ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Forum: Armchair-GM22 hours ago

Thread: OTT fans thoughts

I like the Boston deal. Two weeks ago it was unrealistic but now Backes would absolutely waive his NTC to come to Ottawa. It's better to be the veteran on a young rising NHL team for a year than to sit in the AHL waiting for a call up that isn't coming.

Thread: can Bobby Ryan turn it around

You should probably just add Tkachuk and Chabot to the trade, you know, just to make it super clear you're drunk.

Thread: VGK-PIT-OTT-NYR

Ottawa has no need for a LHD who is UFA in July. How about Kaedan Korczak and Jack Dugan for Dylan Demelo and Chris Tierney.

Thread: Hate doing it but its realistic

I honestly feel like this is a big overpayment. Marleau and Thornton might help you in the actual SCF against a team like the Blues, but I think they'd actually hurt you on the road to the ECF against teams like Tampa, Florida, and Toronto.

Thread: Looking to the Future

This team doesn't get you to the floor but even if it did they would certainly be picking in the 1-3 spot again in 2021. That's not the worst thing...

Thread: Making Sens of this goddamn team

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SammyT_51</b></div><div>Im not saying its great contract tho. Its a pretty damn good deal for mid-6 winger. He is better player than Brown and with increased role in Ottawa he would thrive.</div></div>

He had a great season in 18-19 but Connor Brown also had 20 goals for the Leafs when he got to play with Matthews. Hell, even Chiasson put in 22 when he got to play with McDavid, but Edmonton knew better than to throw $3M and a MNTC at him. I'm sorry, I just think Johnsson's production plummets as soon as he lines up with NON-elite players, which is kind of what we're seeing now.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SammyT_51</b></div><div>LMAO ridiculous contract? 3.4M for mid-6 40-50 pt winger is ridiculous contract LMAO</div></div>

Johnson is CURRENTLY on pace for UNDER 40 points this year, and has 6 goals in 34 games. Connor Brown however is on pace for 52 points and is making $1.3M less with no clauses on his contract. Duclair has 29 goals for Ottawa over his 68 games and is making $1.65M. So yes, that Johnson contract is ridiculous, especially for a team up against the cap like Toronto AND for a team like Ottawa that has so many young LW ready to make the leap to the NHL. But hey... if it's a great contract... you should keep it!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PLDGEY</b></div><div>Ottawa declines very quickly.

Swap the 2021 3rd for a 2020 2nd and we have a deal.</div></div>

OTTAWA SHOULD STILL SAY NO TO THAT. They can get 2nd rounder for Demelo alone. Andreas Johnson is a 7th round pick with one good season. Toronto gave him a ridiculous contract the includes bonuses AND a MNTC in it's fiinal year. YIKES. No thanks. Ottawa has left wingers that are ready for NHL duty: Abramov, Formenton, OR we could keep Ennis for a third of what Johnson is making.

Thread: Goddamn it

I'm just going to be happy for Mark Stone. Ottawa was never going to give him that money, that term and FOR SURE never those signing bonuses. He's a great leader and has so much joy for the game, I'm happy he got away from Melnyk.

Thread: SJ 20-21

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Green4D4Again</b></div><div>To add to TCMonkey, hopefully DeMelo is a mainstay in Ottawa for a while. I'm hoping they offer him a competitive contract. Great chemistry with Chabot/Borowiecki.

The next thing is Jones. Ottawa will have no interest in Jones with both Nilsson and Hogberg looking like our 1-2 for next year. It's also a really bad contract to take on so you'd have to offer a little more than what is here. Maybe take out the 3rd going the other way?</div></div>

OMG, I didn't even scroll that far down. The idea that ANYONE would take the Jones contract on just to get a B level prospect and a 2nd is crazy, let alone give back TWO PICKS. Yikes. Honestly, unless it's a team that's willing to buy him out and are getting back a 1st or Meier or dumping an equally bad contract the other way.. not happening.

Thread: Deadline Possibilities

I'm sure Ottawa will get a more attractive offer for Pageau. That being said, I find Ruzicka to be an interesting prospect. If his speed can be improved even just a little he could be a legit top 6 winger, and I suppose Ottawa could try to flip Jankowski although with struggles he's having the return would be late rounder or B level prospect at best. If the 3rd were a 2nd it would likely make it to the consideration pile, but as is... doubtful.

Forum: Armchair-GMJan 16 at 6:41

Thread: SJ 20-21

Dylan Demelo is going to get much much much better offers than that. Even if you doubled the money he'd still say NO based on the term.

Inflated numbers or not, this is not a good offer. Plus that some teams won't care - they'll just want him for this year. Hot stick. Can play up and down the line up and is a first unit PK pivot. That's a HUGE add for a playoff run.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>I more meant because they could flip him for something more meaningful at the deadline, but keeping him works too if it's in their best interests</div></div>

He has another year under contract so I wouldn't be shocked to see Ottawa keep him and move Anderson. That being said Hogberg has been playing well so who knows...

Forum: Armchair-GMJan 14 at 6:55

Thread: GOALTENDING

I could see Ottawa jumping on that. Having Nilsson and Mrazek as a duo for next season gives them another year to sort out their future goaltending.

Thread: Worst Case Ontario

This wouldn't get you Craig Anderson as a rental and it sure as hell isn't getting you Nilsson.

Forum: Armchair-GMJan 14 at 1:39

Thread: Goaltending Solved

Pageau is going to be one of the most coveted forward rentals at the deadline, IF Ottawa moves him it will be a better return than this.

Forum: Armchair-GMJan 14 at 10:23

Thread: Addressing the needs without injuries

I think that OTTAWA trade works well. They'll need to take on some salary to stay about the floor with so many players likely being traded away at the deadline.

This ONLY happens if they can't make a contract work with DeMelo though, because he's probably a piece they'd like to keep if they can.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>slapshot723</b></div><div>Yeah, I'd think about a deal like that. I just think those guys are good depth. Other deals would need to be made by NYI, but I like both of these players for the makeup of NYI.</div></div>

I think Pageau would be an incredibly good fit too but I understand that he is likely going to cost more than you guys want to be giving up as such a young team. It makes sense to let the teams taking their last shot overpay. HOPING THEY WILL!

YES. I could see Ottawa taking that deal.

Thread: NSH OTT Trade Deadline

This will sound like I'm a homer but I'm really not: Ottawa would get a better return trading Borowiecki and Ennis separately to different teams. Straight up 3rd for Ennis and a 4th for Borowiecki. I'd rather see them do that. Ho-Sang is another Curtis Lazar. Wins some you lose some.

Wow that offer for Dulcair is brutal. Ottawa hangs up on you immediately.
