Initially I read this thread title as “Duchene on trade block”.

Which is what I expect it to see, given another six months or so.

FWIW, a number of people around the organization seem pretty confident that he will sign an extension in July.

If Sakic has a skill as GM it's chopping a car for parts.

With today's trade, he's parleyed a disgruntled Duchene into:

Sam Girard
Shane Bowers
Vladislav Kamenev
Andrew Hammond
Justus Annunen
Danila Zhuravlyon
Ottawa's 2019 1st
Ottawa's 2019 3rd

That's over a full draft worth of players there.

Since the Avalanche got Duchene, O'Reilly and Barrie out of the same draft, they have those 8, Barrie, JT Compher, Nikolai Zadorov, AJ Greer, Cam Morrison and Dennis Smirnov to show for that.

Sakic actually created an entire starting lineup. :laugh:

Kamenev- OTT 1st -Bowers
Girard - Zhuravlyon
Annunen

OTT-3rd Round (trade potential)

At least a bench for this team.


If Ottawa all the sudden offered Tkachuk for their pick back, I'd rather take the gamble on next year. Zadina is the only player I'd take over next year's gamble.

Ottawa at Colorado October 26th
Colorado at Ottawa January 16th
A couple of negative 4 point games

The Athletic whacked some stats and from a purely positional basis of the draft pick, they said Ottawa was better off taking the pick this year if they keep Karlson, if he leaves they would have been better off giving the #4 up.

Duchene is a damn good player.
He's loyal, too, so there's a good chance he extends.
And there's a good chance he has a good season.
BUT, he's not a guy that can carry a team.
He puts too much pressure on himself, and gets inside his own head.
And then he has a long dry spell, while he tries too hard to get back on track.

I still can’t believe the Sens skipped over Zadina.

AVs should contact the Wings offering the Sens Pick, they had an incredible draft: Zadina, Veleno, Berggren & McIsaac. I’m just stunned with their haul.

Would Ottawa fans trade Duchene back to Colorado for their 2019 first round pick back? Would Colorado trade that pick back for Duchene?

If you even had to think about it that is the answer (at this point).

Duchene is so overrated why would he wanna resign with Ottawa if their in a rebuild mode? He's better off asking for a trade. Teams with a good fit
Islanders, Rangers, Flyers,Penguins,Red Wings,Sabres,and Hurricanes.

Duchene isn't coming back to Colorado. It was best for both parties to part ways.

I feel awful for Ottawa. They're going to be as good as they can even though they should be rebuilding. They need a player like Hughes to even be able to compete with Leafs, Buffalo, Tampa, Boston etc. Now they have Tkachuk and are throwing him into the fire. Too bad really. Hope he spends 4 years in college and begins his NHL career on the right foot.

It's basically Kessel to Toronto 2.0 isn't it?

I mean sure it has the potential to be similar in that Ottawa gives up a high pick, but that hasn’t happened yet so no it’s not basically Kessel to Toronto 2.0.

What help is coming? Hoffman is gone, Karlsson is seemingly next, and they just finished near the bottom of the league.

Deep prospect pool ,return of possible deal for EK..Or just resigning EK and having better health ......Either way we could very well be much better next season
