Best case scenario involving our conditional draft picks

Created by: sensonfire
Team: 2023-24 Ottawa Senators
Initial Creation Date: Mar. 6, 2023
Published: Mar. 6, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
1. The New York Rangers win a playoff round this year.

It would most likely be against the New Jersey with the Devils having home ice advantage.

If that happens, Ottawa would get a 6th round pick from the Rangers instead of a 7th round pick in the Tyler Motte trade.



2. The Ottawa Senators reach the Eastern Conference Finals this year.

We would have to ...



A. Make the playoffs by securing a wild card spot.

B. Probably beat Boston in the 1st round with the Bruins having home ice advantage.

C. Win the 2nd round against either Tampa or Toronto with the Lightning or the Leafs having home ice advantage.



If that happens, Arizona would get Ottawa's 2024 1st with Top 10 Protection instead of Washington's 2024 2nd in the Jakob Chychrun trade.

If that happens, Arizona would get Ottawa's 2023 1st at #29 overall.

Same reason why we wouldn't sign Formenton.

This might be the dumbest comment I've seen all year so far, and I'm not really worried about it being surpassed any time soon.

Trading him would 100% be an issue.

He would go from having one of the best contracts in the league to being a cap dump.

It would be devastating for Ottawa.

Has there been an update in the case? I'm not sure if the Senators would do the right thing and dump him unless he was proven to be involved. I just tried looking it up again but didn't find much

London Police appear to have grounds to charge at least 5 players from the team.

Whether Formenton or Batherson are among those 5 is unclear.

Thanks for the update! Liked it for the info, not it's contents.

I didn’t realize he was involved. They would likely just have grounds to terminate the contract… simple as that

First of all, IF anyone gets convicted there's still only a 1/8 chance its Batherson. And the fact that nothing's happened yet more than likely means nothing ever will happen with regards to Batherson.

1. Criminal investigations can take months, if not years, to complete.



2. London police currently have reasonable grounds to charge 5 players and there were 22 players on the 2018 World Junior team.

That means there's a 1 in 4.4 chance it's Batherson.

So, your math is a little off.
