News: Duchene intrigued by free-agency route after watching Tavares

[Dog]

Pass the duchy on the left hand side.

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

The isles need a 1b center

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

Inspired by Tavares, he's Free Agency bound, so he can live his childhood dream... and play for his favourite team growing up.

Amirite?

He already played for his favorite child hood team

 

[Agent Zub]

Honestly I found that some pretty odd wording from Duchene...I don't think he necessarily meant he doesn't want Karlsson as a teammate, but he definitely meant something even if he didn't intend on saying it.

i just think that everyone expects karlsson to leave. either by trade or free agent.

 

[GodEmperor]

If he's playing in the Tr91tor way he's already messed up by saying he's interested in Free Agency lol. He needs to say the exact opposite for the next 9 months and then do a 180.

Get over it buddy, not everyone wants to waste TWO decades in a disgraceful organization, one is enough for most.

I can't imagine what the Senators will look like a year from now if EK, Duchene and Stone are all out.
They might have to do something stupid like eat Lucic's contract just to meet the cap floor.

As an Islanders fan who Lee, Eberle and Nelson will be UFAs next summer, just looking at the Sens trade list before the deadline scares me how it will devalue our guys. lol

Dushene,Stone,Ceci,Karlsson are all gonna walk come July 1st. Wow plenty of cap money to spend next year, with half the team gone. Lol

Keeps getting worse for Ottawa and their fans

Ceci walking would be a blessing. He does not belong in the same sentence with those other 3.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

We're gonna need a bigger boat...

Some good video here too

Sounds to me like he's saying it depends on how good the Sens are as a hockey team, as he doesn't want to waste his career with a losing team. So if the Sens are the tire fire we all expect this year, I think he's gone

How do you know so much about hockey?

 

[swiftwin]

Ceci is not an UFA. Dzingle is though.

No. Ceci is UFA next summer, Dzingel is RFA next summer.

If anything it might make it a bit easier to retain them if that's what your organization wants to do.

Oh wow Cici too. Never realized that. Add another to the list.

 

[Number1RedWingsFan52]

He said he wants to re sign in Ottawa, if he wanted to walk why would he say that?

Yeah pretty sure that John Tavares said the exact same thing about the NYI, And look what happened.

 

[Sensung]

No. Ceci is UFA next summer, Dzingel is RFA next summer.

Ceci is a RFA
Cody Ceci

Dzingel is a UFA
Ryan Dzingel

You were saying?

 

[Mr Positive]

This shouldn't come at a surprise... If Karlsson is traded or not extended, do you really see either of Stone or Duchene sticking around? Those are players who could play for any team in the league (depending on their contract demands), so why would they stay in Ottawa?

Which blanket did they sleep with?

 

[204hockey]

he wld be mighty fine between ehlers and laine

 

[Stephen]

Not sure how a common player like Matt Duchene can be inspired by the UFA King of the past decade. His point of reference may as well be Tyler Bozak.

 

[Bizz]

doesn't Duchene know that he has to be, you know, good in order to rake in the cash in Free Agency?
