Proposal: - Brady Tkachuk to New York Rangers

A prominent Sens board insider has been floating Laf+Kakko+Lindgren = 9.225M Tkachuk+JBD= 9.010714 Could there be legs to this? Would both sides do it?

Prominent Sens insider is the most egregious part of the whole thing.

Yep. Had a good chortle over that one. There’s certainly some “characters” in here. LOL.

Lindgren is awful no f***ing thank you. Kakko, Schneider, Perreault, and a 1st for Tkachuk and JBD, or Lafreniere, Schneider, and a 1st for Tkachuk and JBD.

No way the Rangers do that. Heck, I wouldn't do Laf for Tkachuk if I was them. That would be fantastic for us though

The first one makes more sense but this is more a rebuild package, need to trade Brady for quality. Maybe trade him for Marner. Leafs would do that and while people would complain about Marner and the playoffs, I mean we are desperate to get there at this point.

1. Michael Amadio (2.6M x 3) + Travis Hamonic (1.1M x 1) + 2025 2nd round pick to ANA for Trevor Zegras (5.75M x 2)

2. Claude Giroux @50% (3.25M x 1) + Nick Cousins (800K x 1) to COL for Calum Ritchie (950K x 3) + 2026 1st round pick

3. Brady Tkachuk (8.2M x 2) + Nick Jensen (4.05M x 2) to LA for Quinton Byfield (6.25M x 5) + Brandt Clarke (865K x 2) + 2026 1st round pick

These deals are very lopsided in Ottawa's favor

1. Amadio might already have negative value, paying a 3rd to "get rid" of joseph and then sign that contract was a Dorion-level bad move. Hamonic has no value as well. Zegras for a 2nd? No chance

2. Giroux and Jensen are good vets but Ritchie is a top prospect, a highly competitive 2-way forward with skill. Plus that 1st... That said, it's the closest among the 3 proposals

3. No chance Tkachuk could return Byfield and Clarke. I mean, if Staios can pull that out, I'd build a statue for him

What does Nashvilles prospects look like? Not what we could use, just what they got? No picks either. They got lots of those.

He is the best player who is better than him, he has led this team in scoring 4 of the last 5 yrs & seems to lead this team in almost every other category. If you want to shake things up trade Stutzle.

Lead the team in scoring, and has somehow been a minus every year but 1.

I'd settle for less goals for, and way less against. Guy can't f***ing play defense to save his life. 40 goals don't matter if you're on the ice for 50 against.

It's time to get ridiculous.

Alright. Here you go. I need help with the details. It's Sunday and people are doing Sunday things, so they can help later. I read somewhere that Nashville is looking for a LD.

Nashville - Chabot from Ottawa
Ottawa - Karlsson from Pitt, Lauzon from Nash
Pitts - Zub from Ottawa, pick/prospect (a pick and prospect or pick ×2, it would be Zub and 2 things) from Nash
4th team - retains 2m on Karl and gets a pick/prospect package from Nash/Pitts/Ott

Ottawa - in - Lauzon and Karlsson
-out - Chabot, Zub, pick/prospect

Nash - in - Chabot
-out - Lauzon, picks/prospects

Pitts - in - Zub, picks/prospects
- out - Karlsson, picks/prospects

4th team - in - 2m retained on Karlsson, picks/prospect

The devil would be what picks in what year, who the prospect is.

This is just for fun. Don't be mad.

Also as much as I dislike Gallagher, I wish we had some players playing like him.

It's funny, he's second among fwds at 5v5 in hits and 1st in blocked shots, he's also 2nd in penalties drawn. Not stats you'd typically associate with playing like a cupcake.

He's certainly not a physical force, but I don't see him shying away from contact the way he was when he didn't quite trust the shoulder.

Frankly, Norris and Giroux are perfectly slotted on the 2nd line in theory, Tkachuk, Stutzle and Batherson are absolutely first liners

The problem is there is absolutely no depth behind them. Pinto and Greig haven't progressed at all (and actually regressed) and no one is even 3rd line worthy. So we're missing a Top-6 forward and our 3rd line is below average at the moment.

If Zub and Sanderson starts playing much better like they can, our defensive squad is fine too.

All that said, the problem is really making more saves and converting on more chances, 2nd worst PDO at 5v5 again...

The Kyle Turris trade was 2576 days ago, the Sens have been a complete mess since then. And more days to come.
