Still a young team. I can see Lindholm being a great fit. Jenner with 50% retention would have a lot of value to a competitor.

Thoughts?

I don’t know why. Jenner fits their style and can put them over the top and have multiple yrs of a very friendly contract. But the Jackets are unlikely to trade him anyways so.

Trading a good 3rd pair D for a bad one seems bad for Ottawa

Unless their goal is to get heavier and some vet leadership. Bran is a bit on the lighter side for a D man while Guddy brings some time to answer the bell. Two very different players. Guddy would let brady be even more well brady lol
