Thread: Young forward
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Riddick19</b></div><div>This is for the 25-26 season.... So this is based on Ottawa ****ting the bed again next season and Brady asking for a trade.... Ottawa if they move Brady, means they are basically doing a 2nd rebuild albeit not a total rebuild. Anderson would be off the table.... Do remember Ottawa isn't going to trade Brady down the road to one of our biggest rivals for what would appear fair trade. Ottawa will want Mtl to overpay if we have to battle Tkachuk 4 times a season and then possibly in the playoff down the road.

It would have to be more along the lines of Guhle, 25 1st, CGY 25 1st, and likely Mesar.... That might get a deal done if Brady asks for a trade. I know it sounds like a lot but Ottawa won't be giving Brady for what fans think is "fair"... Could you imagine the bidding war for the guy? PPG power forward who fights with anyone, always top 5 in hits, and shots... leadership.... Teams would be lining up around the block for him.</div></div>

Ohh man I didn't see it was 25-26 lol. I'd imagine teams like Buffalo, Detroit, Columbus, St Louis, NJD etc would all offer and best any Montreal trade anyway lol.

Thread: Would Calgary do this
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Assuming that Robin Lehner stays on the LTIR list, the Golden Knights have about $6.5 million to allot among 4 roster slots. (Already under contract for next season: ten forwards, $45 million; seven defensemen, $30.2 million: two goalies, $5.7 million.) They can afford to give their one important RFA (Pavel Dorofeyev) a significant raise and fill the other three forward openings with $1 million AAV guys without having to dump a cheap young defenseman with term who has sufficient quality to play #1 RD for you.</div></div>

I second this, but I heard a rumour that Lehner will be ready to play next season. Complicates things a bit but not where they have to give away cheap young players on good deals for.

Thread: Ottawa Overhaul
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Riddick19</b></div><div>Sanderson isn't an offensive defenseman....He's more of a defensive guy. Doesn't think the game offensively all that well. Defensively though he's great with his positioning and being able to use his feet. Brodin doesn't help our PP at all which needs to improve if we're to get better. Vegas (Pietrangelo), Col (Makar), TB (Hedman/Sergachev), Pit (Letang)..... See the pattern? You need a go-to offensive defenseman. Sanderson maxes out at 50 points. As it is we don't really have a top end offensive defenseman. Just outside of Zub we don't really have any good defenseman defensively either....</div></div>

Actually that does make sense, but I do really like what Sanderson brings offensively. I think we can still use Chabot to quarterback the power play, but I think what Brodin brings is stabilazies our defense 5 on 5 and on the PK which hasn't been great at times. Sanderson is what i'd tier as a 2 way defender, but I do, like I said, think he brings some good offense as well. I think using Chabot less 5 on 5 and more for the power play could be a good move, if we where to bring in a more defensive defender this off season. However I do really like some of the points you make.
