I love boning the Senators as much as anyone, but a depth LD prospect is worth less than Zadina to them.

Ottawa says no. Starts with a 1st and a prospect that isn’t LD

vegas isnt taking faksa at full hit. that is for sure.

that roster is very meh looking too.

hey slide the Canes, Marchment and Miller and we'll give you Drury and something else for some cap relief

i am not sure you understand values if you think two late 2nds are better than 7th overall

Not even close to what they paid for DeBrincat.

I wouldn't say this is more than what they paid, but it's spot-on value-wise. Sens fans are out of their mind if they think they're getting the same return lol. They won't even be getting a first-round pick from him, guaranteed.

I don't think the Jackets need more RHD, but why not take him at this point.

They’re getting a 1st +++

There’s precedents

2 pluses according to Freidman, not 3. A winger prospect, 1st and a mid round pick

Two is more than one!!!!

Nah. Wrong. Read the username buddy.

Read the history buddy

That’s probably realistic tbh

Not enough for Cat imo and I don’t really want to trade D prospects

Damn, I'm in a breakfast place with my laptop and I chuckled out loud... Thanks for that


"Ottawa gets more than what they paid for him"

A LHD meh prospect Ottawa or Bellevile has ZERO need for and two 2nds...


Where do you all come from?

I'm not sure what kind of Kool-Aid they're serving up in Ottawa, but you might want to switch to water because your assessment here is more diluted than the Sens' playoff hopes.

Your notion that DeBrincat will fetch a first-round pick and change is about as stable as your team's attendance figures. Let me help you with some Hockey Trade 101: a player's trade value depreciates significantly when they publicly state a preference for certain destinations. It's common sense, which seems to be not-so-common in your case.

So, here's a reality check: DeBrincat has made it pretty clear he'd rather get his teeth drilled without Novocaine than play for Ottawa. His heart's in Detroit or Dallas, and anyone with half a clue about negotiation knows that when a player is that specific, the price drops faster than the Sens in the standings.

But sure, let's live in your fairy-tale world for a second. Let's say teams are lining up to overpay for a player who doesn't even want to play for them. That sounds about as logical as your team's draft strategy, which, let me remind you, has resulted in more misses than hits.

But don't let reality hit you too hard, csick. After all, with a username like that, one would think you'd have more of an understanding of how these things work. But I guess being a Sens fan does require a certain level of suspension of disbelief.

Keep dreaming, buddy. Maybe one day your team's trade strategy will be as solid as your conviction. Until then, I suggest you lay off the hot takes. Your track record is colder than a January night in Ottawa.

Lol ok buddy.

Boston gave up a 1st for 2 months of Bertuzzi
Toronto gave up a 1st and 2nd for 2 months of ROR.

But you think they won’t get a 1st for 1 full year of 25 year old Debrincat lmao.

Lay off the drugs dude
