I'd prefer Henrique

I like Henrique. He’s a little over paid but the whole waiver thing last year soured the relationship. Maybe if he’s not moved and a new front office and coach come in after the season he stays. I still think he’s a 20-25 goal scoring middle 6 C. Just thought with White seemingly in the dog house in OTT it wasn’t the worst idea.

White is definitely a shorter commitment if ANA decides in a year or two that it’s playoff time. He would be easier to get rid of.

White is signed longer and if he doesn’t pick it up that cap hit is pretty high too. His age is the only thing really attractive right now.

What? Which dog house?

Colin White is born on the same day as Thomas Chabot and they are best friends. White is actually very appreciated by pretty much everybody in the organization. Yes, he hasn't lived up to his new contract but it's hardly crippling, most Sens fans think he's about 1.25 AAV overpaid per season

No reason to trade him, Sens are not even reaching the cap floor at the moment. They won't get any value out of him so no point

Dog house as in being put on the 4th line and such. And some of the narrative about him being that he needs to be better and/or traded.

This was just a thought as OTT could use a vet middle 6 C and it would save them some money.

White > Henrique

Not really. Henrique had a poor season and still produced the same as White.

I see, it has been hard a bit with the coaching staff but I think it was more to lit a fire under his ass. He only played 2 of the first 6 games last season, even though he was clearly better than some of the guys playing (Anisimov, Stepan, Paquette, Galchenyuk, Tierney...). Once they started to "sort out" the lineup he played regularly and only got out of the lineup when he got injured.

Yes, if he could be better that'd be nice of course as he could earn his salary but the vast majority of Sens fans agree that from his recent level of play, he's about 1 M$ overpaid, which isn't crippling by any means.

The fact that he's Chabot's best friend and well appreciated around the team makes it unlikely that they trade him just to get rid of his salary. They are even below the cap floor as we speak, and will only reach it once Tkachuk is signed.

Sens could possibly still add Henrique but I think the Ducks would have to retain more and take Chris Tierney in return.

Henrique scored 3 more points, playing 1.5mins extra per night.

Henrique is 7 years older, declining in value and ability.

White might not be better on the ice right now, but I dont expect his ability to decrease and I do expect Henriques to.

White might not be "better", but he is definitely more valuable.

So basically all I got out of that is because white is 24 he’s better?

Again... not Better.

but because he is 24 he is more valuable. Yeah, its about that simple.
