Description
This was a serious 'what if the sens offered this to the Rangers for the 1st overall pick.' I almost drove my suv off the road. I'm so glad Rupp isn't a GM for the Sens... Or anyone for that matter

Rumor was 3rd and Tkachuk. Still, neither team is doing this.

You shouldn't trade Lafreniere's potential. If he's a superstar, it's a stain that isn't going away.

Stutzle or Byfield can just as easily be super stars... Plus another star in the making.

Lafreniere is more of a sure thing. Potential is also much higher as their bust potential is. Not to mention the risk of trading down, trading a superstar, getting underwhelming assets back. You don't play those games with top guys like Lafreniere, Matthews, Hughes, McDavid, Dahlin, etc. That's why they never did it.

Yeah I saw that on Twitter. It's not even really worth considering lol. Awful deal for Ottawa.

Thankfully Dorion made it very clear in his press conference that the Sens would be staying put with those two top 5 picks.

Were talking about picking 3rd not picking 13th lol. Bust potential is still very minimal. Plus getting an established 21 year old powerfoward with massive potential too. I agree you don't trade super stars. But not all drafts are created equal. I wouldn't do it for McDavid. But I'd sure as hell do it for hughes

Tkachuk is way more of a sure thing than Laf lol.

Yeah it was 3 and tkachuk, and I wouldn’t do it if I were Ottawa either. The only thing is, he said that’s what it would take to get 1 from the rangers. Essentially, they will only do it for a lindros type return and I don’t blame them. Laf is a stud.

Why do people think we want 1, 3+5 combined will produce 2 fantastic players (Chucky already is one) and it fits the needs of our rebuild better anyway

Yeah I'd ask that price too if I'm the Rangers. But dorion already said he's not looking to trade to 1. Now if it was a reasonable price I'm sure he would. But Gorton doesn't have to make it reasonable. So it's really pointless talking about it. It's frustrating it keeps coming up in the media
