Based on Katlsson’s recent comments to the media and the fact he has an NMC, it sounds like he has zero interest in accepting a trade back to Ottawa.

considering the headline was just "would this trade work", I really don't see why everybody is acting like Mendes is going full Methot with like "just trade for him!!!" or whatever

For all intents and purposes, it looks like the Canes will just run 3 goalies next season, between PK, Freddie, and now Martin.

What is the OTT ownership like now? Are they potentially interested in trading Norris if they think he might never be healthy again? Not even sure on how contract insurance works with Norris either.

When it comes to ownership, Michael Andlauer is night and day compared to Eugene Melnyk.

As for Norris, we're going to give him at least 1 more season.

THE OTTAWA SENATORS ARE NOT TRADING 1ST ROUND PICKS

If EK is moved itll be a hockey trade with Norris going for EK retained

Trading them 2 goalies? Lol

HOW ABOUT WE DON'T TRADE FOR EK

both OTT and Ek have zero interest in a reunion.

that is one of the worst chych trades ive seen so far...

Lol what do you think chychrun is returning?

what a top 4 man in his prime is worth, OTT will not trade him as a rental, if they don't get fair value they will re-sign him.

And I have negative interest in a reunion.

You're one of the worst homers on this site I've seen so far ...

A 1st, a 2nd and an NHL defensmen is a good return, especially with one year left. It's essentially what you traded for him

OTT traded 12th oa and 2x2nd, a late first a 2nd and a 3rd pairing dman that might not even be better than OTT already has is not even close to that value, and again OTT will not be trading him, if they do, as a rental thus no value lost.

You didn't know what the pick was when you traded it. There were also conditions on several picks. An actual nhl player is about as, if not more valuable than a 2nd round pick.

Also, he had more term when you traded for him

his current term is irrelevant in a trade, for the THIRD DAM TIME he wont be traded as a rental, in case you are ignorant fo what that means, it means he will sign with the team that gets him. Lauzon is not worth a 2nd, just because he is a "NHL Dman" don't mean he has a ton of value.

You seem to really struggle with people disagreeing with you.

Grow up

i struggle with unintelligent people who are incapable of reading and making repeat myself several times.

go back to kindergarten since seem to have not learned how to read or comprehend things in school

Lol, so because you say something that's how it is?

Always a sign of a good argument when you need to personally insult the other person.

What about a package centered around Karlsson to OTT for Korpisalo and Chabot for PIT?

Chabot is not someone we're looking to move as of right now.

But if there's a trade based on such a package that you'd like to post in AGM, I'll take a look at it.




Currently, the Ottawa Senators are a poorly constructed team.

As of right now, we have 4 puck-moving NHL-quality Left Shot Ds (Sanderson + Chabot + Chychrun + Brannstrom).

We definitely need to move 1 out, quite possibly 2 (most likely Brannstrom, then Chychrun).




Then we need a Top 4 right shot D that is ...

>>>> sound defensively

>>>> can block shots

>>>> can kill penalties

>>>> Someone like Chris Tanev, Matt Roy or Dylan DeMelo




I don't think Karlsson fits the description of what we're looking for.

IMO, if we're bringing him back, it will be from signing him as a UFA in 2027.

When Brannstrom, Chychrun and maybe even Chabot will be long gone.

what is he going to say lol "I hate Pittsburgh, I cant wait to get the hell out of here"

Well he straight-up mocked Canadian hockey media, so clearly he wasn’t just trying to skirt the question.
