Friedman: Ottawa's 7th overall pick is available for trade

[PatLaFontaineASMR]

This is an extremely weak draft.
All teams try to trade away their 1st rounders.
The market return won't be that great

How is it an extremely weak draft? No generational guy, but seems pretty deep.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

#7 +#39 + 23 1st for #15 + JT Miller?

Ottawa wants to improve next season but they won’t do it at the expense of their ‘23 first.

How is it an extremely weak draft? No generational guy, but seems pretty deep.

It is very deep, anyone that has followed the draft to degree will agree.

Lots of guys that are going to go in the second and third this year that would be first rounders in other years.

 

[82Ninety42011]

If one of Jiricek or Nemec is still there at 7 how about Horvat with an extension?

 

[molon labe]

I'd do Pittsburgh's 21 oa + rights to Kasperi Kapanen

Don't think this is a big make or break draft for any team. We either sign him dirt cheap on a 1 year prove it deal or try to ship him off for a 2nd. His QO is 800k FWIW.

Nylander + Niemela
For
7th overall + Pinto + Tampa 2nd

I would say alone that more and more "insider" information are released that teams are willing to part with their 1st rounder speaks volumes

I've always like Horvat but I think we're looking for a skills winger that can keep up with Stutzle. The value is definitely there with your proposal though.

Nylander + Niemela

0% chance we trade 7OA and Pinto for 2 years of Nylander.

Also somebody brought up Boeser, we all know he doesn't hold the value of a 7OA pick, he's soft and offers nothing but a shot. We also need somoen we can sign long-term, not someone with 2-3 years left.

 

[10YearsAfter]

Although Im sure they'd prefer Shane Pinto, Flyers offer Travis Konecny. I for one will
be glad to see TK go. REBUILD > RETOOL for the FlyBoys

What would the Sens need in a deal for Pinto ?

If any of those RHD are on the board we’ll just keep our pick I would think.

 

[Lockin17]

maybe Patrick Kane would like Ottawa

too old and too expensive for OTT ,
They don't even want JT Miller imagine that.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDoo]

What are OTT’s needs?

GM who isn’t a bozo

 

[Akrapovince]

This is a false statement. Its an average draft with good depth but lack of elite talent


Boeser and 15th for 7th, 2nd and Grieg?

Just using this for a baseline, you’re looking at a late first overall pick (about 30th) to move up from 15 to 7.

NHL draft: What does it cost to trade up?

www.broadstreethockey.com

So you are basically asking us to give up a late first round pick, an early second round pick, and Greig, who is a prospect that has done nothing short of amazing to improve his draft stock for Boeser.

Works out to:

30th overall (difference from 7 to 15 quantified) 39th overall, Greig for Boeser.

Too stiff for my liking.

It's sad the Sens didn't choose Konency to begin with over Colin White in 2015. So many insiders had Sens picking Konency when he was still available.

 

[BondraTime]

#7 +#39 + 23 1st for #15 + JT Miller?

Jesus no

Yah that would be best decision for the Sens. Goodluck hopefully one falls to you guys.

I see yah we can't help you there.

 

[Avilaj07]

To Toronto-
7th overall pick
Shane Pinto

To Ottawa-
William Nylander
Justin Holl

 

[Lockin17]

Dvorak + Joshua Roy + pick #29 2022 (Calgary) ,
for
#7

 

[Clamshells]

It would be real nice if yall would stop trying to sneak Pinto into this thread.

 

[BHawk21]

too old and too expensive for OTT ,

6.9mil in real dollars and can retain up to half. Kane is going to produce for another 5 years. The issue would be if he wants to go there...

 

[Akrapovince]

David Savard + Jesse Ylonen + pick #29 2022 (Calgary) , I see Ylonen playing with Stutzle , and Savard playing on the sesond line on defense.
for
#7

This is a sickening offer. David Savard is not what we mean when we say we want a 2RD. We could find someone similar in free agency I would hope. We also do not want to be tied to that contract.

Ylonen should not be mentioned anywhere in a discussion in seventh overall. If we are not confident in Connor Brown to fill a top 6 RW role, Ylonen doesn’t get it done. If you want to talk ceiling we have prospects much better than Ylonen that can step into that role.

If you had the seventh overall pick, would you accept this deal?

Zaitsev, Lodin + 30th overall for 7th??

 

[GermanSpitfire]

To Toronto-
7th overall pick
Shane Pinto

To Ottawa-
William Nylander
Justin Holl

Take out Pinto and Holl and you’re getting somewhere.

Pinto isn’t being traded to Toronto.

If one of Jiricek or Nemec is still there at 7 how about Horvat with an extension?

Horvat extended at 27yrs old is worth way more than the 7th overall pick. Especially with this draft even if Nemec or Jiricek is available.

There would be 20 teams lining up to beat a 7th overall offer for a 27 year old Centre who is dominant at faceoffs and just scored 30 goals.

 

[Sun God Nika]

I'd do Pittsburgh's 21 oa + rights to Kasperi Kapanen

Don't think this is a big make or break draft for any team. We either sign him dirt cheap on a 1 year prove it deal or try to ship him off for a 2nd. His QO is 800k FWIW.

Why would Ottawa fall 14 picks back to get Kapanen?

These are the last few 7th overall picks. Seems more often than not they turn out to be pretty sick players.

Maybe stay waiting on them then?
