Great return for Ottawa

It's a horrible trade. None of those 1sts are blue chip assets

This puts the Sens in a re-tool phase when these are prime years for Stutzle, Sanderson, Chabot.

 

[Reverend Mayhem]

Ah, the brothers reunite.

So much for Brady's promise of commitment, hehe.

Ah! He had his finger crossed behind his back!

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Brady going to Florida certainly makes sense of all those DeBrusk to Ottawa rumors.

They’ll have a bunch of extra picks to spend, if the reported acquisition price is accurate.

Exactly why I'm so hesitant w/ Chase Reid for our 3rd pick. Not worth potentially torpedoing the team once we're competitive again.

 

[Kill Vector]

Ottawa is a poverty franchise.

Steve Staios is someone who'd probably pay an exorbitant price for DeBrusk. The 25th selection is possible, which just sounds hilarious to think knowing what we've seen of this player since he's joined the Canucks.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

9th OA is a quality asset. The rest, yikes. Not a great return for Ottawa.

I'd normally disagree, but Carels is literally right there who's a very similar level prospect, and has expressed a desire to want to bring a Cup back to Canada.

 

[Vector]

This f***ing sucks for the Senators. An ascending team, probably, forced to trade their captain and a member of the core for futures in a weak draft. They now have to flip those futures for win-now players.

9th overall this draft is a really good asset.

I expect them to only end up using one of these 4 picks and the rest will be flipped.

Someone tell Ottawa Debrusk is worth a 1st and EP is worth 9th overall.

 

[StickShift]

Feels like the Sens sold low. A Brady Tkachuk trade seemed of some sort was telegraphed two years ago and they waited until he had a poor season that made such a trade an immediate need.

 

[wonton15]

…Pettersson and DeBrusk and for the 9th+

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Holy Shit. Brady to Florida!

 

[Icebreakers]

Its a fine return.

9th overall is a premium asset and that 1st in 2029 could be a lottery pick.

He had 2 years left on his deal.

Brady Tkachuk isnt a top 10 winger in the league.

He also has a full NMC and i think his list was like 3 teams.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

This is a terrible return.

 

[bossram]

Edmonton does it again. Bowman just keeps shovelling assets and cap space at non-impactful bottom-six players.

In a vacuum, Seattle will "win" the trade from a value perspective. Samoskevich will be a top-six forward, which is better than your expected outcome from a 25th overall pick.

In the big picture, what does this actually accomplish for Seattle? The get yet another good-but-not-great forward, and basically just further ossifies their roster as one that will finish 9th or 10th in the West every season.

Florida will convert the picks into another roster player that helps them go on another Cup. In reality, they are the winners here.

Looks like I was immediately correct here.

Someone tell Ottawa Debrusk is worth a 1st and EP is worth 9th overall.

9th overall is overrated. They probably take someone like Smits, who is a #4 guy. The other picks are B-tier assets (unless FLA somehow falls completely out in 2029). And you still have to factor in the TVM. A 2029 pick isn't a real contributor until like 2032 at best.

This is extremely bad for Ottawa. This is a team that needs to be competing right now, not taking a step back as their core ages into their prime. They should be looking to flip all of these picks (#9 included) for a high-end roster player right now.

 

[wonton15]

I do think Brady is quite overrated and isn’t worth the 3 1sts he went for. But reuniting the Tkachuks will be quite fun to watch lol

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

People were speculating Lundell + #9 for Larkin and now they get to keep Lundell and add Brady for what essential amounted to #9 and Samoskevich.

Zito is a genius.

 

[Donuts]

Maybe next is hellybuck to florida

Just keep on tanking canucks... florida gonna dominate for 2 years at least

 

[Nuckles]

Oh god please tell me Ottawa is flipping that 25th pick for Debrusk

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

I thought you weren't allowed to trade on weekends?

No matter what you think, they can get a boat load for 3 first and a second

I mean, they could only do what the market gives them. Brady obviously wanted out and wasnt re-signing. That and he is going on his own podcast and not defending his own teammates as the captain. This was a Q Hughes situation all over again. They had a price and the team matched it.

They should have pried a Lundell out of there but if FLA wasnt budging then you have to move on. He has a full NMC.

Obviously with Stutzle + Sanderson + Batherson + Cozens you want to win now....but they arent necessarily close to winning right now. Stutzle and Sanderson are only 24.


9th overall is actually a good spot to be in. You are guaranteed one of Verhoeff/Smits/Cullen/Rudolph.
