Garrioch saying that we are kicking tires on a Dman.

Wonder if PO Joseph from Penguins is an option.

I'm ordering my Tyler Myers jersey now so I don't have to wait for the trade to be completed.

Oh god don’t will that into existence

Just embrace it; you know it's coming.

I wonder how badly concussed Brannstrom is. That must be a part of it.

 

[NyQuil]

If it’s Tyler Myers, I wonder how concussed Dorion is.

That's a tall order

Not enough to be LTIR but then again they don't need to do that since Chabot on LTIR is plenty.

 

[Xspyrit]

Wait... why are you guys talking about the Chaos Girafe?

 

[SpezDispenser]

Not enough to be LTIR but then again they don't need to do that since Chabot on LTIR is plenty.

Not yet maybe? I don't really know if there's any benefit to doing it yet.

What about Boqvist for Kubalik? Change of scenery deal for both sides. Columbus may want a late pick, but at the trade deadline when cap opens up a bit, they may project that they have a higher chance of getting a late pick for than they would for Boqvist because Kubalik will be a pending UFA.

He's played his way off of the Blue Jackets, and I can't imagine there is any trade market for him right now because of his contract.

If we assume Brannstrom is out long-term and may not be qualified, he's basically a cost-controlled Brannstrom replacement this year and next year. If he is really terrible, the Senators could buy him out at almost no cap consequence.

SEASON	INITIAL BASE SALARY	INITIAL CAP HIT	SIGNING BONUS	BUYOUT COST	POST-BUYOUT EARNINGS	SAVINGS	CAP HIT ( CBJ)
2024-25	$3,200,000	$2,600,000	$0	$533,334	$533,334	$2,666,666	-$66,666
2025-26	$0	$0	$0	$533,334	$533,334	-$533,334	$533,334
TOTAL	$3,200,000	$2,600,000	$0	$1,066,667	$1,066,667	$2,133,333	$466,668

More dead buyout money yaaaay

 

[Big Muddy]

Has there been any updates on Brannstrom, particularly with his expected return or how serious the concussion issue is?

I've not seen any recent news. Thanks for any feedback.

 

[BankStreetParade]

If Brannstrom's gonna be out for that long wouldn't they put him on LTIR?

 

[Alf Silfversson]

If Brannstrom's gonna be out for that long wouldn't they put him on LTIR?

Probably waiting to see how he progresses. They can always put him on LTIR retroactively to his last game if there is no, or slow, progress.

 

[Big Muddy]

This is true. It just seems very quiet on the news & feedback, so starting to wonder if Brannstrom's situation is more serious.

Can’t be good. He’s gonna miss quite a bit of time

What about trading for Flames Nikita Zadorov? The Flames are likely looking to make a move! The Sens could use help on D with all the injuries they have right now.

I would do - things… for Zadorov. We were interested when he was with Chicago.

Interesting side note, we have two scouts at the flames game last night.

No chance with his cap hit.

 

[senswon]

No chance with his cap hit.

Who else would we want from Calgary. 2 scouts seems like we're interested in somebody there

He would be an unreal add, but ya, no cap room for his salary.

It's way too early in the season to read anything into which scouts are where. Their job is to attend these games.

 

[Micklebot]

Might have been there to see someone on the stars, who knows.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

I don't love picking off of Calgary cuz their guys are either up for UFA in a year or two, or they're signed for way too long. And equal dollars needing to go out makes any move difficult.
