I think he’s a better option than Ennis but Sens would definitely have to retain on Namestnikov.

This is a longer version of what I just saidBetter option as in better player?
I think it's obvious Ennis is a faster better skater and puck handler. Ennis is a better playmaker. Both of their shots are insignificant.
Namestnikov is a semi skilled semi grinder that can do a little bit of everything.
Ennis is a little waterbug out there. He can skate circles around guys down low, change directions on a dime, which means he creates like 2-4 high quality chances almost every single game.
So if you want a guy who can almost seemingly create chances like a high end player without being a high end player, go with Ennis. If you want a more average, less flashy player who can kinda do anything, go with names.
But after watching both for most of the season, Ennis looks significantly better at offense and it's not even close. Ennis creates by himself. Namestnikov most certainly does not create anything by himself.
He is a UFA keeping any of them would be absolutely moronic if they dont sign an extension prior to 3 pm.Rather keep Ennis, he plays with ton of heart and has decent skills. Namestnikov would be the one to move. Could be had for a 3rd rounder.
That's an average return to be honest. Why 2022? I'd rather trade them separately.He is a UFA keeping any of them would be absolutely moronic if they dont sign an extension prior to 3 pm.
Ennis + Tierney for a 2nd 2022 and Puljujarvi?

At this point, I'd keep Ennis. We have enough picks but not enough players and Ennis has showed up almost every night this year to chip in, one way or another. Wouldn't mind extending him one bit.
I don't think there will be any issue re-signing him, and I think him being in the lineup is worth more to us than another 4th next year. We have 22 picks in the next two years - half of them in the first 2 rounds - and we'll probably accumulate more before 2021 draft. I say keep him unless the offer is really great. I wouldn't be upset if he's dealt for a 4th, but I would rather hold onto him than add another mid-rounder.He still doesn't have a contract though, it makes sense to move him. I like his game, but asset management..
You gotta have warm bodies. We acquired Ennis off free agency. We could get another **** player like him next season if we wanted. Keep him to keep the young guys in BellevilleHe still doesn't have a contract though, it makes sense to move him. I like his game, but asset management..
Whats Khaira bring though? Id rather get a 3rd in 2022 personally.Ennis for Khaira could work for both sides. OTT doesn't need more 4th rounders IMO.
He is currently a part of a top 2 penalty kill in the league, so theres that at least.Whats Khaira bring though? Id rather get a 3rd in 2022 personally.
Ennis for a 4th and a warm body. Does Edmonton have any forwards they can throw in the deal?

This is partly why Edmonton would be hesitant to move him. At times he can be an effective forechecker, although he usually leaves you wanting more.He is currently a part of a top 2 penalty kill in the league, so theres that at least.
More like Tyler Wenis, amirite?
