Confirmed with Link: Brady to Fla: 9oa, 25oa, 2029 1st, and a 2nd

[JungleBeat]

FLA said nope Staios had to settle for the unknown

Eh makes sense. Regardless atleast Staios didn’t wait two years LOL

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

I'm glad the bandaid was ripped off this summer instead of waiting another year.

The return we would have got a year from now almost certainly would have been quite a bit worse.

If it was going to happen at some point, better it happened now so we could maximize his return.

It's crazy. This partly only happens because Florida missed the playoffs.

Who knows, maybe it happens anyways, but if Florida doesn't have the 9th overall pick, they really don't have a package.

For everybody involved, the Sens, Brady, the Panthers, knowing how they had that pick must have ensured that this wasn't going to drag on.

It was just mean to be.

 

[DueDiligence]

They'll turn those picks into players

Those picks will be players about the time Chabot will no longer be a top 4 guy. This team is destined to be middle of the road forever.

 

[GCK]

This is a weak return. Yuck

How is it a weak return for a player you criticized incessantly. Try to be consistent at least

 

[Micklebot]

Those picks will be players about the time Chabot will no longer be a top 4 guy. This team is destined to be middle of the road forever.

I think he meant via trades

By then Yakemchuk will have a few seasons in our PP

 

[ToastrStutzle]

Staios got a great return given the circumstances. If he can somehow get an extended Robertson, this team will be significantly better.

Add a Tippet and we're ready to roll.

I'd be surprised if Ottawa drafts a player at 9. That pick will likely be traded.

 

[Boud]

I’ll call it right now we will acquire 2 legit top 6 forwards before the season starts.

We won’t be worse next season IMO.

 

[PlayOn]

Jake Sanderson is guaranteed the next captain of this franchise by the way. 100% guaranteed.

He will lead this team on and off the ice and he will be a great leader.

It won’t be Stutzle and it won’t be Chabot.

Stützle is the guy they give the A when someone is out, he’s the guy they trot out there during difficult moments to chat with the media, he’s the guy that fills up half the CTC with his jersey, and he’s not American which is a nice way to avoid the drama after international tournaments.

I will be genuinely surprised if it’s not him.

 

[Speatleysson]

If something as softball as this makes him want out, then he's not cut out for a Canadian market.

That's where we will disagree man.. I don't think this was very "softball".

He was harassed endlessly by the media and "fans"; probably had his DMs filled with hate over being an American visiting the white house etc..

If you don't feel welcomed in the city you live in, you're not going to be motivated to stay and play.

IDGAF if he was a Trump supporter or not... I don't care about player's political views.. this type of obsession from people in Canada is going to drive desire to play in our market right into the ******* ground.

 

[Relapsing]

Wait until you find out majority of the players are conservative you may have to cheer for another team lol

Enjoy your party lol

Most players know enough to shut their f***ing mouths and not make themselves the center of a controversy. Brady had none of those qualities.

 

[LynxBud]

Kinda hoped Brady would prove me and many others wrong, but he did not.
He's exactly what everyone's always known him to be. Just another classless sack of shit.

Off to live in his brother's shadow. Pathetic.

 

[inthewings]

Can't imagine looking at our softball media pool and thinking this is a tough media market. Absolute kid gloves here compared to elsewhere.

Like, are people really complaining that we lost a player that couldn't hack our media market? That bitched ad infinitum about how much shit his controversial actions kicked up behind him?

We're to believe that our franchise is crippled because big, bad Brady Tkachuk - supposed elite fearless power forward - left town because Claire Hanna was mean to him.

 

[albator71]

He might be named the next Captain, but do you think he's going to want to stay long?

He was already harassed by our idiot media team over the olympics and visiting the white house. If the Sens show any sign of being good, the toronto media will jump on the first opportunity to drive our boy out of town.

Well if the team is a contender then I'm pretty sure he will stay, playing on a contending team matters

 

[Gil Gunderson]

I think trading for Mathew Tkachuk might be easier than getting Robertson to sign here.

There is a huge difference in the character level of Sanderson vs Brady.

Sanderson will treat the C as a privilege and live up to it. Brady thought it was his by right.

Sanderson is gonna use the C to push himself to be even better.

 

[Micklebot]

I'd be surprised if Ottawa drafts a player at 9. That pick will likely be traded.

Why?

If think we'd trade 25 and keep 9

 

[OUT HOUSE]

I hope Claire doesn’t ask Sanderson any tough questions next year

 

[Boud]

I will be genuinely surprised if it’s not him.

I just don’t think Stutzle has the same mindset and attitude that Sanderson has.

I put my money on Sanderson.

 

[DueDiligence]

Swallow your pride and admit you were delusional delusional

Why? He was a hell of a player for many year with this team. Guys like you were delusional because you wouldn't admit he was good.

 

[Relapsing]

I am more confident than ever that moving him is the right decision to make for this team and the fans.

Being the captain of this team should mean something. That there should be an expectation of how the captain comports himself on and off the ice. How he represents this city and the team. I am not ok with him being the captain of this team moving forward. It is abundantly clear to me that he isn't respecting what it means to be the captain of the team in the nation's capital.

 

[Speatleysson]

Well if the team is a contender then I'm pretty sure he will stay, playing on a contending team matters

Our team was on the up and up.. 2 years of playoffs in a row... and our Captain asked to be traded. I'm sure Sandy could find a trade to a team with better odds than Ottawa.

 

[Relapsing]

We're to believe that our franchise is crippled because big, bad Brady Tkachuk - supposed elite fearless power forward - left town because Claire Hanna was mean to him.

If people think that this team rests on the shoulders of a single player, they can follow Tkachuk for all I f***ing care.

Dude he got asked questions in one scrum.

He got the exact same thing that Miller got in NYC, or Swayman got in Boston. The guy the questions were about isn't exactly beloved in those cities either.

It had zero to do with that.

His wife moved out of Canada when people thought the Four Nations tournament would be an exhibition game. Before any political stuff happened (i.e. tariffs, tweets, etc).

They didn't want to live here. And that's their choice. He negotiated a NMC and as soon as he had the leverage, used it.

Nothing was changing this. He was never staying here.

Glad Staios acted quickly.
