Ottawa really doesn't need to make that trade with Montreal
Nashville isn't interested in that deal
It would be nice if Giroux wanted to sign that contract
No chance Ottawa extends Brannstrom 5 years. He'll likely be traded because no long term spot for him on LD top-4 and they stated several times WHY they don't want to play him on RD

This is 22-23, Tierney would be gone as a UFA. I don't know why he wants to downgrade for a cap dump with an extra year. Just let Tierney walk if he's not wanted.
Yeah seems more like a small brain fart from the OP. Don't have to take Byron at all as Tierney will be gone either at the deadline or as a UFA next summer. I'd be shocked if he was back. He doesn't even fit the way they want to play
We won't need to acquire any support/role/depth player for a while because the Sens will have tons of young players to evaluate. Even after graduating several quality players recently (Norris, Batherson, Stutzle, Brannstrom), there'll be ~20 more quality prospects to evaluate in the next few years.
The only players they should acquire (if possible) are difference makers or significant stop gap veterans.
