Ottawa and Tampa decline IMO

i werdly dont entirely detest that sens trade, brannstrom for bear swap could be interesting but i think the oilers would need to sweeten it a bit more than lagesson and a 2023 second if logan brown is going the other way too. but you wont get sergachev from tampa without bouchard+ going back

OTT declines very easily. Youre asking OTT to trade 2 first round selections, both of whom are still young and have performed exceptionally in the AHL.

Brown >>> Lagesson

Brannstrom >> Bear

The late 2nd doesnt doesnt impress much when OTT already have 2 higher picks in that round.

Ottawa and Tampa decline, And Holland wont pay Ryan Nugent-Hopkin anywhere close to that. Probably at the most 6 x $6,000,000 and Nuge walks to free agency.

To get Sergachev you're going to have to grotesquely overpay and that isn't it.

I don't think Larsson is signing under 3, he'll still be close to 4. Prices for the trades aren't high enough to pry young assets from other teams.
