<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheBoyDuddus</b></div><div>I would argue that just the fact that there are so many capitals agm's floating around with Jensen trades speaks to the fact that he's in no way close to equal. At 4.6m Zub is almost a steal considering what he does for the defence which is why you'll almost never see him in a mock trade from a sens fan.

If Jensen was equal or even jut a bit less of a player/value, at 4m for two more years then theres no way Washington would ever consider moving him out when theyre trying to compete with the last years of Ovi.</div></div>

Jensen is being moved to make room for Iorio. Zub isnt being moved bc Sens are dog**** at RSD. Id argue that Ceci would be an upgrade on the side. When you have too much of something and need to open cap space you generational move the older player or did i miss something? Like why would Philly move Walker when he was superior and arguably one of their 3 best overall defenders? Why did La move Durzi? i can go on and on with examples but Washington SHOULD look to move him or TVR to open a spot for a young player looking for a roster spot

Capitals want to compete they need to add significantly to their top 6.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheBoyDuddus</b></div><div>In no world is Jensen better than Zub, THAT's ignorant.

Theres nothing wrong with Dowd, I made that clear, just that he doesnt add value to the deal for Ottawa. Ottawa is littered with middle 6 and bottom 6 forwards, the upgrade he would provide is marginal at best. Makes even less sense when you realise how glaring the holes are elsewhere.

Anderson, Bishop and Lehner was the golden age of Ottawa goaltending. Since then it's been iffy for sure but that doesnt justify giving a 1st and a 3rd for spare parts from Washington.

Even if we ignore the goalie carousel that Ottawa would have to navigate or the fact that theyd likely also have to add assets on top of this trade to move Forsberg or Korpi out, do you really think that Lindgren would be the best option available to them if they were willing to dangle a 1st and 3rd? A 30 year old with one good season under his belt with one year left on his deal and in need of a new contract. Pass.</div></div>

Jensen is at worst equal to Zub but again adding him would make you have 2 2nd pairing Dmen that are good which is better than your current situation lol

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FireShanahanTrelivingKeefe</b></div><div>To sell with that many picks already is just dumb, keep anyone young and worth something.
Only sell if the player happens to be over 30.
The team they had last year tweeked in the right places could make them serious contenders.
They did very well for a team so under cap and with so many worries about the move it could not be easy on team!
I would add more then thread starter siad look how much cap room is left ,go after some studs on forwards or get a true #1 goalie in a trade!
Also and most IMPORTANT why go to a new city that has never had NHL and say HI we are going to rebuild now but please come and be a fan!</div></div>

i dont disagree with you. im saying i heard they wanted to sell

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheBoyDuddus</b></div><div>No offence at all but Dowd carries little to no value in the deal. Lindgren is okay but one year left is not appealing at all, especially after 7 years of doing nothing in the league, one year of mediocre play and one year of good play. Either he kills it in Ottawa and they watch him walk in free agency or theyre on the hook for a big deal to a 31 year old with, at that point, 2/10 years of good play in the league. Not exactly the goaltender I'd be targeting and not what I'd want my first round pick used on.

Jensen is a bottom 4 RD which isnt exactly what Ottawa needs but could be of use especially with Washington retaining 2m for the next 2 years. Helpful but none of that equates to giving up a first even if it is likely a very late one.</div></div>

Dowd immediately makes your bottom 6 better. "carries little to value" is just a ignoranrt statement from someone who obviously hasnt watch him play / is okay w Sens sucking again next year
Lindgren becomes your best goalie..... id argue that Sens haven't made an intelligent goalie signing in a long long time. Lindgren at worst is a fantastic backup.
Jensen might be the Sens best RSD if traded to them lol

Thread: Reinbacher-Demidov or Parekh-Michkov
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>StutzlesNumber1Fan</b></div><div>I dont think theyre far off honestly. I just value the ceiling of Michkov + Parekh over the safe bet on Rein + Demidov. You really could not go wrong with either selection.</div></div>

from what ive watched

Michkov creativity is insane and hes obviously offensively gifted. He's not great away from the puck and cheats on defense to create offense
Demidov is fantastic in tight and plays a better 200ft game even tough i wouldnt say thats a strength of his. great off the wall and can shoot and pass well. Michkov has a sneaky good shot also

Parekh might be a Bouchard but Reinbacher reminds me of a Pietrangelo type. idk who you prefer but Habs has Hutson who is elite. Best player on BU last night
