Package Ceci, Dzingel and another player we won’t need in the future for the best D-man possible. Of course, they’ll have to agree to extend with that team; don’t trade them as rentals.
Trouba +?

Oh yay that's cool and in the small chance that the 1st rounder even comes close to the player that Dzingel is in 5 years, are we gonna trade that asset too for a future because we can't afford $5M player?
The viscous cycle continues.
Well, that's pretty much it.
We only have a finite amount of resources we can use to keep players, so we have to cycle guys out for assets significantly more than an average team.
Dzingel at 5M on a cap team is probably okay, even if he's not gonna go a 30 goal player every season. Dzingel at 5M on Ottawa could compromise our ability to lock down Tkachuk's, Chabot, and whoever else breaks out to long term cost controlled deals after their ELCs expire.
Agree. This is how I feel about it too. We simply can't afford to keep Duchene, Stone and Dzingel, and expect to be able to afford the likes of Chabot, Tkachuk and other rookie breakouts in a few years. Stone obviously takes priority because he's the heart and future captain. Duchene is also a priority because he's a center, and top line centers are much harder to find.
Unless Dzingel agrees to a 2-3 year deal, I doubt we'll keep him. He might be very valuable at the TDL. He'e very good, fast and has a very low cap hit.
No chance we offer, or he accepts, a 3million dollar deal. A history of 20 goals gets you more than that to start.
I was talking about the length of the contract.... So like a 2-3 year $5M deal or something. But I doubt he wants that either.
Definitely not imo.. No interest in Puljujarvi hereWould you do?:
EDM: Dzingel, Wideman
OTT: Jesse Puljujarvi

Dzingle really starting to look like someone I would want to keep... so of course we will get rid of him now
Last game was best game ive seen him play and looks like he's gone from complementary top 6 player to a stable top 6 guy.
He just keeps getting better.Dzingle really starting to look like someone I would want to keep... so of course we will get rid of him now
He just keeps getting better.
I think the Sens priority should be to sign him. A late first round pick has very little chance of scoring 20-30 goals/year over the next 5 years.
If he refuses to sign than they will have to get what ever they can ... but I don’t think his trade value offers our rebuild any accelerated growth.
Which defies all logic.
It's like... he's going to be 27 years old before the season is over. 99% of players don't keep improving at this age, but he's just been consistently better from year to year.
Frigging kudos to him. I was all but certain he'd top out as a 3rd line guy, but he's found a way to get better at an age where almost all other players have already plateaued in their development.
