Thread: Draft Day Trade for RFAs
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bulldog92</b></div><div>Sure, Adams is looking to move Olofsson but I don't believe that he needs to attach picks, especially first rounders, to find him a new home.

Not certain that Brannstrom is the answer to who needs to be paired with Power.

A better trade might just be Olofsson and Comrie (OTT doesn't have a goalie signed for 2023) for Debrincat. OTT has to fill 12 roster spots with only $17M so they are going to have to get creative.</div></div>

Ottawa has Forsberg and Soggard signed to play nets. Think you forgot to take into consideration that Norris cap hit is taken into account in Capfriendly but he is not included as a roster/‘d player. They also have 7 RFA’s who should sign relatively cheap , lets say max 8.5 total. They also have Grieg , Javentie, Thomson, Kleven making under a million and on the non roster list. They have room , not a lot but they can make it work.

Thread: Idea
Brannstrom is not the type of player Ottawa thought they were getting when they acquired him. He was seen as an offensive d man capable of QB’ing a p.p. He ( or the team ) finally came to the conclusion that he needs to play a simple stay at home style of play. Make a first pass vs. skating it out of the D zone. He is a bottom pair guy but can move up in the order if needed. He plays both sides, i actually think he plays better on the right side but coach Smith disagrees. He is a decent shot blocker but can get knocked off the puck by larger players. Face facts if you get a 6’3” forward screening your goalie there is not much he is going to be able to do. He has accepted playing how he needs to to contribute to the team. Have to admit it he has grown on me , I would not do this deal.
