Thread: Sens D moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Augustus</b></div><div>Would Detroit exchange Maatta and the 16th overall pick in the 2024 draft to acquire Jakob Chychrun? I think possibly. Getting another 1st round pick will help ease the sting of the Senators having to give one up probably in 2026, for the Dadonov trade debacle.The second part of this is that, since the Kings may not be able to afford him, the Senators push hard to sign Matt Roy.
Ott:
Sanderson - Zub
Chabot - <em>Roy</em>
<em>Maatta</em> - Bernard-Docker
Det:
Walman - Seider
<em>Chychrun</em> - Petry
Edvinsson - Chiarot</div></div>

It would be nice but I have to agree with <a href="/users/CoachCoach" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@CoachCoach</a>. The Wings have other areas that need to be addressed before we start upgrading other positions.

No, the 16th pick is needed to add a wing prospect or to be a trade chip for an upgrade to a position of need (RHD/2C/TOP6W).


Roy on the other hand, makes a lot of sense for the Wings to try and snag in UFA without the cost of pick 15/16.

Thread: Explanation in thread - Do I finally win over mokumboi
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Augustus</b></div><div>In the absence of an explanation, I have to assume this is a Mox-esque defense of your favorite team's assets.

A starting goalie and a 3LD for a 3LD (let's say, a "number 4 or 5 defenceman", in that parlance), a likely later 1st and a 4th. A Cup winning goalie at that. I'll wait to hear more, if you have more. I've shown to be receptive.

...Though I do appreciate a good quip.</div></div>

Binnington walks a fine line between liable and reliable. My complaint with him is the same as Markstrom... he's "not all there" sometimes and because of that, his team's fate teeters on whether he's in a good or bad place. In New Jersey, he's going to be in a bad place, because they don't really protect the net, which means he's probably going to be pretty pissed off with the guys playing in front of him, and he most certainly doesn't appear shy about those things.

I'd entertain giving them a top 12 protected first next year for the guy, but not with the D... the 4th... whatever, that's a scratch ticket
