Ottawa isn't trading Stuzle. He is 21 and just dropped 90 points. You would need to offer Seider before Ottawa starts to entertain him in a trade (which Detroit would not do).

Sorry Sens fans

You don't give a team a deep prospect pool by trading them a bunch of mid players.

Sens don't have a deep prospect pool because most of them have graduated and signed long term with the team, which has solid solidified our top 6, our center depth, our D. They stilll have Greig and Kleven that seem to be ready to graduate soon. Maybe Ostapchuk too. Mads and Leevi look great. Maybe Jarventi. Halladay is looking promising.

So yeah, Sens are good, no need for the "help" you're offering.

LoL stutzle

The prize in that package is Stutzle, not DeBrincat, and Ottawa won't be trading him unless they're getting at least Seider and a first back; take out one of the firsts and any two of the players and Stutzle and Ottawa might consider that.

Yeah this was mostly all derived from a tweet I saw where they did a mock with Stutzle and Debrincat for Raymond and the 2 firsts... I thought this might be a better alternative. I do like Greig's game, however I don't see him cracking the top 6 without some major improvements (would be a stellar 3C though). Berggren has more offensive upside and is commonly considered a better prospect, a lot like Raymond in my opinion. I don't see any of the rest of the Sens prospects amounting to much (not that what I think means anything), the class as a whole is typically ranked in the bottom 10 of the league. Sebrango is a defensive prospect with a high upside who has fallen victim to an exceptionally deep Detroit LD prospect pool. He had a strong showing at the WJC, and I have heard multiple sources say they think he is NHL ready and would play on teams that aren't as stacked on the left side. Now to who I think you mean by "Mid": Kubalik and Fabbri are damage control in the top 6. While not comparable to the point production of Cat and Stutzle, they put up decent numbers (both about .6 ppg) and can create offense. Ras is a big, fast, and gritty bottom 6 player, a spot where I think the Sens really lack. Having him for center depth is also very important with the reoccurring shoulder injuries for Pinto and Norris. On top of all this you receive 2 more first round picks next year to either jump start your prospect pool or use to trade for some high end talent now. Also, from the rumors I have heard, the Debrincat negotiations are holding up signing Tarasenko... just more incentive to move him. That being said, I don't completely disagree with what you are saying. Hopefully it is a little more clear where I am coming from now though.

Ottawa will never trade stutzle to Detroit. They have nothing even worth considering.
