Traded [WSH/OTT] Connor Brown for 2024 2nd round pick

[Micklebot]

I'd take Barrie if it meant Zaitsev going the other way with Brown.

Eh, Barrie is the polar opposite of what we need. Better ways out there to ditch Zaitsev imo.

 

[Qward]

Did we trade him so Giroux can have his number?

 

[Icelevel]

Perfect for Edmonton. Hoping we get something good. NOT pulijarvi

 

[Hale The Villain]

Sounds like they really believe that Sanderson can insulate any offensive RD they get. A lot of belief in a guy that hasn't played in the NHL yet, but I get it.

I would much prefer they get a defensive RD to allow Sanderson to develop his offensive game and not be afraid to rush the puck.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Brown being moved has always felt inevitable.

The type of player you love on his current contract but don't want to give him the next one.

We squeezed the juice and got off the pot at the correct time imo.

 

[SensBrawler]

Gonna miss Brown.

 

[SensFactor]

Brown was one of my favs...hope its not just Poolparty

 

[Psycroptic86]

Losing Brown will suck, let's hope the return is good.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Thanks for playing a vital role in that 5-1 comeback.

 

[Hale The Villain]

If we're trading Brown for something based around Barrie and Puljujarvi, Zaitsev better be accompanying him to Edmonton.

Fair value would be Brown straight up for Edmonton's 1st (with top 5/10 protection). I'm expecting Puljujarvi + 2nd though.

 

[JimmySpaetzle]

Love him, but not at what his next contract is gonna be

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Maybe a team wants a bunch of picks for their top-4 dman and we get those here.

 

[Tap on the Ankle]

was a great player for the Sens

hopefully he can put up some big points with McDavid and get himself a nice contract

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Spectacular asset management by Dorion. Just spectacular. I was upset because we did not move him last trade deadline(for maximum(, but this summer might be even better decision as all the pieces have fallen to place without fall back.

I am expecting a great return. Top 10 protected 1st or 2nd+ great prospect or something of that ilk.

 

[Qward]

In truth I havent penciled him in for awhile. It felt inevitable.

Lol a first I'd laugh there's no way......unless?

That seems a little rich. I’d significantly lower your expectations

 

[robsenz]

I don't like this, I don't see a scenario in which we win this trade unless its a 3 way with another team. Prove me wrong Dorion.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

They're freaking out on the radio about it and how we can get a 1st at the deadline. Thing is there's always a chance of injury and Brown isn't putting up 50 points on a Sens team with a healthy Batherson and Giroux on the top 2 lines. His opportunities are going to decrease if he stays.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

That seems a little rich. I’d significantly lower your expectations

Connor Brown at trade deadline commands a 1st easily.

For a full season for a team kind of desperate to add to their roster talent that mirrors Brown, they will give us what we need. I'm expecting at worst a fair deal.

 

[Comely]

From 3 browns to zero, too much fiber in our diet

How do you figure? The FA pool is pretty deep at forward. Can't see Edmonton giving up a significant package.

This feels like a salary dump where we take what we can get.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Hoping for picks and/or a prospect.

We need cap space if we want to get a top 4 D.

You wont find anything close to Brown for the caphit he will have next year in FA pool or anywhere else really. Plus Edmonton chance to re-sign him first.

We have the advantage here.

 

[TheDebater]

I might be in the minority but I absolutely love Jesse Pul, and you guys will love him too. He has so much potential still for a former 4th overall pick, people are underrating this guy because he was overshadowed by two mega stars in Edmonton.
