Even Ottawa didn't wanna cough up their 1st round pick to keep him, 2nd + prospect.

vegas is going to get a mid first and prospect for him, especially if vegas drafts a lot of defenceman because then they are basically controlling the market

Rumored ask from Ottawa was 2018 1st. Doubt any team does that with the new lottery.

You have to include that they might have lost Claesson if they protected Methot

If Ottawa made a deal with Vegas to keep Methot they would have told them who to pick (or they would have given them a list of players to choose from), that's usually how it works.

Evander Kane for Methot? Gives Vegas a young player who they can at worst flip at the deadline for picks

Should be some interest:

Habs: Methot + mid 2nd for their 1st + Mete

Buffalo: Methot + 3rd for 2x2nds and Gorges

Dallas: 29th overall for Methot.

Avs: Methot for their 2nd and a decent prospect

Devils: Methot + 3rd for the rights to Kovalchuk + a 2nd

I'm fairly sure Ottawa could beat most if not all of these offers he were going for that cheap.

I find it hard to believe that Ottawa couldn't have swung a deal seeing all of the softie deals that McPhee is giving other teams that protected guys....

From what I heard in conversation with an ISS regional scout, the Sens were given two offers:

Not taking Methot
for
28th, Chlapik
- at which point they would most likely take Claesson

OR

Agreeing to take Borowiecki
for
47th, White

if mods want I can provide proof that I was told this by an ISS regional scout. That said, he is far from an ironclad source. He hears a lot and not all of it turns out to be accurate.
