Trade them or sign them?
The best information I can give you as I write this: You are going to hear both possibilities in each case. My belief is the Senators are going to test the market for all of them, while reserving the right to keep any particular player if they can agree on terms.
The players obviously have a big say in this, and, even though the organization would like to know as soon as possible, the fact is that deadlines spur action — and the only deadlines now are soft. One of the difficult things about covering this on a daily basis is that feelings change. While Duchene has been very public with his thoughts, Stone, a more private person, hasn’t. He’s made it very clear he doesn’t like anyone guessing what he thinks, so you have to be careful.
The safest thing to say is that, at different times, feelings change. A player may lean one way, then another. The Senators, wisely, have held the position that if they want to keep someone, they will wait out any uncertainty as long as they possibly can.
To protect themselves, my belief is they are going to look around. But, again, until told they’ve got no chance at keeping people — or they decide they can’t — they will wait.
So, let’s check the market. The big-game hunters for rentals
are Calgary, the Islanders, Nashville and Winnipeg for sure. I’ll have more on Boston below, but the Bruins are lurking. Columbus is incredibly intriguing, because, if they don’t keep Panarin, they will use what they get for him to add. I think Pittsburgh and San Jose would be there if they had more assets. Jim Rutherford and Doug Wilson are fearless, but previous moves prevent this.
Vegas is another interesting one. They did it last year. But does George McPhee feel strongly enough about his group to do it again? I could also make arguments for Tampa, Toronto and Washington to pull surprise moves. They have the pieces; I just can’t measure the will.
Things are about to get busier. But, as I’ve been warned, don’t jump to conclusions.
ahhhh let me sleep on it...

"One is expected to play," shared the coach. "I'll make my decision after warm-up whether we're going 11 & 7 or if we're going 12 & 6."

The current point cutoff for making the playoffs is 67 points... will we finish over or under that amount? We are currently on pace for 68.8 pts with 47 after 56 games
If we win we'll be on pace for 70.4...
If we get 1 point we'll be on pace for 69.0...
If we lose flat out we'll be on pace for 67.6...
I am guessing we finish with more than 65 but less than 70
If we win we'll be on pace for 70.4...
If we get 1 point we'll be on pace for 69.0...
If we lose flat out we'll be on pace for 67.6...

Really? I am not sure they will find much pride in 3oth vs 31st... Maybe as a joke like "Hey we weren't the worst team" .. but not much pride
