Sujet: If Lou Lamiorello wants to spend what he got yesterday on Chychrun
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>sensonfire</b></div><div>There was barely any playoff push at the time, if any.

Too far back in the standings after a slow start to the season.



And cmarch's point is that this return has the exact same value as what Ottawa paid for Chychrun.

Which is not correct ...</div></div>

There 100% was... Ottawa was 2 pts back of FLO at the time (who had the 2nd wild card spot)...

So <a href="/users/cmarch" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">@cmarch</a>'s point is correct as Dorion thought, at the time of the trade, that the pick would be in the 16th-20th range, and making the 2nd in the 50-55 range...

That fact that OTT faded at the end had nothing to do with Dorion's perceived value of spending those assets

I don't think it's unreasonable and it seems like a pretty Pierre Dorion thing to do. Bailey's contract shouldn't be an issue since it'll be up by the time the Sens are getting into more of a cap crunch, but I think it only makes sense of Connor Brown gets moved in the offseason, or some other spot otherwise opens up on the 3rd line. Dorion has said he's specifically looking for a young, bonafide top 6 winger with team control, which Bailey doesn't fit anymore, and 2/3 of the 3rd line is pretty locked in between Formenton, Pinto and Connor Brown. Dorion likes Branny but isn't dumb enough to not know the deal with him, I could see something like this happening for sure. I think most Sens fans would rather just see them either hold onto Branny or add him as a sweetener in a package for a bigger fish, but this is pretty reasonable and realistic.
