The 1st trade is maybe in the ballpark for both teams.

The 2nd trade is 2 guys who were on the waiver wire and a 4th.

Ultimately this team needs to drop a salary though (Forsberg, Tarasenko?).

remove chych and ott may consider it

How much for Sogaard?

Cc: @csick

I don’t think they move him unless Nashville wants him for Saros

That's fine because I dont think Nashville considers it regardless.

NSH doesn't remotely consider the deal without Chychrun. NSH already has a number of RW prospects who projecting better than Boucher. Another RW prospect who isn't better than any that NSH already has and a late 1st isn't remotely enough for Saros.

chych has more value alone than saros, so NSH would need to add

You're right, second trade sucks, was just kinda messing around, would more so be the two trades combined into one. Was going to get rid of Forsberg but don't have the assets to get another goalie and had already bought out Korpisalo/don't think Sogaard's ready

No he doesn't

I could see him being moved, especially in a deal for a bonafide starter. Also, same csick from twitter???

I would heavily disagree with that. Chychrun is really good and is a top 4 d-man, but he does not have more value than Saros, who while having a bad season is still a top 5 goalie in league on an incredibly friendly contract through next year. To say that Chychrun has more value than Saros is undervaluing Saros.

What do you think would have to be included for Nashville to consider?

NSH is looking for someone who can be a top 6 forward (center, LW, RW - Priority in that order) or a top pair RD as the main part of the return for Saros. Either those or a way to acquire one of those. An ideal trade for NSH with OTT would be more quality than quantity. Something like either of these would probably do it.
1. To OTT: Saros retained at 50% To NSH: BOS 2024 1st (Currently projected as 31OA) and Norris
2. To OTT: Saros To NSH: OTT 2024 1st (currently projected as 7OA - Schneider trade is the comparable that got 9OA)

There are other things to consider on both sides, but that would be a top offer for Saros

EDIT: I realize that these are likely really optimistic, but like I said, these are ideal for NSH

Yes that’s me

I would do the Norris trade one only because I think the Sens should keep their own 1st to draft a RD as high as possible

Exactly what I thought, no way we can trade our first rounder again this year. I like the Norris one, wonder if they would add like a Yakov Trenin or Alex Carrier, would probably have to send something extra back

dont mater if he is the #1 G in the league, G are a fraction of the value than the other positions. no G in the league is worth a top 6 or top 4 player, or a top 25 pick

Between the two of those, I would throw Trenin into that deal
