Larkin for McT and a 2nd is a steal

How can you say you have zero idea what he’s up to, and then in another thread you say ‘who wants juicy tidbits’

Are you connected to the team in some capacity, or do you happen to be ‘in the know’ of things?

I never mentioned anything about juicy tidbits?

Kyle Verbeek cryptic tweet coming in o/u 72 hours… or is Kyle Verbeek out to lunch for the summer ?

Crazy stuff. As a general hockey fan, really exciting to see big names moving. Some of these teams are really loading up. Next season should be fun. Might be a real disparity for wins/losses of top/bottom teams.

If you are a Larkin fan, probably good news today. If Ottawa is pushing for Robertson, it seems they want a winger. Seattle made their big move as did Florida. Vegas doesn't have the assets for a really big move. Utah, Minnesota, and Anaheim seem like the only realistic options left with the Ducks having the best assets for Detroit of the three IMO.

Can’t see Robertson having any desire to go to Ottawa.

Redwings can’t do a futures deal for Larkin without major blowback from the fans.

Seems to me that Utah has the best assets to offer Detroit. Ducks only are in the running if mctavish is in the offer and Detroit likes him enough to be interested.

Took the words out of my mouth with Robertson. I would be STUNNED if he was on board with Ottawa long term.

And larkin is definitely not going to accept a trade to the Sens. Sens will have to super overpay for knies or make a hockey trade for MacT… Robertson screams to me a money hungry driven player. So never know with him. If they pay him, he definitely might go to the Sens.

Got a weird feeling we're getting Jordan Spence

Depends, he’s listed at 5’11… does that mean he’s really 5’8? If he’s really zellwegger short. I would be shocked if the beeker is interested ( even though he clearly can defend. From
The looks of his stats card )

How would that type of undersized non physical defenseman fit into this teams needs? Especially losing Trouba

That would be crazy to add him especially with this team lacking any type of physical defensive dman currently

It’s so absolutely quiet on anything Anaheim related… is this the calm before the storm?

tomd · 2026-06-21T21:04:19-0400

If I'm Larkin I'd much rather go to Utah or Minny and play top line minutes with better wingers and (probably) a better chance of winning a SC. Being 2nd fiddle to Carlsson with 2nd line wingers wouldn't be that appealing to me...especially since both Utah and Minny are probably ahead of the Ducks in being closer to a SC.

I've decided that while Larkin is better than Mac today, his age is a concern and trading Mac for a better version of what we hoped Mac could be doesn't really improve the team that much. If we're going to trade him I'd be more interested in Hronek.

Ottawa Senators are going big-game hunting on NHL's trade market

Senators need to make a deal

This is significant

The Sens Gm having familiarity with MacT is definitely interesting. bidding war time

Rooch · 2026-06-21T21:36:12-0400

Would #9 for McT appease anyone? I would think Verbeek wants assets that can help us win now.

I don't know if Verbeek wants to trade Mac for futures, especially if we're already down Terry for half the season or more since he needs to get back into hockey shape as well as calibrate his accuracy in passing, shooting, along with timing.

Lmfao if MacT gets us that package back. Plz God! Has yakemuchuk not been developing well since drafted? Or what am I missing with him?

Would be a frankly shockingly good return
