Description

Thinking they need to get better. With $15 M worth of contracts coming due next year, they will be in a good position to trade with teams looking to avoid a Seattle expansion loss.

Unloading Lucic perhaps is the dream that won’t happen - and the plan falls apart without it - but thats why this post is called questionable.

Other assumptions- Ceci refuses to sign in Ottawa, Nylander has to be kiced to make cap space, and Brown and Sekera wave their NTC.

Questionable?
I'd call that highway robbery for the Toronto trade

Brown is more untouchable then Kopitar or Doughty. So try again.

You really think Lucic waives for Ottawa and Brown for Edmonton? Leafs like that trade, Sens don't.

As I said - some questions there . If Lucic thinks he can still play then maybe he waives it. Brown maybe waives to go to a team that isn’t rebuilding - maybe. Again - a lot of MAYBEs.

As I mentioned above - this would be a trade if they cannot resign Ceci who for whatever reasons decides he wants out. The Sens have made worse trades.

On a rebuilding team, a 34 year old usually isn’t untouchable. This has been a good year but he’s struggled in the past. Kings need to add picks, free up cap space. It’s a big maybe - granted and they might be able to do better - but then I couldn’t have him on this team!
