Additional Details:
Let me know what you think. On the one hand Karlsson is playing great but on the other he's 32 with 5 years left. This squeezes the Sens pretty hard against the Cap if they want to resign both DeBrincat (duh) and Zub (imo a must-sign). Obviously the big piece here is Batherson, who the Sens would hate to lose - it'd create a huge hole in their left-wing depth. The only reason the Sens would even trade for Karlsson would be to (hopefully) cement the top end of their D-corps for the future, but frankly I think they're better off trying to find another version of the John Marino trade (which they should have pulled the trigger on).

**Comment under the trade should have said right-wing depth**

um I don't think this is quite enough for the sharks to retain like 30 million

San Jose and EK65 both decline.

Try again.

There is no scenario where Grier retains nearly 30million. That simply does not and will not happen.

That said the offer is pretty decent if you add a 1st

I think trading Batherson for a top 4 Dman can make a lot of sense, but they need to get someone of a similar age as the rest of the team. Ideally no older than 27/28. Love Karl, but unless they were getting him for relatively cheap cost to acquire, I think the age and term make it hard to work, and I think his resurgence killed that kind of deal.

San Jose has no reason to sell low on him and it's not in Ottawa's interest to buy high on him.
