Offensively, yes. Defensively... questionable. Great first pass and breakout though! Makes some interesting decisions with the puck too. Him and Chychrun look a little lost in the d-zone 70% of the time.

The Ducks, defensively, have been horrific for the past 3 seasons because the entire team has been horrific for the passed 3 seasons... -45 doesn't mean a whole lot when your best defenseman has been *checks notes* Cam Fowler.

Zegras will get a substantial return if Verbeek decides to trade him.
It may not be as high as what Ducks fans on CFACGM believe.
But it certainly won't be as low as what non Ducks fans on CFACGM believe.
It'll be closer however to what Ducks fans think in my opinion.
There seems to be a prevailing trend on CFACGM.
Trash the player you want to acquire thus lowering his value so you can justify a lowball offer.
Then place him on your number 1 line, number 1 D pair or number 1 goalie.
Funny how that works.
The player sucks and I'll give up nothing because reasons. 🤔
But as soon as he's on my team he's good again. 😁</div></div>

The odds of either Brisebois or the 6th round pick ever having any positive effect on the Sens is less than 5% whereas the odds of Kastelic having a positive effect on the Sens is probably around 70%.</div></div>
I also feel Kastelic is not 100% from his last injury. He looks like he's lost a step since coming back.

I had no idea who Louis Crevier, figured nothing special... 6'8"!?!?? How's his foot speed for the big man? He filling out right or is it just big d-man tall situation?
But yeah, VAN would need to pay, or it'll be a very late pick coming back to them. I like Kuzmenko and think he needs a change of scenery, but 5.5 is tough to swallow for another year for any team. I can absolutely see CHI winning this scenario anyway you look at it. Kuzmenko returns to form next year? Recoup the assets you lost at the TDL... Kuzmenko doesn't pan out? Oh well, you got some assets to take on his contract.

An AGM featuring everybody linked to Ottawa by Trade Watch List 2024
The Tanev thing is confusing for me. Don't get me wrong, I like the player, just a lot of uncertainty a couple (if not less than a couple) of years down the road.
Trading Chychrun is certainly a choice...
Writing on the wall for Senko unfortunately. I'd like to extend him, but with the way Ottawa has been playing of late, just walk him out the door, take the 1st and say thanks.
Beggren? Nice. Could be a good add but one would think it'd cost more than a 4th unless it's a placeholder?

Take what LM says with a grain of salt. He has an "in" (AKA he golfs with someone from the Sens organization), but has been <strong>very</strong> wrong in the past and instead apologizing, doubled down on the rumour and lost a lot of his credibility doing so.

Treliving Targets
Regardless of the "base of the trade", you're not getting arguably Ottawa's best LHD for a depth piece and a worse goaltender than their current group as the bones of the trade....
Chychrun starts with what Toronto doesn't have (or doesn't want to trade) in a stable RHD (Timmy Liljegren) and picks.

I still preach patience. Sell Senko, Kubalik, Brann for something. Trade Forsberg in the off season for extra cap space. Sign some depth.
This team will have no issues scoring. They just need to learn something about how not to be stupid.

Flyers fans what is the price on Konecny
A lot of "wishful thinking" here. Lots moving but no value being given.
Whilst still young, Thomson was put on waivers, claimed by ANA and subsequently put back on waivers and claimed by OTT again in the span of 48 hours. Not a great look. It also doesn't help that he is still completely lost in the D-zone in Belleville. Offensively he's fine, great shot from the point and good first pass but everything else leaves much to be desired.
Boucher just played his first couple of games after a "groin tweak". He looks okay but still hasn't shown he can be an NHL player. I like his physicality and can understand where the interest comes from on Philly's end, I just can't see them asking for him just because of nepotism.
Jarventie has all the attributes of a solid NHL player in the making. Big, fast and can shoot. Plays all three positions. Downside is he hasn't yet discovered how big he is and has yet to develop "man strength". Didn't do a whole lot when he was called up near the beginning of the year. A work in progress that draws little interest when being traded for a legit top 6 winger.
Kubalik, Brannstrom and MacEwan are all roster throw ins that do little to move the needle to replace what the flyers are losing short and long term. The two first round picks are likely in the mid to high 20's considering Detroit's 1st will be replaced by Boston's first and NYR's first is going to be close to it. Nice to have but you aren't getting anything that'll help your franchise immediately.
You also have to take into consideration that Philly, whilst technically moving towards a rebuild, is in a playoff spot. They really don't need to trade Konecny thus bringing his value even higher.
Personally, I would love Konecny to come back to Ottawa where he played his junior years. One of my favorites growing up. But, the value is non-existent here for the flyers to consider.

Coming to Washingtons rescue
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>brady_t12</b></div><div>In a vacuum the value is somewhat close but I think the caps would be foolish to move their first rounder right now. A 2025 second and 2024 mid-late pick for those two combined would be closer in value I think.
That being said, the caps have such an insane logjam on their roster that they need to move some bodies out before even considering bringing anyone in. They are in a weird position of having plenty of cap space and not even close to enough roster space, on top of the fact that they do need to add a legit top 6 scoring threat.</div></div>
I imagine a few roster players would need to be included in the deal to not only alleviate some cap space but alleviate some roster spots. Malestyn and/or Dowd come to mind.

Sens should be willing to move Chychrun or Tkachuk for the right haul
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>I’ve come to the conclusion that to fix their flaws they have to move :
One of Tkachuk or Batherson (defence isn’t there)
One of Chabot or Chychrun (too many puck movers)
Brannstrom , Kubalik, Tarasenko (no future here)
The 2 I listed are the most likely to get us a huge haul to send us into a nice 2 year rebuild and have a prospect pool ready to come in hard in 2 years</div></div>
1. You can still teach these guys a system and D. You don't trade your best forwards for defence. Considering they still haven't gotten a proper coaching staff or system behind them. You also don't trade the guy who will go into battle and drag the crew with him or the guy with the best valued contract right now.
2. Chychrun and Chabot are fine when healthy. The best defence is to always have the puck and great first pass. These guys give you that. Stop attaching anchors to them in Hamonic/Zaitsev...
3. That's an obvious. These guys were never part of the solution long term. Trade them and recoup some assets to either restock the cupboards or acquire the right guys.
There are some issues with this team <strong>right now</strong>. But a knee jerk reaction in trading your most skilled guys is asinine when:
A) They haven't been coached properly in 6 years (goes for both forwards and defence).
B) They haven't played with proper partners in 6 years (defence).

I'm still on the patience train. Give JM and Alfie some time on these guys. Bath is popping off. The last stink from the Melnyk era is washing off. I know 6 years is a long time to wait. But the pieces are there... get a new GM, trim the fat, get a stable coach, get Alfie to player development and JM back in the advisory role... I'm hopeful. But I understand the issue with waiting again.

In regards to the Chychrun trade: ARZ wasn't interested in taking back any salary in the deal. TOR didn't have the cap space for Chychrun at the time. ARZ wanted picks/prospects in the deal. Hence why Ottawa got the player over anyone else.
