Dorion panics after today's events. Has Garrioch leak rumors about a bunch of big market teams upping their offers on Chychrun after he completes a trade in principal with ARZ, so that it will seem like he beat out those teams and not that he upped his price in reaction to Sens injuries.
Forsberg is out for a long time. He may not be the same next season. Sens need an NHL goalie, but cannot spend 4-6M x multiple years on a UFA in the off season (if anybody is even available)
Greig has settled into the NHL nicely in four games.
Dorion relents and agrees to include Pinto in an Chychrun package if they up the stakes and include Vejmelka. Pinto was the sticking point in the summer. Arizona wanted him, and Ottawa refused.
Pick is top 5 (not top 10) protected in a deep draft. Sens pick is very likely to remain in that 6-14 ball park.
The 2nd is added for Arizona to take Zaitsev.
