Confirmed Trade: [FLA/OTT] Brady Tkachuk for two 2026 1st round picks (9th, 25th OA), c. 2029/30 1st round pick (top 10 protected), 2027 2nd round pick

[Breakers]

I mean everyone knew this was coming

His dad and brother talked on podcasts about the sens like they were a joke

Brady just sat there

 

[Theosis]

I wouldn’t have thought Florida had the cap space

Lots of cap friendly deals when there's no income tax.

 

[OVO16]

Its hilarious that all the Insiders were worried about Mathews requesting a trade all off-season....turns out they were worried about the wrong Captain lmao

But that just goes to show how Irrelevant the sens are to the Canadian Media. Its sad actually

 

[BB88]

Its easy to GM when players demand you come to your team. I hope Zito replaces Chevaldayoff one day so we can see how he actually GM’s.

How easy it is to forget that before Bill Florida was the biggest laughing stock in the league

Now it’s all about how easy it is

 

[Vegaspunk]

Who tf does Florida start in goal now though or are they just gonna win every game 6-5

 

[eXile3]

Brady going to be the fourth best forward on that team.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

so who is the goalie? are they giving Bob the money? can they even give him the money?

can they move that 2030 1st rounder to get one?

are they allowed to?

 

[joepeps]

Lol yeah right.

Even Canadian hockey players can’t wait to get to Florida, Tampa, Vegas and Dallas.

Yeah no tax state and they make more money... Needs to be stopped before we have another shutdown of the league... The small market teams are getting f***ed

 

[CallMeShaft]

Don't have much of an opinion on the trade other than I wonder what this means for Florida's goaltending situation. They currently don't have a starter or a backup for next season, and now are pretty limited in terms of cap space and trade assets.

Kinda shocked that that 9th overall pick wasn't moved for Helly or Shesty.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Rodrigues and Boqvist are 4.5 mil right there. I’m sure they have a target.

I don't think any team is going to be looking to help Florida out with the cap at this point.

Don't they still have their 2028 1st

No that pick went for Marchand.

Still time for Matthew's to ask out.

 

[TotalHomer]

Holy shiiiiiiiiiiit!!!

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

That's brutal for Ottawa.

 

[jetsforever]

No way WHAT
Decent return for Ottawa at least

 

[BB88]

As we just saw with Marner, it's a lot different to be the 2nd best forward on a team as opposed to more of a depth role. Brady is going to thrive in Florida with the amount of talent they have and no pressure on him.

Or M.Tkachuk

He was supposed to be a bad playoff player

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

Honestly I'm not even sure I understand this trade for Florida either. They now have $7 million in cap space without having a goalie and trading all of their 1sts until 2030. Even if they fill out their skaters with Schwindt and Sebrango for $1.6 million combined, are you getting competent goaltending whatsoever for $5.4 million? I'm pretty skeptical about it.

It doesn't matter if they have the rattiest team ever between Bennett, Marchand and the Tkachuk bros if their goalies are giving them an .850 save%.

I definitely think you can make it work, but with goalies there is always an element of luck involved. Look at someone like Bussi for example. You put a great team in front of even an average goalie and their chances of success go up exponentially.

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Brady Tkachuk is an awful captain. How do you be a captain and then ditch your team?

Trash person.

Ask Larkin

 

[Maitz]

Unless they package those picks for someone else it makes 0 sense

Tristan Jarry’s cap hit fits into that perfectly.

 

[Gravity]

Gotta think Sens get Knies now.

 

[Boomstick]

Insane. Bobrovsky going to stay for league minimum now? Lol. He'll be 38 in September. Can't see there being much of a market for him to get his 6 years $6 million.
Unless Zito has some more magic to get Hellebuyck.

 

[Cats2TheCup]

Panthers finna be so hated next year

*Every year

They don’t need to draft anymore. They will now forever be the prime destination for every star who wants to finally win something.

Even McStars.

No that pick went for Marchand.

Teams always help. Good GMs get out of these situations all the time. Plus Rodrigues is a huge net positive at 3 mil. Hes a good player.

 

[HomeAndHome]

They got a taste for winning and want to gtfo out of loser teams

Hey now, he was the leader of that loser team

 

[Linkens Mastery]

I'm guessing the Blues are about to trade Keith to Florida too since he's on the Blues payroll.
