I don't hate packaging Lassi and Joseph together but, I doubt ARI is unlikely to give up draft picks at this point in their rebuild. Maybe a team like Seattle with a guy like Tolvanin or Geekie with a pick coming back.

I also don't think Kleven will make the team next year to start and he might come up if there are injuries. He's fresh out of the NCAA and should be given some time to develop and play loads of mins in the AHL before being a bottom-pair D.

I would not break up Timmy and Brady at any point! I would maybe even slide Norris in on the RW on that line to see if that works. Give Norris an easier time than playing Centre and see if that can help him stay healthy.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GoldBear</b></div><div>Totally fair. As a Sens fan I am at high risk of overvaluing Chabot, but he is a really good player that gets overlooked because of his team. I picked a trade with Calgary since they have a lot of players capable of playing RD and figured they'd be open to moving one.

As for not being able to afford Chabot, in theory they could. Moving Andersson and Vladar opens approximately $6.7mil in cap space. Throw in the $1mil the cap rises and you're almost there lol. Would Calgary want to do that? No idea, but that's why we're all here eh</div></div>

No they can't afford him at all. Even with the 1M raise in cap Calgary is already projected to about 1-1.5M over the cap next year with a full roster. They already have to shed cap this summer unless the cap goes up more than 1M. Nevermind trading put 2 roster players for 1 that is net more expensive

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GoldBear</b></div><div>Honestly, money. I can't see us being able to afford Chabot, Sanderson, and Chychrun beyond this season. With Brannstrom's improved play and Kleven upcoming (not to mention JBD and Thompson improving) I figured a LD would be safe to move so I picked the one with the highest cap hit.

I don't watch too many Flames games but I liked Zadorov last year and figured he'd be an improvement over Hamonic as 2RD to play with Sanderson, our future franchise defenseman. Plus, let's us keep Chychrun on his good side without wasting talent on the 3rd pairing. Adding Vladar was to give some cushion in case Forsberg got injured and Sogaard needed some more AHL time. Happy to reconsider this for a bit more of a defensive stalwart; say Oleksiak or Larsson (purely theoretical, need to ignore NTC issues), plus our boy D'Accord (?) from SEA.


But I did warn this was going to be full of bad ideas.</div></div>

Hockey-wise trading Chabot is not the worst idea but it would be a huge blow to the franchise's credibility and reputation, not to mention the locker room. And if a Chabot trade did happen I'd want a much better return than that.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Byrr</b></div><div>No reason for them to push further in. They already jumped early this past offseason and are now pot committed. Might as well make the best of whats left and wait until the right time.</div></div>

This makes no sense. They didn’t jump early . There were a few issues.

They traded Connor Brown assuming Formenton would be there on the 3rd line , ended up losing both.

They lost Norris pretty much the whole year.

They lost Zub for a combined like 2 months.

They played over a month with an AHL level 3rd line because of injuries to Motte, Norris and Joseph.

They had a bad November , other than that they’ve been really good.


Everyone knew they needed a top 4D since last summer and Dorion didn’t get one . They didn’t jump early but they didn’t get the top 4D they needed
