I really think we should make Formenton available for a top 4 RHD. Top 4 RHDs are so rare, while I like Formenton, he is replaceable

I feel especially after giving away brown Formenton is a must keep. Having a deep top 9 forward group is crucial to being a successful team.

At this point the trade pieces we should be using is some of our prospects like Greig, Sokolov, Jarventie, Thomson, JBD and possibly our first with a top 10 protection + other picks in order to get the top 4 d and rid ourselves of Zaitsev

The PP usually has two units so Klingberg would be a great addition. It would certainly raise the fun level with more goals being scored.

I think we should help Vegas out and take Shea Theodore off their hands for future considerations
Yes. Give them the FC coming from the Toronto Murray trade! :)

Brown is not the "in color" around these parts!

I don’t mind Klingberg but I think we need a shutdown pair more than anything, so a defensive dman is preferable.

Not many options though. If they like Marino they should just trade for him.

You might be onto something with Vegas here. They need to clear 1.4 Mil just to get under the cap and they still have to sign Nic Hague, Kolesar and Roy.

It might be an opportunity for us to swoop in and get a guy like Shea Theodore for cheaper than we normally could, I don't think we could get him for free cheap, but cheaper none the less.

Would people hate it if we got Petry?

he was really good two years ago

Would be a great option on the 2nd pair, but don’t think he’d move from Montreal. He had a late season resurgence under MSL - but at this stage he’s a very hot/cold player

I think for the first time as a Senators fan I'm not at all envious of the acquisitions any other team has made around the free agency period. Like I look at Carolina bringing in Burns, Pacioretty and Kase - solid moves, players I would have been happy for Ottawa to grab at least one of in years past - and my reaction is "Cool. We got DeBrincat and Giroux."

Of formenton is traded then I guarantee he was part of the whole hockey Canada thing

He seems to fit our identity on the ice to a t and something would have to be rotten for dorion to move him
You'd think the receiving team would do their due diligence and have some clause about that like fitness or injury clauses though

I disagree. I don't agree with him but that does not take away from his accomplishments on the ice.
Going out of your way to be a propagandist for a horrific Dictator is bad...really bad. Particularly in light of the war in Ukraine and the thousand of war crimes being alleged and committed. Its so bad that it overshadows anything he has done or will do on the ice.

If he gets the record, he gets the record. No one can take that away from him. Celebrating the man...no thanks.

Looking at the guys we've been linked to/hoped to acquire, am I wrong for thinking they are good comparables for Zub and he should be in the 4.25-4.75 range?

I think a top 4 of:

Chabot-Zub
Sanderson-Klingberg

would be pretty unreal personally, though I would be worried about the term and dollars for Klingberg
