Thread: Meh Draft but still stacked prospect pool

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>I think people wrongly assume that the Sens are planning to still be rebuilding next season like they were this year. They're expecting forward momentum, and maybe they think they will be improved enough to where they don't think they're likely to have a chance at a Dman as good as who they could have 5th overall.</div></div>

Wouldn't rush a rebuild. <strong>IF</strong> Ottawa's prospects all make the jump, then maybe we can expect an improvement in the standings... There are also huuuuuge maybes next year with everything going on off the ice...

That being said, why not pick Wallinder with 28 and Grelge at 35?

Thread: Meh Draft but still stacked prospect pool

The only issue I have with drafting a D with the 1st round picks Dorion has is that Ottawa really doesn't look like they will compete next year... why not acquire 1st round picks next year in a D heavy draft? Lambos, Clarke, Hughes, Power, Chaykka and Ceulemans to name a few.

Thread: Meh Draft but still stacked prospect pool

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>I agree wholeheartedly about needing to get a top pivot, but Dorion has already more or less confirmed the they're taking whoever's left of Byfield and Stutzle, and I think both guys will be "1C on a contender" good. That alone gets the Sens a passing grade for this draft, so they can do what they'd like as far as I'm concerned.</div></div>

If all turns to garbage, then we have Shane Wright to look forward to in 2022.

Nitpicking picks, haha! You're right, though.

Thread: Meh Draft but still stacked prospect pool

I'd be upset but not surprised if they left Raymond or Perffeti off the board. Our LHD prospect pool is rather shallow and that fabled "two-way" defender is always nice to have. It alleviates Chabot's work load ever so slightly.

I thought Ottawa was high on Forester, no?

Gave me a chuckle. I think Dorion is playing the long-con. I won't be upset at #3 cause Stutzle or Byfield is a win/win. I won't be surprised by Sanderson either because he's got Dorion draft pick written all over him. My heart and mind say Raymond at 5. Quinn is a reach at 5 but after watching 67's games all year, I'm not surprised to see his draft status sky rocket. I'll give up being a Sens fan if Askarov is chosen at 5.

Thread: Apparently the Goat is coming back

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Ryan Murray is the type of player I would target, but with him only on a 1 year deal it wouldn't make sense, unless he would be signing a really favorable contract for the team. They need someone who can play with that level of defensive poise though.

Looking at guys who would make sense longer term, I think Nikita Zadorov and Marcus Pettersson would be two options who could be available, especially if Pittsburgh ends up getting Matheson after all. My two pipe dream options would be Jake Chychrun or Brandon Carlo, but I don't see either of those happening.</div></div>

I'd like Cernak myself.

Thread: Apparently the Goat is coming back

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>id have preferred Braun for 1 year over Hainsey. I still think theres a trade coming in the next year for a long term top 6F or top 4D man. They also said they might trade some 2nd rounders to poach players from cap straddled teams. I just hope their solutions arent Ryan Murray, Olli Maata or Erik Gudbranson loool</div></div>

Don't you put that evil on me Ricky Bobby!

Again, why not give some young guys some shots. Jaros is always my pick. I just think there is something there with him. That leaves Zaitsev, Zub and Brannstrom (LHD) on the right side... Zub will partner with Chabot and Zaitsev with either Rielly or Wolanin… so that leaves... if he comes back... Hainsey with Rielly. Hainsey with Brann the broken? I have no idea what this roster is going to look like. October 9th can't come fast enough.

I think Andersen is worth a 1st if he came with an extension. The market for goalies is all over the place right now. Murray, Markstrom, Lehner (even though he's officially-unofficially signed), Korpisalo, Gerogiev, Talbot, Smith... who knows.

Also, I'm hoping for a Shark comeback. Karlsson will have fully rested his body and he will return to form.

I think Cobra is worth at least a 2nd and a prospect. Guy is 25 and put up 40 pts without PP time on a terrible Ottawa team.

Morgan Rielly's best D partner. Prove me wrong.

Thread: OTT would you do this

I'd be down if we miss out on Byfield at #3 and pick Stutzle. Strome is a guy I think would fit nicely on a 1-2 switcheroo centre tandem. Specially if Logan Brown doesn't pan out next year.

You are right in Tierney being a true #3C and a #2C in a pinch. He could cost upward to 3.5 to 4. Guy put up 40 pts (almost) without PP time on a terrible Ottawa team.

You are also right in that Ottawa is looking to poach a young, NHL ready, forward. I like the deal, personally.

Thread: The only way the Leafs sign Pietrangelo

Guy on an ELC for 3 years (possibly) for a guy who has a wicked signing bonus? Melnyk would fire Dorion on the spot.

Forum: Armchair-GMSep 19 at 11:24

Thread: Pietra come on down

Ottawa says no way. It'd be going backwards in a rebuild. Ottawa would be basically paying a future elite center and a future cornerstone RH defense-man (who will both be on Entry-level deals and affordable so your logic of Melnyk being cheap is... flawed), for 5 years of Marner, 1 year of Freddie and a guy who hasn't cracked the NHL yet. The other thing is Gaborik's contract is insured so Melnyk basically pays a small percentage of his contract.

My offer for your cap troubles? Johnson, Holl and a 3rd for Balcers, Jaros and a 6th. Boom, two guys that make a combined 6.4 on the cap for two guys that you can sign to cheap 2 way deals that have NHL experience.

Or, alternatively: Batherson, Thompson and NYI 1st for Nylander straight up.

Thread: Senators Draft Targets and Team in a Few Years

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeterChiarelli</b></div><div>That's my question though: if the target really is Byfield because of his projection, how much should the Sens look at paying to move up? I highly doubt the Kings are going to let him slide to #3 unless they're paid to do so.</div></div>

If Ottawa goes Stutzle-Raymond due to Byfield being drafted by L.A, the plan will be to work on Brown-Norris-White as 1-2-3C. It's either that or we target a potential #1 C via trade. As <a href="/users/Alfie11" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@Alfie11</a> has stated, we have so many picks/prospects Ottawa could use to poach young players from other teams due to them not being able to afford. The top 2 lines becomes Tkachuk-Norris-Batherson/Stutzle-Brown-Raymond (hopefully). I still think Ottawa finishes in bottom 10 next year. Lambos/Clarke will be a much needed on the blueline if Ottawa wins a top 3. To answer your question: it's a win-win regardless for both L.A. and Ottawa.

If Byfield falls into Ottawa's hands, Brown is shifted to the wing or moved for a positional need.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>meh im not really a fan of Sanderson just because the top 10 next year has a few elite dmen. So take 2 forwards this year and a Dman next year</div></div>

Of course. I'm saying the same thing. Raymond and Byfield if available. I just think Sanderson isn't the worst option at 5. Its a better option than Drysdale, IMO.

I'm really not sold on Rossi. I think it'd be a mistake if they take him at 5. Perfetti has grown on me. But I think Detroit has a him at 4.

Thread: The situation

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ThatGuy</b></div><div>You got sanderson over Drysdale?</div></div>

Yes. But, I have Raymond over Sanderson. Sanderson can jump right into an NHL game and not look out of place. Drysdale will take a year or two to start looking like an NHL defenseman. Sanderson reminds me a lot of Suter in his prime. Just an minute muncher and super safe, LHD. With Boro gone, I think the #5-6 LHD spot is either Sanderson or Wolanin.

Alleged. Nothing concret but there was a degree of separation between the hockey wives and her. Its all complicated and strange. Didn't help that Ottawa was the centre of BS for almost all of that season. That report was just the cherry on top.
