Confirmed with Link: Josh Brown to Boston

[dumbdick]

Is the intention to re-sign Senyshyn?

He is reporting directly to the AHL. He will probably earn a 2 way contract and that's it.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

It’s pretty much a nothing trade, which is fine.

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

Is the intention to re-sign Senyshyn?

He's UFA I think, but I could see him re-upping on a two-way given the combination of being a local boy and the opportunity present in our line-up. He's still young, it's not impossible that he could play his way onto the roster as much as any other prospect.

I would have traded him for a jar of Cheez Wiz

I think this trade was only consummated if the Senators took back a contract in return. It helped that he was from Ottawa.

I doubt he is signed here after his contract expires.

Nothing for nothing. Good deal!

I dunno about that... Bruins have a bunch of contract space and Senyshyn is probably owed like $50k at this point.

I doubt he is signed here after his contract expires.

Depends on how much he is offered here, but he definitely won't get an NHL contract, almost definitely won't get a raise on his 200k minor salary, and almost definitely won't find a better opportunity. Plus this is his hometown. If we have any interest, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him back next year.

25 in a couple of a days isn't super young by NHL standards. Basically the same age as Clark Bishop, Dylan Gambrell, Adam Gaudette but has done less at the NHL/AHL level. I know there's pedigree here, but seems like he just kind of is what he is at this point.

 

[playasRus]

Upgraded our 6/7th round pick to a 5th for Josh Brown? Hell yes even if Senyshyn never plays a game.

Senyshyn about to realize he's not even good enough to crack the Senators line up.

 

[McGarnagle]

I've always felt that Senyshyn would've been an okay bottom-six NHL forward if he hadn't been weighed down by the circumstances of his draft position. It may be too late for him to develop, but I think he could contribute with regular playing time on the 4th line on a new team.

He's not untalented, but he's become the poster child for bad draft picks because Sweeney reached for him about 2 rounds too soon while two blue chip forward prospects in Barzal and Connor were sitting there (along with Chabot). So he was thrown into a situation where there was a lot of pressure and scrutiny on him, Boston fans weren't unwelcoming but the mention of his name is basically always followed with "we could've had Barzal...", and honestly the organization never gave him a chance to play regularly in the NHL. His AHL numbers are enough to warrant more than 14 career games, but they wouldn't call him up.

I wish him well in Ottawa, just as long as he's not facing the Bruins.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Be interesting to see what Senychyn does with more icetime.

 

[bicboi64]

Hope he succeeds here (whether he's in belleville or gets called up for the big club). This trade is an addition by subtraction of JBrown, but then again, Dorion went ahead and got Hamonic so in the bigger picture we're still shit

 

[Icelevel]

I’m guessing the talks started around white for debrusk??
Really too bad that couldn’t get done if it was a possibly at all.

 

[Xspyrit]

wow the fact that we are happy with this trade shows how low our expectations are

What would you of preferred for JOSH BROWN?!?!?

I don't think Josh Brown is a regular NHL player so good on Dorion for getting anything... but we are rejoycing over getting a waiver wire player and slightly upgrading a late pick...

 

[mianjo]

I would have traded him for a jar of Cheez Wiz

Would that be a full jar, half full or empty jar?

 

[SensFactor]

Empty

Sens can help with that problem.
