Can't see it making sense without Norris's money going out. Need to clear more money to address the back end and goaltending. Liljegren is fine, but if he's meant to be a big top 4 add to the blueline the Sens are cooked. He's a 3rd pair guy who you're comfortable with on the 2nd if there's an injury.
Also hot take (maybe?) But I'd put him with Pinto on the 2nd line. Pinto could really thrive as a goalscorer between G and Marner, and it'd be a monster defensive line too.
Realistically I don't see how it works for Ottawa. Will cost a fortune to acquire, will cost a fortune to extend (assuming he doesn't go the DeBrincat/Chychrun one and done route) and he doesn't show up in the playoffs.
