See, it's not that hard to at least go half way to having an adult conversation. You're not quite all the way there, but I appreciate the effort.
Pageau is on the block, I don't think there's anything more to say there. He's a big time trade chip and he's a UFA, the Sens will trade him. Connor Brown is doing well, and is a good piece, so - as I said - it would take serious assets. It would be a hockey deal.
Do you consider Connor Brown an untouchable player?
I suggest you take a long hard look at Ottawa's situation.
First they work under a fake cap.
Boedker and Namestnikov are both gone one way or the other....
They have 4 or 5 rookies they will be bringing up this year plus Byfield?maybe..
They need a framework for these guys....
Ottawa will be losing their fake cap on two guys for next year....
So your Dorion and you have to find a way ge t fans in the seats.....
Pageau is not on block....its a ploy ...an obvious one to keep his number low....
Connor Brown obviously not untouchable but the perfect winger for them now --an experienced winger and an RFA they can control the price on....thus they would want real good value for him....a second wouldnt do it...
Ottawa would want youth ....a very young high quality prospect or a very high pick.....
Holland's not a big spender to begin with...
So Mr. Grownup ....what price do you suggest we pay for such items....have you got a price in mind or like a child you are just dreaming ....
