Quoting: athrin
rofl massive pass by OTT, value is massively off, and 2 cap dump going back to ott will cost more than bear, a 1st and nome no-name prospect, Duchene is FAR better than RNH so 1 for 1 is not fair for OTT and you want Dzingle too LOL.
First off, I am an OTTAWA fan.
Secondly, this trade is IF Duchene has no interest in resigning with Ottawa, so keeping him is NOT an option. RNH isn't AS GOOD but he, White, Pageau and (one of) Tierney, Norris, Smith or Paul is pretty good depth at that position.
Thirdly, Maksimov is NOT a no-name prospect, he's a RW that's a bigger (6'3, 200 lbs) and meaner version of what Mike Hoffman was while he played in the Q. Currently in the OHL with over 60 goals and 140 points in his last 100 games, and 140 penalty minutes.
Fourthly .... is not a word BUT Ethan Bear's ceiling is comparable to where Ceci is at and will cost us $5 million less for many many years.
Then there's the 1st rounder and a 3rd rounder.
To be honest, I'm not sure EDM fans would like this deal.
