Thread: Cuppa Trades

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>OldNYIfan</b></div><div>Four out of the five defensemen Philly has under team control for next season are left-handed and three of them can purportedly play the right side, so I don't see a building team like the Flyers investing significant assets in an expensive lame duck Chychrun. There will probably be multiple teams that offer Ottawa a first and a second (or the equivalent) for Chychrun, but I'd be willing to bet Philadelphia isn't one of them.</div></div>

I believe Philly will make an offer that involves swapping Chyrchun and Laughton with some of other stuff thrown in. I also believe both GMs would be interested in it and every fan on here will throw a fit and cry about me saying it cause they hate Laughton.

I don’t think that will end up getting Chychrun I believe that will be Philly’s offer to Ottawa.

Thread: More Veteran Leadership

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sens_Sicko</b></div><div>I agree, just afraid what it'll cost us for a 2nd pair RD. Moving Chych will be addition by subtraction defensively, and Branny mainly gets exposed on the PK; his +/- is one of the best on the team. Really think Kleven will be solid back there as well.

Would be super happy to land a Demelo or Roy, but practically every team is looking for a top RD.</div></div>

Sucks we're Ottawa and we have to overpay someone to come but we are really desperate to get Chabot a long term partner. Just do what has to be done to get one of Pesce, Roy, Demelo, Montour etc. Cap is going up so in the long run it shouldn't hurt to overpay one. Branny can drop to Klevens partner and we run JBD as our 7th defenseman. Goaltending would look better behind a stable and solid group of defense too.

That offense has enough fire power to win games, just need the defense to keep us in them.

Thread: More Veteran Leadership

Personally just not a fan of the defense still. That has to be the biggest goal of the off season to fix, without that we are going to be picking top 5 next season.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>athrin</b></div><div>he is a top 4 D in his prime, and OTT underpaid for him 2 years ago...short memory you got uh. a late first and a guy whos value is most likely barely a 2nd don't get a team a top 4 D in his prime.</div></div>

Ottawa didn't underpay for him, that was the rate that the market bared, and the reason the market rate was that was because he had a fair amount of time left on his sweetheart deal, now he doesn't. He's also got a major history of injuries and outside of one awesome season, is just a regular top 4 D production wise.

Left shot top 4 D are not that hard to come by, if he was right shot you would have an argument.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>athrin</b></div><div>OTT is not trading any of their remaining G prospects and that dont get chych.</div></div>

Why doesn't it, exactly? A large portion of his value was his team friendly contract during cap crunched years, with the cap jumping and only a season left until UFA status, and coughing up the puck twice as often this season as any time in his career, who's giving up a haul for him?

Thread: Hot Staios Summer

I don't mind any of this.

Unfortunately, that's probably all we're gonna get for Chychrun but if they could swap Wahlstrom for a better prospect I'd be much more inclined to do that trade.

Thread: Hot Staios Summer

Sens are going to have to overpay for Matt Roy to come here. You're looking at more money and more term.

Thread: Hot Staios Summer

We could prob get Demelo for that Roy deal, and I'd imagine Roy would want like 6.5 for 6 years to come to Canada.

The rest I don't mind tho.

:laugh No one is touching Josh Norris man, He has 3 busted shoulders and making nearly $8,000,000 per for the next 6 seasons. He'll be lucky to finish out that contract if these injuries continue to mount up.

Thread: Would this work

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sens_Sicko</b></div><div>Not even close bro, that might get you Drake Batherson</div></div>

Fair enough figured I was being too greedy wanting Tkachuk for Hronek. Not sure if Hronek wants too much (IMO he shouldn't get more than 7.5m) was thinking this would get what each team needs a powerforward to play with Petey (and in the future probably Lekkerimaki as well) while getting Ottawa a top pairing Right shot Defense while giving Arizona a Top pairing D for something they're going to have an overabundance of soon (having Geekie and Guenther on the way). But I'm not sure Batherson would fit what
Vancouver wants but would be something to consider.

Thread: What would it cost for Parayko

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sens_Sicko</b></div><div>That's what I thought, but I keep hearing rumours around them listening to calls from Calgary on him.. great player.</div></div>

Blues have a similar problem as the sens (Both need to clear out LD) but for different reasons.

Parayko is our only truly good defenseman and while I'm not going to act like there aren't concerns about his contract, I am willing to except his aging since we need him.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 1 at 3:52 p.m.

Thread: What would it cost for Parayko

First I doubt Parayko is available. Our goal and it seems like it's the front offices as well is to build around Parayko which means shipping out the other contracts. If by chance we are trading Parayko it would signal a full rebuild/teardown. Doubt Chychrun would be of interest as he only has 2 years and would be looking for another massive contract if we were to trade Parayko.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 1 at 3:44 p.m.

Thread: What would it cost for Parayko

St Louis has several aging D on long contracts. I would be all over this if I were them. I know Mokumbo would highly disagree with me though. He loves Parayko.

Forum: Armchair-GMFeb. 1 at 3:40 p.m.

Thread: What would it cost for Parayko

I mean he is a good player but given the $, term, and cost it would take to get Parayko i dont think it makes sense for Ottawa. We could use a defensive minded player like parayko sure, but I think we could get one cheaper that might fit the timeline better

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Theo_nollaf</b></div><div>I hate to hate, but absolutely nothing about what Brannstrom has done since coming to Ottawa has made him worth a 2nd. Throw in the fact that Ottawa is cap strapped and clearly does not like him, and offloading him for a 4th is pretty solid value in my opinion.</div></div>
A 4th round pick rarely ever crush a 3rd pairing in his 23 y/o season

He has also averaged 24 pts per 82 games since his 21 y/o season, from a 3rd pairing, without much reliance on PP pts

Sens need him for now so keep him instead of getting a low probability pick
