Ottawa accepts.

I just don't see it making sense. Ottawa needs a centre like Stutzle or Byfield most importantly anyway. They'd be better off just drafting on of them, and keeping the other pick.

Very much assuming that EDM takes the pick.

Yeah that's a good deal, don't know why a GM would pass that up.

Be honest do you think Ottawa needs to add? Maybe their 2nd round pick?

Byfield will most likely be gone at 2 and most hockey “experts” say Stutzle will most likely be a LW in the NHL.

Ottawa will draft Byfield and Raymond/Drysdale or Stutzle and Rossi/Perfetti imo

I think its fair, Isles 1st is underrated. And Neal is a big contract to get rid of. Plus Edmonton can pair Stutzle with Drai

I think Stutzle has what it takes to be a centre, but it's also totally possible that he goes to LA 2nd overall. Kings have Vilardi and Turcotte already as top C prospects, and they still have Kopitar. They could easily decide that Stutzle makes more sense as he can play the wing as well.

I agree with you if it stays the way it is now and no trades are made

honestly im glad LA is choosing, im torn on who i want. Love both so much

It definitely makes Ottawa's job easier. I love both, but I'll be pretty disappointed if Ottawa doesn't get Byfield. Until we actually get to see Stutzle in a Sens uniform.

Hey.. no no no. I want Lafreniere. It’s a good trade, but I really like Lafreniere so I wouldn’t do it.

OTT takes it and runs

this is an interesting deal

Yeah, we do.

What I have liked is:

3 + 15 + (C.Brown or Tierney, your choice) + OTT 3rd

For Neal+ 1OA + Russel + EDM 5th

EDM gets 20M in cap dump, Brown/Tierney + 3/15/64

OTT gets a RHD they can insulate their roster+sell at the deadline, NEAL for vet leadership and 1OA and 105OA
