Seeing as there is league wide speculation that one of our goaltenders are going to get moved out I was wondering what people here think.
I think Ottawa is going to be quite until the deadline when they can reassess what our needs are. At that time more d-men will be available as teams are counting themselves in/out of the playoff race.
I really hope they don't trade a goalie. Neither Lehner nor Bishop are "proven" at the NHL level. We've had goalie trouble for long enough that I think we should be safe rather than sorry, this time around.
Hopefully one or all of Condra, Daugavins, or O'Brien.
There's not enough time to wait and reassess at the deadline. If we struggle in the next week/2 weeks defensively I would be shocked if we don't see a trade.
Aren't we still in a rebuild though? If we are really struggling then why are we trading away prospects for seasoned vets?

I bet a package revolving around Bishop and Regin could be attractive to some teams. Bishop is a guy that can be backup in the NHL with the potential to be better while Regin is a guy who can be a good 3rd liner with the chance of being something more. For our team both of these players are being stuck lower in the depth charts so we could afford to move them for a good return.
I say Da Costa is more likely to be moved then Regin. He is good, but there is no roster spot for him
I agree, Da Costa is definitely on the block for something that fits for the team now but I am unsure as to how his value rates to a player who is a proven NHL commonity like Regin. Either could be a good fit on our second line in the next couple of season at wing, while providing a secondary faceoff option if our primary taker (Turris) were to be kicked out of the dot. This of course hinges on the fact that Alfie retires.

I'm sure most teams that would be interested in a prospect like Da Costa would also be interested in Bishop
Lol, why?
Sorry, I worded that poorly. What I meant was that there would be some rebuilding teams that would be interested in both
