I'm completely open to moving Getzlaf/Perry because I think this core is done being a Cup contender. I don't know if Ottawa has the kind of young forward(s) I'd be willing to move him for though. I'd have a top prospect forward + 1st + short term cap dump as the basis for any Getzlaf/Perry deal.
The OP proposes many deals in a week, but that doesn't mean that the Sens are looking to make as many trades! Reasons why this doesn't make sense for Ottawa :
- Sens can't afford to do this because Corey Perry is owed 44 millions for 5 seasons (including this one). Ryan absolutely has to go the other way then
- Sacrificing Brown/White/Perron/Dahlen/Chlapik AND a first to get another BIG contract?
- Offense doesn't seem to be the problem for Ottawa. We need better 2-way play. For Bergeron yes I'd make a big move. Turris + White + 1st (not that Bergeron have any desire to move Bergeron and not that Turris is bad defensively but you get my meaning). Perry is not the type of player the Sens should target.
So the question(s) are what would the Sens need to add to upgrade Ryan to Perry and why the Ducks would do this as they already had Ryan before and they actually need Perry more?
