Fine TOR Fans Holl2MN

Ottawa might have to add beyond the 7th overall pick to get Fiala, the difference there isn't Greig. That deal is a huge L for Ottawa

Same OTT should say no, That contract isn't going to age well and becomes a real problem with Norris, Stuzle, Sanderson, and others who need long-term deals.
As well there will be a top 6 winger available at 7th overall this summer who likely only needs one year in the AHL.

If Dorian can wait that long… seat seems pretty warm

Fiala is a damn good player and is only 25. I don’t think this is a bad contract at all. Cap is likely going up in 2 years so this could be a bargain.

It is if there’s a bidding war and Dorian wants Fiala bad enough. The value is what the current market says it is.

Hopefully, he isn't that dumb to risk the long term for the short term, although there isn't much I wouldn't put past him to try.
If Forsberg comes back at the same level he was playing at the end of the season last year, Sens will be in a playoff hunt. They are going to add a top 6 player somewhere and the rest of the prospects are going to be a year better. Having Pinto for a full season at 3C will make a huge difference as well.
