Yeah i doubt Winnipeg has interest in paying Matt Duchene $48 million over the next 6 years, Pretty sure they easily decline.

Ottawa has no use for yet another 3C

Ottawa doesn’t have any incentive to do this deal. Bonino @ $2.4MM for 1 year is fine, but the Sens have a lot of forwards, so to pay a 2nd for an unnecessary player doesn’t make sense. Nashville needs to make it worthwhile for Ottawa. They need to pay Ottawa an asset to take Bonino, and his contract.

Ottawa centre depth with NHL experience
White
Norris
Tierney
L.Brown
Anisimov
Chlapik
N.Paul

And of course they could have Stutzle or Byfield, each would get at least a 9 game tryout.

Appreciate the thoughtful response. I guess I got hung up on the fact that Ottawa is payin less for the 4.1mil cap hit, and has an abundance of picks. I do think that Bonino is the one center the Preds have that does not have a prohibitive contract. Ottawa may not be the right fit, but I’m convinced the Preds could get a mid-round draft pick for him and not be forced to sell him off like they’d have to do for Turris or something.

I hear ya. Throw the #11 draft pick in there to sweeten the deal? It’s probably all moot because it would be an in-division trade.
