd OA pick in 2020
Sens prospect Logan Brown (C) who was a former first rounder in 2016.

The drop off after Lafreniere is probably much too large.

Remember, teams have offered much more in the past for a 1st overall pick and been turned down.

Even with guys like Byfield & Stutzle in the mix?

Yes, even with them in the mix.

Ask yourself what the incentive is for the team moving the 1st overall pick? To acquire a mid-1st, a 2nd, and a prospect that has 2nd/3rd line upside?

Another 1OA thread.....

 

[Buffdog]

If the jets get bounced in the play in and happen to cash on the 1st overall, I'd do:

1st
For
3rd and 5th

Straight up

Well it's beefs up the proposal that includes Byfield or Stutzle. Not to mention in a deep draft mid first is no throw in.

From a Ranger POV, if they get the first overall, I don't make that trade.

That's overpay but hey crazier things have happened.

PLUS the 3rd OV pick.

If thats not incentive, then I dont know what is. Sort of makes a difference when you consider its the most valuable asset in the package by far, dont ya think? I dont even do this as a Sens fan because I believe that any of the top 3 can end up being the best player in the draft, depending on how things play out.

 

[AKL]

If my team got 1OA I wouldn't do it unless it was 3+5 coming back. Same with LA, I would require 2+Turcotte.

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Jets are the only team I could see trading it to move down to #2/#3

Wild could too. They need centers in the system.

If you think Byfield or Stutzle have the potential to be as good as Lafreniere in the long run, why does Ottawa do this deal?

 

[Baksfamous112]

As others said, to me, it would require #3 and #5 overall.

Sens need help now and Lafreniere is NHL ready. Plus I said "potentially".

 

[AKL]

If you think Byfield or Stutzle have the potential to be as good as Lafreniere in the long run, why does Ottawa do this deal?

I'm assuming it has to do with the QC part he touched on, but also the fact that Lafreniere is a much safer bet to reach that potential. While Byfield and Stutzle could be better, they also very likely could not. Especially in the case of Byfield.

Wrong.

Would be a pretty steep overpay

 

[JTToilinginToronto]

If NYI gets the 1OV by some miracle:

1st overall
Andrew Ladd

For

3rd overall
2021 NYI first round pick

 

[Golden_Jet]

huge overpay
3OA, mid first, 33OA,Logan Brown
to move up 2 spots

Byfield isn't getting past LA! Many mock drafts & experts have them taking Byfield.

T. Stuzzle is a large dropoff from Byfield and especially Laf

 

[GSG1165]

Too much for Lafreniere. Ottawa needs a #1 centre and high draft picks are the best way to get that.

 

[AKL]

This isn't even remotely correct.

according to who, not according to most experts.

I'd wouldn't do it if I'm Ottawa. You are giving up basically a 3OV, 2 mid 1sts, and the 33OA (so basically a borderline 1st).
