Value is fair but something probably more important was forgotten...
teams trade from position of strength to fill a position of need
Ottawa trade a Goalie AND a RHD, 2 positions that really are not positions of strength at the moment to acquire a middle six forward (NO NEED as it is a position of strength already)
I would be happy with Niemela + 1st for Zub and Forsberg IF the Sens were saying "ok let's continue the rebuild a bit more". Pressure is already on Dorion. he wouldn't even be a NHL GM right now if let's Melnyk sold the team before the current season

Two players Ottawa absolutely aren't trading
Yeah, can't afford to trade any of them at this moment in time.
There is also NO NEED for Kerfoot. Prospect and pick doesn't accomplish anything now.

I’d imagine with Gustavsson coming up and the contract of Murray that Dubas would be targeting Forsberg in a trade.
Ottawa need 3 goalies, and particularly Forsberg because you can't put the pressure of being a #1 on Gustavsson. Murray is way too injury prone to only have 2 goalies. He's on IR like 50% of the time
