What to do Checklist

Created by: Rafa676
Team: 2024-25 Ottawa Senators
Initial Creation Date: Feb. 27, 2024
Published: Feb. 27, 2024
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
Things the Sens must do to get to playoffs:

1- Sell Chychrun before he loses value. I really like the guy but unfortunately, is not the player we need right now

2- Replace Tarasenko. Its the kind of pro we need, +/- its not much of a stat but with so much goals allowed, he proved hes more than just a shooter.

3- Get a proper goalie. No explanation needed....

4- Get rid of Korpisalo. Buyout if necessary or trade somewhere else without losing high picks

5- Sign a Top4 RHD. A player who can extract the best game out of Chabot. Tanev maybe, correct me if im wrong

6- Improve Bottom line

7- Change , PLEASE, the PK system. Pacioretys PP goal looked like he had a red carpet to the back of the net.

Pipedream
8- Get Konecny at TDL 25

    Chychrun gets more
    And Nashville could easily get more if they eating 50%
    Don't understand the Branstrom. Arizona would want a pick not a project

    I'd seriously consider that Chychrun trade, but I'm unsure if it's actually good. I'm a huge Marchment guy, and I'm way too invested to be objective about Gavin White. Literally bought his dad a beer when he got drafted.

    I LOVE #8…huge TK fan. Have been saying for some time that the Sens should go after him. He’d fit perfectly into what they need, but with how well the Flyers are doing and TK, I don’t see them trading him. Actually read Flyers talking contract extension for him.

    I think the underlying problem with this team is the top forwards don't work hard in all 200 feet. There's some games where you can't even tell they played. There definitely needs to be some sort of shake up in the forward core. A team with this top 9 should be more successful than they currently are. Goaltending is clearly an issue, defense looks good on paper, makes me wonder if the defense is similar to the offense, just inconsistent and doesn't work hard enough.

    Sometimes too much talent is an issue. Playing together as a team is the main goal and by doing that some players may have to change the way they play…which can cause some issues. I agree, they need to shake things up with the core. It’s been long enough as far as playing together. For whatever reason, it’s not clicking like it should. You see it every so often but not consistently.
