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

[PlayOn]

Robertson wouldn’t go to Seattle for 15M a year damn

 

[Emerica]

Robertson wouldn’t go to Seattle for 15M a year damn

He wants that Kaprizov contract

 

[PlayOn]

He wants that Kaprizov contract

I’m looking at where teams are with the cap and he’s gonna end up on a real bad team with these kind of demands lol.

 

[senswon]

7 years from now?

Lol I amend my suggestion to would you send 4x 1st round picks + for Draisaital for to play with Timmy

 

[Qward]

We aren't making anymore deals till February, are we?

 

[Ouroboros]

Robertson wouldn’t go to Seattle for 15M a year damn

That's the equivalent of 17.5M in Ottawa. I doubt he had even the slightest interest in coming here, but that kinda puts some context on the type of coin we'd have had to offer him to even get a sniff.

I'd guess Robertson has a destination in mind and Seattle ain't it.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Damn.

I suspect we got outbid by teams with more expendable assets.

Blues have 4 1st round picks after Armstrong robbed WSH, STL and NYI in the Kyrou, Faulk and Schenn trades, and Anaheim has a big young defensive RD to offer.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Robertson wouldn’t go to Seattle for 15M a year damn

Could it be in part because Seattle sucks?

 

[DueDiligence]

Robertson wouldn’t go to Seattle for 15M a year damn

Seattle is a bad team. He wants to go to a good team and will so for less money.

 

[Hale The Villain]

Doesn't want to go to a failed franchise like Seattle, even for 15M.

Respect.

 

[Karelia Hurricanes]

Seattle is a bad team. He wants to go to a good team and will so for less money.

Yet he turned down Dallas' offer.

 

[Silencio]

Oh yeah we really aren't getting Robertson now.

If the Rags land McTavish maybe we make a play for Lafreniere.

 

[Cat Dad Sixty Nine]

Ducks can get Fowler back from the Blues!

 

[CornerStone61]

Seattle is buns

According to this calculator its 16.1M in Ottawa.

Why would NYR add McTavish only to trade Laf?

100%. My guess is he ends up signing for 14M wherever he goes. But I still think there are not a ton of good teams that can do that, so I’m curious to see where he lands.

 

[Hale The Villain]

In his latest article Garrioch reiterates Staios doesn't want to use #25 and that we're going hard after Ristolainen

Ya, I think he wants his cake and eat it too. Salary and a competitive team, not just a high salary on a team headed nowhere.

 

[OttawaSenators11]

Disagree with that
The reason you trade for mctavish is for him to reach his potential like cozens. You aren’t trading for mctavish for his current play

Nothing suggests right now that McTavish is that guy who is going to improve

Cozens unlike McTavish actually had good years in the NHL prior to getting traded to Ottawa

 

[JackieDaytona]

Yet he turned down Dallas' offer.

He probably feels owed from the last contract and being deprioritized vs other players there. He won’t take a discount and they only have 12m to sign him and others. It’s just not going to work.

Barf. Thankfully boo-boo is disconnected.

The funny thing is from a hockey perspective we’d be a really great fit for him and he’d turn us into a real contender.

Which is why i don’t get the resistance when it’s said that Florida and Vegas operate on easy mode. Must be nice to be able to add a star player whenever you need one!

Lame. I'd rather spend assets on another forward. Our defence is fine.

Mctavish was good the year before

He missed camp this year which cooked him and needs to work on his foot speed

He will improve elsewhere he has a lot of potential
