Dreger: Sens sitting Ceci and Boedker

[Sensmileletsgo]

Is there a deal to be made around Ceci and Zaitsev with futures coming from the Leafs?

I don't think so. Zaitsez's contract is just way to long.

 

[RandV]

What is dorion’s plan? Make sure Colorado definitely gets Hughes? These guys are still under team control and they have 20 games to play- they need bodies. Trade them at the draft if people are interested

At this point trying to make sure Colorado doesn't "definitely get Hughes" is kind of a sunk cost fallacy. From the perspective of the team today other than being embarrassing whatever pick Colorado gets no longer has an impact on the team.

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

Next season Melnyk will start selling roster spots to fans who want to try NHL action.

Great business idea actually. He would make money from players instead of paying them.

Melnyk approves!

 

[robsenz]

Wow, the best news to come out of Ottawa lately.

 

[TT1]

2 studs..

Isn't there already a rumor out there that he sold a 7th round draft pick to a rich dad? Or was that another team. I think there were rumors about Brad Peltz (Dad is a billionaire), and Cody Rosen who got drafted by the Islanders.

Yep it was Brad Peltz. I think his dad owned Snapple. Melnyk was doing him a favour lol.

Edit: He's runs Wendy's.

Edit: He used to own Snapple.

It's important to note that Ceci and Stone are dating sisters. They are also really close friends. I can see whatever team going after Stone, inquiring about Ceci too.

I could see this as a means to trade Ceci with Stone to a team that will be giving up a defender currently on their roster (Andersson/Valimaki/Niku?)

LOL. Winnipeg? That would be funny. Some ppl will flip.

Lafreniere hopefully.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I am just happy they're being sat..

Rather have Hughes out west then in the east. So why not? We can't get him, might as well make sure he goes as far away as possible

 

[drewjenks]

Imagine being the guy that paid a ticket to see Ottawa tonight and drove to that arena in the middle of nowhere.

"GOLOUBEF? WOHOOOO!"

How about the dad who bought his son tickets for Christmas ....

So he could see his idols play: Duchene, Stone, Dzingel, Boedker & Ceci.

 

[drewjenks]

So the highest paid d-man on the roster will be on an ELC .... making $925,000.

Yup, if you don't include what's currently being retained on Phanuef.

 

[93LEAFS]

Lafreniere hopefully.

Next years top 4 or 5 looks pretty promising. Behind Lafreniere, you have Lucas Raymond. Alexander Holtz, Quinton Byfield, and Anton Lundell.

 

[ottawah]

And thevgoals against are atrocious. Every year.

Well it was in reply to hm having no offensive skill.

And the goals against are likely due to him playing historically tough minutes that few in the league have ever done (post lockout since when that is when they started keeping certain stats).

 

[GreatSaveLuongo]

Dont the Sens have to meet the cap floor even during the season? They literally are playing NHL 19 lol

About 15M below if they trade these guys.

 

[CupInSIX]

Brent Wallace saying both not expected to be traded?

No interest in Ceci, he says.

 

[Brock Radunske]

I'm surprised it took them this long to scratch Ceci.

 

[Byron Bitz]

Sens locker room tomorrow at noon:

Congrats on winning the internet for the day

 

[Kamiccolo]

Is there a deal to be made around Ceci and Zaitsev with futures coming from the Leafs?

There has to be. Sens have to hit the cap floor and either they are going to sign worse deals than Zaitsevs to hit that floor or they will take on a deal that has less term than anyone they'd get as a UFA.

They need draft picks and solid NHLers.

 

[Bevans]

They don't count because the Oilers didn't have Erik Karlsson on their team as their top unit PPQB.

Again. Are you implying that but for Karlsson Ceci would have
1. Been on the 1st powerplay unit
2. Been successful on the powerplay?

I disagree with 1 alot and 2 completely.

Ceci doesn't have that skill set. There is no circumstance in which he'd scored 15 pp points a year.

 

[HockeyDBspecialist]

Quinton Byfield

that's who I am the most impressed with
he's gonna end up 6'6 fast, big and a center. Everything is there
