Sujet: 8 player deal Chychrun to LA - probably terrible
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hii</b></div><div>Except you neglet the fact that Ottawa doesn't need to do any of these moves and to loss a top four defesemen for giving up a player is absurd. Brannstromm has become a staple in the top four and has looked amazing. Gustavsson is worth far more than a third to Ottawa cause he is the goalie of the future still and Formenton is usefull as well and there is not a need for Roy. The problem with this is that Ottawa has does not need to be in this deal and shouldn't make this deal cause they instantly loss several good pieces and gain nothing of value back for them.</div></div>

This is a very biased sounding response.

Brannstrom is far from a top 4 staple and in fact might be struggling to get into a game the second Sanderson steps into one. As much as I'd like to see them play him I'm not convinced the outlook is good at this point.

Gustavsson has been extremely average and unless the team unloads Murray somehow, he's leaving anyway. Goalies don't traditionally get great returns unless they are rockstars.

Formenton is quite useful and a great guy to have but Ottawa needs a top 4RD pretty badly. Roy would help there a ton. He does not add "nothing of value".

You have to give to get. These moves solve problems, not create them.

Sujet: Couple senators moves
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Claesson4Norris</b></div><div>Branny is a lefty, and Ottawa doesn't see him as a right side guy. Dorion mentioned on a podcast that they feel he dead ends himself when moving the puck on his off side. He's also currently boxed out of the NHL as they have 7 NHL Dmen, and Sanderson is coming at the end of the year.

Ottawa doesn't really have that much long term at C. They Have Norris as their top guy, Pinto who is probably a 2/3, White who is potentially moving to the wing (Pinto is more suitable as a C, and Ottawa is adding a C this summer). Paul is primarily a winger, but I think he can be a great 4C, and Tierney will be gone by the deadline. As for Prospects, they don't really have anyone close to the NHL besides Pinto.

If Ottawa is shopping Brannstrom, getting a young player with upside would be preferable to trading him for an NHLer without as much offensive talent like Ryan or Dylan Strome. Vilardi might never reach his full potential, but he's already a solid NHL player, and he has the upside to be the most skilled C Ottawa has imo.</div></div>

I think this trade has the potential to be a win for both teams in a big way. Unless one of them totally falls out, the upside and fit is there both ways.
