Confirmed with Link: Trade: Logan Brown to StLouis for Zack Sanford

[PatrickEaves]

Scouting report from St. Louis board: Confirmed with Link: - Sanford traded

Lanky forward with good hands and a decent shot. Gets knocked off the puck pretty easily, but has talent.

Did we just trade for an NHL version of Logan Brown?

 

[OttawaSenators11]

Sanford has 26 goals in his last 110 games (last 2 shortened seasons. Not bad at all. Good third liner.

Yeah he’s better compared to Brown right now for sure

The conditional pick is hilarious.

Even St. Louis, he kids home town, is thinking “We have to hedge our bets here...”

I wish Logan nothing but the best and here’s to welcoming Zach to the lineup. Sanford will be a DJ favourite in no time. Could see him going off like Connor. (McDavid or Brown)

 

[slamigo]

Yeah, this is best for all. I sincerely hope he can figure things out in STL.

They aren't hedging bets, they literally get an extra pick if they play him, that's the opposite of hedging bets.

I thought I read the pick is removed if Logan Brown plays 30 games. Double check time...

I'm not sure we should be expecting him to turn into one of the two best players in the NHL.

St. Lousi has the pick removed, Sens has it added. Sens had the wrong communication

Sens Release
OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators announced today that the team has acquired forward Zach Sanford from the St. Louis Blues in exchange for forward Logan Brown and a conditional fourth-round draft pick in 2022. The condition will be met should Brown play in a minimum of 30 regular-season games for St. Louis in 2021-22.

St. Louis release
"The conditional draft pick is removed from the deal if Brown plays more than 30 NHL games this season."

Sens are giving the pick if he doesn't play 30 games, their press release just doesn't specify that

 

[Liver King]

Is this the top 6 winger Bruce was talking about?

And MDZ the top 4 dman?

Fack

That makes sense

 

[Breakers]

Kind of sounds like a team doing right by a prospect.


But again you only get the “he needs a fresh start” excuse once

 

[Deku]

Sanford could be decent. Wonder if he can play RW.

 

[God Says No]

Lanky forward with good hands and a decent shot. Gets knocked off the puck pretty easily, but has talent.

Good question.

He's either a mid line PF who can score 15ish goals and 30ish points OR he's bambi on ice and doesn't belong in the NHL.
And there's really no middle ground to be found there.

A kid with lots of upside (hands, body), but he needs to believe in himself and get his head right.

Some input from STL fans after I asked about Sanford. Sound like a Brady replacement.

 

[SensPerpetualRebuild]

The conditional pick is genius. Rather than give up another asset, offer to sweeten the pot if Brown plays 30 games. PD is betting he won’t be healthy enough to do that lol.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Sanford has 26 goals in his last 110 games (last 2 shortened seasons. Not bad at all. Good third liner.

16 in 53 games year before last. Can't argue with that too much for a guy that whined his way out after proving zero.

 

[OgieO]

That's a win for PD imo. Sanford is decent and fits what DJS wants to do

Nope, just lousy communication by the Sens. Pick is removed if he plays 30 games, Sens just forgot to mention the main piece of the condition

 

[aragorn]

My guess is that St Louis might not be that good this yr & L. Brown could get in 30 games over the course of an 82 games schedule giving them that 4th rd pick which really isn't that big a deal especially this yr when the Sens have plenty of picks.

IMO this also answers the question of that one open spot that they need to fill in training camp & it's much more likely now that Sanford fills that spot. This makes Ottawa that much bigger & tougher too. This could also spell the end for Sabourin not making the team unless they need him in Belleville & he is willing to go there. Good luck Logan, you will need it.

Now can they move Tierny soon?

Tkachuk - Norris - Batherson
Stutzle - Pinto - C. Brown
Paul - White - Sanford
Formenton - Tierny - Watson

He's about to turn 27 in two months, he's not a kid anymore. He is what he's shown he is.

 

[Sun God Nika]

2016 11th overall pick wasted time to trade him was 2 years ago. I was for it tho at the time the scouting staff doesn’t make a lot of boom bust picks , still looks bad

Yeah I just read the Friedman tweets saying it was removed if he played 30 games. It’s vague and doesn’t reference either the pick or the condition, thought it was the pick as that makes sense, not the condition.

But we’re dealing with Ottawa here.

 

[JD1]

Looks to me like we added an NHL player and got a little deeper at the NHL level

Watching that scrimmage earlier and Brown not exactly giving it, makes me wonder if he knew he was on the verge of being traded

 

[Answer]

So this must be Brady's replacement?

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Finally, that is all. The return is not as bad as I thought it would be.
