I'm happy to see the Tyler Myers trade proposals have calmed down a bit at least

@csick what would you ask from the pens for the Cat?

I wonder if a 3 way deal could work.

Pens get Cat

3rd team gets 14th overall, 2nd round pick Pens and Lassi Thomson

Ottawa gets Carter Hart and Scott Laughton (or something similar return from another team)

Realistically, once the dust settles, he's going to cost more than most other fanbases are offering, but less than Ottawa fans are asking and the Ottawa fanbase WILL be a little disappointed in the return.

Interesting idea… we both know pit and phi won’t trade with each other so this is a good way around that

I don’t think I’m asking for much. I just want an immediate cheaper middle 6 replacement and a top 20 draft pick this year .

Something like Dube , Vladar, 16th overall would be okay with me

TBH if Debrincat has no intention of signing you get whatever you can. And if that's the case the CAR deal is my favorite...

No thanks. I’d rather take Turbo back and a pick. This team cannot afford to miss the playoffs next year. Taking the Carolina deal leaves us sucking even worse next year

if they got Ceci as part of a return I think I would puke

Me too

Wings deal would more than likely be the 17oa in this draft rather than the Boston one next year, plus one of the seconds this year

Idk if that makes it more palatable for you guys tho

It’s just not that interesting without a cost controlled middle 6 guy in the deal. The Sens will be worse off if they trade Cat for 17th and a 2nd . That’s basically what Hronek got and I would’ve never have moved Cat for Hronek

Replace Debrincat with a healthy Norris, couple that with a healthy Chychrun all year and the extra money and assets you'd have to go out and maybe get a Hellebyuck(?)...they just may be in a better spot come the end of the year...

Kubalik instead of Zadina, but make the 2nd a 3rd

Okay, now show the good offers

Not sure I've seen an offer like this from Toronto fans, seeing as they can't possibly bring in another 8M winger.

Detroit adds a Detroit Style Pizza to the trade.

The two likely outcomes
1. AD Signs his QO and the senators go for it
2. They trade him and get absolutely crushed on the trade. No team will give significant assets for a player with his contract situation. I’m talking like a late first and maybe a young bottom 6 forward.

That doesn’t move the needle. they’re going to make a summer hockey trade Tkachuk style

17OA+2nd+Kubalik is still a pretty alright deal for Detroit assuming DeBrincat is guaranteed to re-sign here.

Idk if it’s a good deal for ottawa tho . Kubalik walks next year. Cat would be guaranteed to sign a deal in Detroit

And CGY got crushed in the trade

Completely fair, but i wouldn't think Kubalik would be opposed to an extension in Ottawa unless he really wants to sign elsewhere.

That is, ofc, the offered contract is enough for Ottawa's expensive ass housing.

Ha. Welcome to being what is was like for Hawks fans last June!
