<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BoringBrianMacLellan</b></div><div>Maybe downgrade Suzdalev to a Karabela or Hyland? I thought it was a bit of an overpay for sure, but to get a guy that I think could thrive in our system like Laine, I'd do it.

And for Toronto, my thought process was I know they'd probably rather have Jensen, but TVR is a mil cheaper which is huge for them. And he could pair nicely with Reilly I think</div></div>

I think it's just so hard to ballpark Laine's trade value right now. He's missed a large majority of this season and has been so up and down his whole career, but I swear he has the potential to pot 50 in a year in the right scenario. Maybe he meshes with McMichael or Lapierre and just lights it up. I can't see this offer being beaten out by anyone else. I think the 2024 1st and a low level prospect should be more than enough given his injury history and where Columbus is right now in their rebuild.

Sujet: Not in on Graf but he would certainly aid the situation in DC
It's never a bad thing to acquire more young guys, but honestly I don't know how he would slot in with all the guys that the caps will have next year:

Ovi Strome Leonard
Miro McMichael Wilson
Milano Lapierre Protas
Malenstyn Dowd Oshie

Oshie is already on the fourth line and shouldn't be. Who does Graf push out? I guess if you're banking on Wilson playing with Dowd and Malenstyn after next season you have some room, but there's really not much need for another guy that isn't a guaranteed impact player. You could argue for moving Milano since he's always dealing with injuries it seems and opening up a spot there, but even then you have guys like Cristall who should make the jump in a year or two, and Oshie can fill the gap in the mean time.

Sujet: Making the Sens more family friendly with realistic trades and signings
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>You don't think Chychrun can play on Washington's top pairing ?

Also, if you want to get him in UFA, you'll need to beat 31 different teams to the punch.</div></div>

Would Chychrun be an upgrade over Fehervary or Sandin? Probably. The caps have more pressing needs than another LHD though. They can run Fehervary Sandin and Alexyev on the left and be fine. It’s the RD that need to be re-tooled and the coaching staff is very picky about D playing their correct sides with their handedness.

Chychrun is a very good add for any team but the caps wouldn’t lose sleep over not getting him in free agency. Especially when you look at the guys the caps have been picking up in the first round since 2019, they’d probably value their picks highly because the amateur scouts are doing a pretty good job and would rather hold onto that pick.

The trade isn’t bad value - it’s just probably different than the direction the caps are headed in.
