Proposal: Free agency edition Trade Rumours/Proposals [MOD - Stay on Topic] 5

Retaining on Korpisalo almost seems pointless when you can just buy him out.

If retaining about 1.35, then breaks even, and don’t have 4 more years left after.

Seems like a much better option.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Third team has to be cap related in some respect.

Either a big money player like Chabot or Norris is being sent somewhere, they are taking Korpisalo, or they are retaining on Ullmark because we don't have the cap flexibility to take his full hit and still fill other positions and we cannot move Korpisalo..

 

[Crosside]

Very exciting to hear that we are in the end of days for Chychrun, Brannstrom, Bernard-Docker and Hamonic.

And Kastelic

Steve Staios is open for business as Senators prepare for NHL draft in Vegas

With the first round of the National Hockey League draft set for Friday night at The Sphere in Vegas, league executives told Postmedia on Sunday that Staios is trying to remake the club's roster.

t.co

This sentence made no sense to me as I’m not sure what one has to do with the other:

While the Senators offered Korpisalo in return to the Bruins when the two sides spoke in March, Boston is in need of a centre.

Still kinda think there's an outside chance that this deal ends up being Norris for Ullmark as the primary pieces. That sort of ties in with them needing a center.

If Ullmark signs for 7M it ends up being close to cap neutral.

 

[SensFactor]

And Kastelic

Yes please

Maybe a 3-way deal with Carolina? Chychrun to CAR, Necas to BOS, Ullmark to OTT?

Obviously, other picks, prospects, or roster players could be included as needed, but they would be the base of it.

I could see moving down to 12 to unload Korpisalo, but no way we trade 7 down to 12 then move 12 too.

Dorion-esq!

 

[DJB]

Left shot not really a fit spend the little amount of cap on a RD

He often plays his offside

 

[SensFactor]

As per Garrioch's article, Sens have considered Gibson too.

 

[Cosmix]

Can likely still afford Tanev with Skinner

I think the Senators are confused and going after the wrong Tanev!

 

[DJB]

Come in peace,

What do you feel the return is going to be IF he get traded to Ottawa

Chychrun, 25, Forsberg for a signed Ullmark , Peeke, Lauko

 

[Golden_Jet]

He often plays his offside

So did Chychurn,
Need to solve goalie, an actual right shot D, that can play top 4, and Pinto. Then see remaining cap.

De Haan would be way down the list of priorities.

 

[Butchy Dakkar]

Sorry thought I would share what been posted on the B's board

https://x.com/i/web/status/1804951240821850594

I want to like this, but it really depends on what we are giving up

 

[LiseL]

Similar to my thoughts but I’d also make 39OV available, maybe with Boston sending back a 4th or 5th


If Vegas is in heavy on Ullmark, it may be in both Vegas’ and Boston’s best interest to involve Ottawa & Thompson/Hill (likely Hill)

Ullmark nixed L/A because they're out west, why would he want to go to Vegas?

 

[Micklebot]

Hopefully they came to their senses and stayed the F away...

Pump the breaks.

Apparently the negotiation between Sens and Ullmark is the holdup, so it could still be a day or 2 before anything happens.

7 mil for Ullmark is a fair price, especially with a rising cap, so I hope Andlauer isn't penny-pinching.

Well... on the bright side, I can stop hitting refresh and actually get some shit done around the house...

Hope they can work something out at a reasonable dollar and term.

 

[DJB]

Why would you waste time finalizing a deal if you don't know the guy will waive?

Just seems like a recipe for getting bent over

Because if you don’t have a deal with another team you wouldn’t ask your player to waive .

What’s lost on HF boards is that ownership and management like to keep players happy and those relationships are real and an underrated aspect of trade negotiations.

You wouldn’t ask a player to waive unless you are close to a deal otherwise you are just stressing the player and pissing him off

Just to add context.
It was apparently pretty close earlier in the weekend in the sense that he has waived and something with Boston has been agreed to which is why I think all these rumours are popping up.

I don’t think there is a legitimate 3 way trade happening, but I think Ottawa is confident enough to trade back with Philly and get another asset to flip to Boston.

Makes me think they are high on Sennecke.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

7 mil for Ullmark is a fair price, especially with a rising cap, so I hope Andlauer isn't penny-pinching.

If 7 mil is really just the ask from his camp then you try to grind it down to 6.5. My guess is wnds up being 6.8.

This makes sense when the player isn't aware they are being moved, but far less so when they fully know they will be moved. Relationships go both ways, and it doesn't do you much good to waste another teams time if the player isn't going to waive, it just pisses everyone involved off especially when a player is hearing his name in the media going to a team on his list and nobody bothered checking with him

This is sounding to similar to the Boston insider’s info, that has us trading 12th to Boston…

If Ullmark signs for 7M it ends up being close to cap neutral.

That would be an absolute coup.

I would honestly trade away Norris to get his cap off the books.

They wouldn’t be confident trading back if they wanted Sennecke I wouldn’t think, chances of him being at 12 is nearly nil.

If pieces from the Philly trade are needed the deal won’t be going through for another week.
