LeBrun: DeBrincat will most likely be traded, agent has submitted list of preferred destinations

[KevinRedkey]

If he gets traded I expect Ottawa to actively pursue a second round pick as part it, somehow included so they can draft Oliver Bonk. It would be such an Ottawa move.

Just out of curiosity - where's he projected to go in terms of pick#?

End of the 1st, beginning to mid of the 2nd round

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Ottawa is so lacking in cool that missing out on Reynolds and probably Snoop doesn’t help.

So the Snoop thing isn't happening?

I so want Ottawa to build an arena right downtown. It's our capital and hockey is our game.

The Sens should have an arena downtown in the most ideal spot, and ownership with money to spend.

That's all.

edit: oh, and it should be totally fine for politicians to "wine and dine and make deals" at an Ottawa Senators game IMO. That would really help with their revenue.

Carolinas pick at 30th could be in play.

I imagine the Sens would either want their 2024 1st on top of that, or something similar-ish.

Note: two 1sts sounds like a lot but they are so late it's almost two 2nds lol

 

[Ace Card Bedard]

Carolina should be all over this.
The one thing they desperately need is goal-scoring talent.

 

[Grinner]

Kings fans are usually pretty delusional so I wouldn’t get too worked up by it

One would almost think they are a Canadian team

 

[EXTRAS]

Send him to Edmonton

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDoo]

I think Ottawa has players they like more and just fit what they are doing better and Debrincat will probably get them a player or players who will also fit better. Sometimes maximizing an asset turns out real good for you. Think Sens get a nice piece back who fits into the more 2 way game they are trying to play.

The Sens are trying to play a 2 way game? Since when?

 

[The don godfather]

Nobody gives a shit about +/-

Nonsense it's a very important stat.

 

[dirtydanglez]

something around debrincat for hart. close 2 threads at once.

Doesn’t. Make. Sense. At. All.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Minnesota makes sense to me. Send him there if he wants out for a couple of picks. They have plenty and could use the scoring.

 

[Boxscore]

Could you imagine DeBrincat back in Chicago and scoring 50 with Bedard lmao.

 

[57special]

Minnesota makes sense to me. Send him there if he wants out for a couple of picks. They have plenty and could use the scoring.

You obviously don't know much about Minnesota. They have zero cap space due to their 15M/yr cap penalties.

 

[Justicebork]

Yeah Minnesota desperately needs draft picks so they can get some cost controlled talent onto their roster

 

[BelovedIsles]

I think so too. But don't see what NYI can offer that would be attractive to Sens outside of one of your top defenders, but don't think NYI want to touch that.

Whalstrom, Sam Bolduc, Pulock, a 1st, JGP. I'm willing to part with these.

for the sens it does. for philly no, but most of the moves they do dont make sense.

Once more with "feeling"

i know that 90% of posters here dont know what kind of player Brinksy is,
so its not your fault.

Here goes once more.

Alex is a two way forward who is a first pass guy, who thinks the game three, four steps ahead of the play.

His hockey sense in neutral and offensive zones is one of the best in the NHL.

Good for and backchecker, surprisingly strong for his size/weigh class player.

In last few years have acquired a physical side to his game, which has shown in hits for one.

Great pp and pk player.

Is as good as passer what shooter.
His shot is one of the best in the NHL,
his release is one of the quickest, so is the accuracy of his shot.

He has the ability to score from anywhere in the o-zone, literally.

His ability to roof the puck is... well i have never seen a player whi can do it better what the cat does.

 

[pld459666]

Detroit's 17th and 2nd?

Don't think Ottawa gets a better offer.

 

[SnS]

Wrong.

New GM and people in charge. Things are changing.

 

[HolyGhost]

Good player. Not worth 9+ million but should certainly net Ottawa a decent return.

Chicago was right to trade him when they did given their rebuild timeline.

Yes and no. If he wants 9 mill a year a team would be better to offer sheet him

 

[ottawah]

Yes and no. If he wants 9 mill a year a team would be better to offer sheet him

Heck no. Thats two firsts. Unlikely a team is paying that in the summer.

edit: oh, and it should be totally fine for politicians to "wine and dine and make deals" at an Ottawa Senators game IMO. That would really help with their revenue.

They pretty much can, it seems that type of behaviour is currently accepted at the political level. Its the bureaucratic level where its really a big no-no and the consequences are significantly more severe.

 

[dirtydanglez]

Wrong.

New GM and people in charge. Things are changing.

you're basing that off an awfully small sample size.

 

[SnS]

you're basing that off an awfully small sample size.

I think things will be done much much differently going forward.

Good points. I think the other point though is his contract, a one-year Qualifying Offer of $9 m. Senators are probably allowing other interested teams to speaking to his camp to see what kind of contract can be worked out to a location he likes.
