Rumor: Ottawa looking to add bottom 6 centre

[Liver King]

Sissons?

What’s the price on Trenin

 

[KevinRedkey]

Sean Monahan would be my target if he gets healthy
Otherwise Kerfoot

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Sissons?

Too much term, too much money.

 

[Petes2424]

The Sens would be smart to look at Pius Suter. Plays in ever situation, any position, on any line.

Derek Grant
Dmitry Kulikov (50% retained)

for

Yegor Sokolov


Sens ship Brannstrom to a third team to recoup a pick or prospect.

Zero interest in Kulikov, zero interest in moving Sokolov. Zero interest in moving Brannstrom.

Sean Monahan would be my target

If he was healthy, he's the ideal. Good enough to make a difference, too expensive for most teams.

Brannstrom as a 7th D makes less than zero sense for the team or player at this stage IMO

I'm glad Ottawa management feels differently.

 

[Qward]

What if Montreal retained 50%? Dvorak's caphit would be 2.225. Would probably cost a 1st rounder then though.

We had to pay to get rid of Zaitsev. We need every penny for DeBrincat, Pinto and then Sanderson.

Where is he ever fitting into the current group?

3rd LD

Chabot Zub
Chychrun Sanderson
Brannstrom Hamonic (or Thomson next season)

Edit: Or, he likes playing RD if the coach will let him, so

Came to say this

Gross, they need a guy on a one year deal similar to the Bjugstad deal. No interest in that term or price tag. They have Norris coming back next year and Grieg who should be ready next season.

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

I don't see why some are saying term is an issue so long as the guy is cheap. Sens bottom 6 has been bad and they need to upgrade on Kelly and Gambrell. Next year the bottom 6 likely features some combo of Joseph, Kastelic, Greig, Pinto and Gauthier.

I'd be looking for a guy who can play wing and centre on a <2.5M deal.

Term is fine, term for expensive players is not

 

[bert]

No chance.

Extra two years is a deal breaker.

And he isnt very good. Especially for the hilarious price tag they want for him.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

They should look at Turcotte imo

You can have Joseph and a 3rd.

Sanderson will never be RD. Chychryn more likely.

Also, JBD>Thomson

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Sissons?

With 50% cap retention, yes.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Jason Dickinson has had good bounce back year with Hawks

Could be good add by Sens and shouldn't cost more than mid round pick

To
C Jason Dickinson

To
Lightnign 2024 4th round pick

Too much term, too much money, and if Ottawa was willing to give up a 4th, they would have grabbed someone already.

If someone isn't looking to dump someone for, like a 6th, I don't think Ottawa is interested.

 

[jmelm]

Bonino from the Penguins for a 1st?

 

[LMFAO]

If Ottawa serious about that wild card spot, a bottom 6 C seems quite likely today.

Nashville fans, whats the price for Trenin?

A whole lot and a whole lot more.

 

[absolute garbage]

We had to pay to get rid of Zaitsev. We need every penny for DeBrincat, Pinto and then Sanderson.

Yes but that would be only like 1M above a minimun salary guy. Plus Pinto's next deal should be relatively cheap bridge. I think it would be doable. Of course whether it's worth it is another story.

 

[bert]

You can have Joseph and a 3rd.


Sanderson will never be RD. Chychryn more likely.

Also, JBD>Thomson

God no. Joseph brings much needed speed. Dvorak is not what this team needs.

Sanderson is the one who i think moves to right. His escapability is the best on the team.

 

[IranCondraAffair]

Sanderson will never be RD. Chychryn more likely.

Also, JBD>Thomson

Chychrun sucked as a RD in Arizona. Sanderson is great with the puck which is what a LHD on the right side needs.

 

[Dooble08]

I know you don’t want term….but…Scott Laughton?

 

[IranCondraAffair]

They should look at Turcotte imo

Turcotte is the opposite of what Ottawa is looking for. A young, former high end pick who needs a scoring line, likely requires an expensive asset to acquire, and would need a spot on the team next season.

Ottawa is looking for the opposite of that. An experienced, bottom-6 guy who is cheap to acquire and isn't signed beyond the season OR is signed cheaply for next season as well.

I know you don’t want term….but…Scott Laughton?

Too much term, too much money, too expensive to acquire, but the ideal style of player Ottawa would look for.
