You’re insane if you think Ottawa is trading Norris + Connor Brown + Sanderson + top 5 pick unless said player is a top player in the league

To have Matthew and Brady on the same line (the marketing alone is worth the deal), and lots of top end talent still in the prospect pool, and more picks. I would without hesitation. A few UFAs, and Goaltending and Ottawa is there in a couple years no doubt.

This trade is a massive massive overpay.

You made the deal, no wonder you wouldn't hesitate, Sanderson is the best defenceman not playing in the NHL, Joshua Norris is a top powerplay forward that'd you'd have to pay anyway, he makes are powerplay work, pick is bound to be a decent choice and Brown and Holden are very important pieces to the team, there is no such team that will trade multiple franchise players and potential superstars, market is not profit, no way Ottawa does this, it's just a flames homer thing. It's really bad. We could just offer sheet him, or trade him for less, that is an absolute fleecing for Calgary, and the fact that I'm still writing is anoying cause I can't get over how bad of a deal this is for Ottawa. Surely, you had better things to do on a Wednesday afternoon then upset an intire fanbase.

How homer does this need to be:
Him:
Yesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

This is insanely bad for Ottawa can't get over that, is this a troll?

Do.... do you know anything about any of the players involved in this deal?

Just hilariously awful for Ottawa

LOL LOL LOL


I didn't even finish to read the proposal, when I saw Norris and Sanderson, all I needed to know to turn it down



Matthew Tkachuk : great player (will cost a lot of $$$ though), his brother plays for Ottawa
Monahan, Sean ($3,000,000 retained) : no use for Ottawa (Stutzle, Pinto, White, etc... even if Norris is traded, which won't happen)
2022 2nd round pick (CGY) + 2024 3rd round pick (CGY)


Norris, Joshua + Brown, Connor + Holden, Nick

lol you could have stopped there. Norris is not for trade. 30-40 goals scorers don't grow up on trees. 2 years younger than Tkachuk, won't cost as much too. Connor Brown is an elite 3rd liner, teams know the value of that kind of player (worth a 1st and a very good prospect). Holden is a solid veteran, worth a 3rd round pick


Jake Sanderson is one of the best D-man (if not the best) to not be in the NHL yet. 3 years of ELC : extremely valuable.

And the 2022 1st round pick (OTT) is not even protected.

Even if you remove the lottery pick I am not doing this, not even close.

I mean, Connor Brown and that lottery pick WOULD BE enough in the real world.




I wouldn't do that package for any player. This isn't basketball and it has been proven countless times, this is a team game and 1 player doesn't change things as much as fans would like to think. Look at Toronto/Edmonton who have some of the best players in the world and can't even get past the 1st round (except once for Edmonton)

Josh Norris + Connor Brown + Jake Sanderson + A Stutzle/Sanderson level prospect >>> McDavid alone

Wow, why so serious

Cause it doesn't sound like you know how bad this deal is, I can't tell if you're trolling or not.
