Confirmed Trade: [CHI/OTT] Nikita Zaitsev, 2023 2nd round pick, and 2026 4th round pick for future considerations

[Skinnyjimmy08]

Hmmm what does Ottawa have up their sleeve

 

[dubey]

How much has been traded over Zaitsev's career just to get rid of him

 

[Hale The Villain]

About what I expected. 2nd is the set price for bad D on 1 year contracts. 4th is to take on his deal for the rest of this year.

 

[Satan]

Let’s go fellas

 

[Linkens Mastery]

Time for Ottawa to trade for Krug/Parayko?

No, no it's not. Would be funny tho.

 

[PainForShane]

About the cost I expected this entire time. Lot of people are going to be eating crow on this one.

I'll bite. Thought it would've taken more than this to dump Zaitsev. Maybe significantly more.

Great job clearing this contract Ottawa, Sens fans you were right

 

[Maple Leaf]

"future considerations"

people were saying 2 2nds in the summer…a 2nd for each year. Now with near 75% of year in one 2nd is now a 4th.

 

[Carlzner]

Clearing space for Erik Karlsson’s return

 

[ranold26]

OTT had 13.5m in cap room and just cap dumped another 4.5m.... something is up,.

 

[DaBossN]

always wondered.. what does future considerations mean

 

[themelkman]

Sharks shouldve done this, but we probably had to wait for Meiers money off the books

 

[GeeoffBrown]

lots of salary moving today. Could be gearing up for fun times

I had convos with people saying it would cost two 2nds+ even at the deadline.

 

[Satan]

You would think the value of future considerations is at an all time low considering climate change et al

 

[Mrfenn92]

Love it

 

[Glorydays22]

See this pisses me off. Why wouldn't the isles do this??? Someone f***ing wake up LOU!!!

 

[Breakers]

$6 million in cash for a 2nd and 4th isn’t bad

 

[armani]

Good trade for the Sens, the caps freed is way important than the 2023 2nd round pick.

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

A wide variety of things.

It could be anywhere from throwing in a 7th down the line, to picking up a bar tab.

 

[Akrapovince]

Ottawa pays extra to get rid of Zaitsev this season instead of waiting until the post season just to pick up a rental would be the most Sens thing ever.

He probably had California teams on the NT list.
