After like 1-2 years of Chychrun being available and nobody meeting Arizona's asking price too. Dude will be remembered as one of the worst GMs of all-time.

I actually don't mind this deal. Jensen plays the right side, skates well, plays defensive. He's not as good as Chychrun should be, but Chychrun wasn't as good as he should be last season either. I think this is fine...if Jensen can have a bit of a bounce back.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Part of the issue with Chychrun is that he wants to test the free market I'd say. So we are trading him at a very low value.

meh thank for nothing chychrun good riddence

 

[Daffy]

Sens fans upset at this? Solid trade considering Staios was put in a brutal spot. Jensen balances the back end so much more than Chychrun did. Much better fit.

 

[Senscore]

This smells like a Jfresh trade

 

[Knave]

Is Jensen a defensive guy? I feel like that's more important than anything here. We needed a defensive guy for Chabot or Chychrun. We had Chabot signed so Chychrun was the one to go.

 

[Dionysus]

Value is not great. But that's dictated by the market, if someone was making an offer of a 1st, Sens would have done it.

Hopefully Jensen provides solid defense and can play in the top 4 with Sandy or Chabot.

We traded a 12th overall and 2 2nds for Jensen and a 3rd.

Jensen is a fit but he's old and slow.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Jesus Christ.


Same cap hit but older and worse.

Decent cap hit from my perspective, if he can play a reasonable game with either Chabot or Sandy.

100% Pure Defense

 

[Emerica]

We were never going to get back what we paid for Chychrun. Jensen is a better fit. Would’ve liked the pick to be better than a ‘26 3rd but it is what it is.

 

[Senscore]

This trade means no more excuses for Chabot.


Although somehow I don't think it was Chychrun's fault he keeps fumbling pucks at the blue line.

Yeah. Value was a bit surprising at first. But Jensen is actually a really good fit.

Sanderson - Zub
Chabot - Jensen

Should actually be a very good, balanced top-4. Having Zub and Jensen as steady, natural RD partners for Sanderson and Chabot is should really help clean things up defensively. This shouldn't be a bad defensive team anymore.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDoo]

Simple fact is Chychrun is not that good a player. We just didn’t realize it til he was here. But all the NHL GMs in 2022 did realize it … except for one.
Only thing I’ll complain about this trade is it would have been nice to get a second back.

Nothing new Sens fans always over value their players Jensen is a good fit

This is where I am as well, well put.

 

[JimmyApples]

Need to get the thought that Chychrun was a very valuable commodity out of our minds.

What we have up for him has nothing to do with what he was worth right now.

Ding ding ding.

Chychrun is very overrated.. stupidly, Pierre Dorion fell for the bait a year ago.

I actually don’t mind the deal a bit. Jensen is older, but the Sens got better today. Unfortunately, we had to sign Perron.

I think we have to give SS a bit of rope to undo some of the PD moves that he feels didn't work. Chychrun just didn't work at all. His peers obviously know it so they played hard ball. Staios had to move him though. Jensen better not be falling off a cliff though - his advanced stats last year weren't great at all. Before that he was a steady RD on a good deal. We need that player. If he is still effective, we're a better team next year and I am happy for it.

He's right around that age where guys can totally lose it. Same age as Hamonic.

Of course, Tanev is also that age and we'd have done cartwheels to get him.

 

[starling]

Funny that 1.5 years ago Chych's main weakness was considered to be his health, so supposedly that yielded a discount. Now that he's finally played a full season, his value plummeted and he went for peanuts.

And it's only two years. Gives Staios time to find another RD, or perhaps Yak might be ready by 26-27.
