Proposal: Free agency edition Trade Rumours/Proposals - 2025/26 Part II

[Micklebot]

Difference is Colorado had to trade him, Vancouver doesn't really need to trade DeBrusk.

Why did they have to trade him? They could have made it work, or moved out different guys like Roy. They made a choice, that's all.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

That’s barely more than what Jensen was making (with a lower salary cap) and Spence is younger and better than healthy Jensen was for us. Guy has been improving every year.

It's also only his ask from the way it's worded. Seems like something in the 3 year x 5 mil range could end up as a reasonable middle ground.

Not sure, I guess they want to bring in someone else and needed the cap space to do it.

$5.5 million for 4-5 years is a fair deal for Spence. It's not like he's asking for $6.5-7 million aav for 7-8 years smh.

Sign him staiost

 

[IpsoPostFacto]

Приезжайте в Оттаву, братья — здесь холодно, как дома.

that's the pitch to Swedes.

 

[Big Muddy]

I doubt Nichushkin was going to waive his NTC to come here.

Also we're not getting McTavish straight up for Spence. If anything it'd probably be Spence+25.

Yes, its probably going to be Zetterlund & a 3rd.

 

[DJB]

I’ll be so upset for Zetterlund and Eklund they seem like such bros lol

Ok, that's a choice, just likeoving DeBrusk would be a choice

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

oh yeah youre right

 

[Cat Dad Sixty Nine]

I hope we're not trading for McTavish. He's another Grieg but without the speed or defense. They both are 23 and both just put up 31 even strength points. Oh and he makes a lot more too.

 

[BondraTime]

They might as well keep Spence because he likely carries little trade value

Him at 5 mill isn’t too appealing though, so whatever value they can get is probably what Staios is looking for, right or wrong

he is much more skilled than Greig

 

[ottawagm]

I think the prices seem high because the UFA market seems bad this year.

We could probably get a lower 1st for Spence from a team that can't find a RD.

What do you think his trade value is?

Honestly, the only things I've seen is a report that a trade built around him for McTavish was being worked on, and a NYI writer speculating whether they should offer up 13oa for him like they did with Romanov. Are those unreasonable? Idk, I would have told you 4th oa and a 2nd for Byram was crazy not too long ago but here we are.

Idk what his value realistically is, but I think there's bound to be some interest. RHD that can move the puck are coveted. He's undersized but he's looked good when relied upon

Islanders...? Maybe not a first. Heineman?

 

[Daffy]

Is that all that this twitter account does? Repost news from days ago to generate views?

This account is a big time liberal douchebag

 

[LeProspector]

McTavish to NYR?

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Looks like McTavish to NYR

I think his trade value as a guy on a cheap deal is late 1st-ish type Campoli deal. Cheap guy that plays bottom pair and can move up if needed.

I think his value, and his league wide appeal, goes down considerably on a multi year, 5+ million dollar deal he’d be looking for. 13th would be absolutely absurd, not sure any GM would consider that, though wouldn’t be the first time I was way off on something

 

[Mingus Dew]

These trash teams just will not rebuild lol.

I’m guessing it’s Schneider going the other way?

 

[OttawaSenators11]

NYR apparently doing us a big favour

 

[Senscore]

McTavish to NYR is a complete waste of everyone's time.

They're still gonna be shit

 

[Mingus Dew]

NYR apparently doing us a big favour

?

I was fine with MacTavish for the right price. We’ll see what they ended up paying.
