No chance Ottawa does this as Artem Zub is way too important for now.
Sure, his name might sound a bit unknown to people who don't follow and watch every Sens games but that guy basically turned over the season by himself. SUre, there was other factors that happened too, like playing Erik Brannstrom or less Stepan/Paquette/Coburn/etc but Zub change the whole complexity of the defense and it eventually became a strength later in the season after it was historically bad in the first 15 games.
I hope Zub will be kept after his current contract, which is only a year before Zaitsev's contract is over.
I don't know how much value Tarasenko has with his age, injury history, AAV and the context with his trade demands but Logan Brown + 2nd + 3rd already has some good value
