Thread: Realistic Roster Next Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sr_Advisor_Hockey_Ops</b></div><div>So, Melnyk and Co. will not pay for another Top 6 W, but they will keep Colin White ($4.75m) and add Andrew Ladd and Nick Ritchie (combined $8m for a scratch and a fourth line winger)?</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensibleguy</b></div><div>You post "realistic" and then include this trade idea

OTT
Ladd, Andrew
Ritchie, Nick
ARI
Zaitsev, Nikita
Watson, Austin
2022 3rd round pick (OTT)

Two dumps for Ottawa's grit AND a 3rd, yeah that's realistic, lol</div></div>
A bit unfair to OP

Money OUT for 2022-23 : 6.0
Money IN for 2022-23 : 7.3

Money OUT for 2023-24 : 6.0
Money IN for 2022-23 : 0.0 (2 roster spots to fill)

This is to get rid of Zaitsev's last contract year.

Thread: Seeling at the Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>InTreWeTrust</b></div><div>So the equivalent of 2 1sts and a 2nd for Brown - and I thought the Habs fans were delusional on this site</div></div>

The 2nd is for Paul but a 1st and a prospect is delusional for Brown? He scored at over a 50 point pace last year and is scoring at almost a 60 point pace this year. Plays pp and is one of the best pkers in the league. Trading him at 50% retention with two years left leaves him with the exact same situation that Blake Coleman was traded under. Both with an extra year left on their deals at 1.8m against the cap. Coleman went for a 1st round prospect from the year before the trade (Foote) and a 1st. I'd argue that Brown is better than Coleman so why should the ask be any less?

Thread: Give Brown a real shot
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>yikes</b></div><div>I dont think Brown deserves 2C time especially sending down Pinto (which is a bad idea imo). Pinto earned a fair shake in the NHL with his play last season. Brown at most should be given 3C which is what I think they should do or just trade him.</div></div>

Training camp decides those things

It's up to Logan Brown. He has to show he really wants it then figure out how to stay healthy. I don't think he'll be with the Sens long term as he's not their "type" of players (which has changed since the rebuild) but as a Sens fan I hope they will put him in a position to succeed and rebuild his trade value.

Pinto isn't going anywhere, he's still just 20 y/o and if he plays a stretch in the AHL that won't hurt him (although I think he doesn't really need it), but if Brown shows he's committed and has worked his butt off, I'm giving him the 2 most skilled wingers so he can play is high difficulty passing game.


Tkachuk-Norris-White
Stutzle-Brown-Batherson
Formenton-Pinto-Brown
Paul-Tierney-Watson


If White doesn't play well enough, move Connor Brown in his place.
