Unlikely to happen but interesting

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Unlikely to see 2 teams trading 2 young guys that they have drafted and developed, unless they'd struggle, but this is not the case here with Peterka and Pinto (and that's before talking about trading inside the division)

Just saw a Sabres fan saying :

"There is a chance that some of our talented young forwards could be made available for- a two way center, any actual hockey players that play physical, a top 4 right shot d, or an above average veteran goalie"

Pinto will be an excellent 2-way center, Sens "could" afford to trade him as they have Greig (who is even better IMO)

MacEwen is cheap, skates well and is physical. If he plays with 2 good 4th liners, could be efficient

Thomson has all the tools but lacks poise and confidence. If you have a great sports psychologist, you can turn him into a pretty decent NHL player.

Peterka to play him with Stutzle and the Sens need at F seems to be on RW in the future (Peterka could play LW this season, then RW after that)

Rousek is a specific target for Belleville

4th line is not great but that Top-9 would play a lot anyway.

On defense, I split the big 3 but it is to have one of them on the ice at all times. And F*** it, I am giving Chabot a reliable D-man defensively

Dorion is gone, DJ Smith is under my orders now. I am starting to fix this **** up (well, actually I would change the coaching staff first)
