The problem with that Sens trade is that there's upside in a potential Murray bounce back, but there's no universe where Okposo bounces back. It's all downside for Ottawa

if the sens want to save real money the trade makes sense with the sabres but i dont see them doing it, they traded for and signed him to that deal and they need murray way more than okposo to help take the next step. If he sucks again year maybe they cut bait with murray but idk if he got a fair shake playing behind the worst defense in the league last year

For several reasons (some were stated by my colleagues), Sens don't do this

And also no reason to try and "save money", not even reaching the cap floor right now

Quoting: Borocop

Yeah, once he came back from injury and Sens finally knew how to play defense, he posted 0.954 SV% in the 5 games he played

I dont think the Rangers do that. If I were GM, I probably do it if Kakko or Chytil come out of the deal.

And not that this is the point of the post, I dont think Trouba would waive. I know we are presuming he would and this is hypothetical, and maybe its possible, but I doubt it

Okposo, Kyle


Wow that's bad for Ottawa.

Yes Okposo is only owed $6MM in real dollars, but the guy had 2 goals last season. This is just silly
