That is a kind of a head scratcher. No idea how anyone could think that they had to make such move, especially that early.
Did not see that coming. How much does Hoffman make? With this move they must feel they won't get Tavares
Dorion was in a tough spot.. player who has been rumored to be on the block for a while now becomes a must trade target due to the media, GM's aren't stupid, they know Dorion can only do one thing.
Great trade for SJ. Once the dust settles + change of scenery i doubt Hoffman will bring any huge drama with him. And he's a lot better than Boedker.
Why would he?
They have a helluva job to convince all 3 of Karlsson/Duchene/Stone re-sign there longterm.
They are looking like the worst team in the league AINEC and they don't even have a 2019 1st
Melnyk saves 5M in salary I guess everyone wins except Sens fans
Anyone have any info on Bergman? (Try to make it sound half decent for us sad Sens fans, please...)
This deal is fine if it means Karlsson stays. That’s a big ‘if’, though.
What if it turns out that Hoffman’s girlfriend never did this, and Karlsson leaves as an UFA?
Is Lehner available?So SJ gets Kane, and now picks up Hoffman. What other dramas will they add to the locker room?
its not like she is staying in Ottawa.....
Also damn good job on their end getting some decent value back for him.
It sure does look bleak. They probably need to blow it up and start over and trading Karlsson could net them a ton of futures.
Sens just wanted to get rid of Hoffman for obvious reasons. It sucks for them but maybe the silver lining is they could potentially keep Karlsson?
