I dont think Philly says yes. I think if Patrick doesn't perform this season hes getting replaced by Frost and they'll trade Patrick

How about Nuge for Tkachuk and Batherson or something along those lines.

hahaha come on man

Who would you suggest Ottawa makes a trade with to get a first line center? Put your money where your mouth is!

What about White or Tkachuk, do they have the potential to be a #1 centre? ( this isn’t rhetorical I actually do wanna know)

I think the point was they don't currently need a 1st line center but they want a prospect or young guy who will be. Needs to be acquired from a team looking to win now. Hayton, Frost, Necas, Borgstrom, Kyrou

I think both project better as wingers, but maybe they'll surprise. I think the best C they currently have in the systems is Brown, and unless he makes a big jump this year, he's probably a 2C or 3C at his best.

Exactly! I mean the dream would be to somehow pry Glass away from the Knights, but if they couldn't get him in the Stone trade, they can't get him.

Chabot for Draisaitl

No. Wouldn't trade either for RNH and even something else like a 2nd or Puuljarvi

Anyway, moot point as the Sens are not looking to trade younger pieces for older pieces



Tkachuk = LW

White = will be a good 2nd line center, if he is not groomed as a Winger.

Norris = will be another good 2nd line center, I personally think he'll be better than White.

Chlapik = Could be a 2nd line center, most likely a 3rd line Center or maybe even Winger (probably on another team because of number's game)

There's also Pageau and Tierney who are still young and good 3rd line Centers.

Logan Brown = 1st line C? 2nd? 3rd? Huge potential, not clear exactly how good he is going to be at the NHL level

And the most important :

The draft picks the Sens will have in the next 2 drafts. The 2020 draft is going to be filthy so they should get away with a very high end Center prospect there.

Don't think they should sacrifice 3 very decent/good prospects and a 1st round pick that we have no idea where it will land (Sharks could miss the playoffs and win the lottery). The two first the Sens have in the next draft are basically untouchable, unless it would be to get a young established star. But it won't happen anyway as Melnyk is not a position to hand out contracts like it would take for Marner, for example.

I am not doing the trade in the OP at all.
