That’s a whole lot of retention and taking back a cap dump for not much in return

Sean Durzi is a RhD, and so is Bernard-Docker, who is more than a year behind Durzi despite having been selected ahead of him in the same draft. Bernard-Docker has 71 professional games under his belt, Durzi, 155. Durzi has a full NHL season on his resume, in which he performed better than anyone expected, and had a better career at the AHL level than JBD, who has only 13 NHL games on his record. There is absolutely no reason why Los Angeles would consider this trade, or any metric which would justify it.

Not interested in any of that, Couture is also not needed at all

The fact that people still propose forwards to Ottawa is way beyond my comprehension

For now, they need 1 Top-4 RD and nothing else.

Also why would Durzi be worth that much already?


I am not doing any of that

San Jose isn't eating $20,000,000 for a bunch of meh, Brannstrom isn't that great and Zaitsev sucks. The Sharks pass on the Couture deal.

No ones retaining and taking Zaitsev back. Ridiculous and Couture has an NTC hes not going to a bad team

He's on one of the worst teams in the league right now. if I were him I'd instantly waive to get out of that dumpster fire and go back to the city I played jr in and have a chance to compete.

Yeah to compete, Ottawa is a longshot playoff team

San Jose won't make the playoffs ever again at this rate. Not rebuilding but not making the playoffs either. I'd take my chances elsewhere.

Yes, but not in ottawa
