Speculation: Mark Stone Megathread Part 4, Vegas emerges as favorite per Friedman

[Michoulicious]

Winger VS centre evens it out a little

Mark Stone is so much better than Duchesne, it is not close.

Position is not important here.

 

[Michoulicious]

Roslovic, Stanley, 2nd. Petan can be thrown in to help round out a roster in Ottawa.

That is horrendous. No first, no Stone.

 

[mattydamon]

Lou's what, 80? He doesn't care about A-level prospects, he doesn't even buy green bananas. He'll land Stone. He wants the cup.

lost it at 'doesn't even buy green bananas', +1

 

[Sparky93]

The opposite argument can easily be presented though.

Not really, all the pressure is on Dorion.

 

[Evanc23]

Waiting until the last hour and losing out on other good players is to big of a risk for a rental that most teams can not chance.

The only reason teams are going to miss out on him is because they're all offering the equivalent of Logan Stanley, Nic Petan and a first, and that's noones fault but their own

Dorion easily had a first, a fourth, Lemmy, Petan and Perreault for an unsigned Stone. Jets might even have thrown in a second. That whole deal is gone now.

I've never heard (read) this before, but it's hilarious.

 

[Upgrayedd]

At least a few of us Sens fans can get a few laughs looking at the seemingly childlike reactions and threats lobbed at the current team and its fans, some of them legit read like "im taking my ball and going home", in this trying time we appreciate your efforts.

In all reality most insults fall on deaf ears or in agreement, making fun of the Sens current or future state as well as their current personnel no longer affects most hardcore fans to be honest, this has been 2+ years now of worst case scenarios over and over again which we discuss on the reg on our board!

How could he ever pass that up?

Devastated.

 

[Sensinitis]

Not really, all the pressure is on Dorion.

By all means, present it.

From my POV Winnipeg, one potential buyer, has already turned elsewhere.

Exactly. One potential buyer turned elsewhere and acquired a (lesser) asset, so that puts pressure on the other teams like Nashville, Calgary, Vegas, even Dallas now that Zucc is injured.

We're an hour and change away from the deadline, so a team is bound to crumble and pony up Dorion's ask or close to it. We'll see what happens! Playing the long game is definitely the right thing to do imo.

 

[TheJadePipe]

Roslov

That is horrendous. No first, no Stone.

Roslovic is a first

 

[PromisedLand]

Stone gets traded to the highest offer that sens get; no way they gonna let him go the ufa market after their lottery pick is going to avs

 

[Stej]

That is horrendous. No first, no Stone.

That’s cool. Hope he stays out east.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

We don't know what Chevy offered Ottawa, but they seemed very serious about doing a deal. Then Dorion leaves Winnipeg and there are reports of other teams' offers for Stone. That just seems like negotiating in bad faith, considering the lengths they were going to (negotiating an extension, etc). Chevy probably offered something fair, but I'm guessing Dorion turned it around on the others to get more. That is in his right, but when you're so close to the deadline, that's not a game you should be playing if you're not prepared to lose.

Eugene will be seen at the Rideau Carlton casino at 2:50pm letting it all ride on black to get Stone that sweet sweet bonus cash.

 

[GrandmaSlices51631]

• 2019 1st
• Kiefer Bellows
• 2020 Cond. 1st (re-sign)

could it be the deal?

 

[Little Psycho]

Stone holding up all the other trades.

 

[JoeThorntonsRooster]

I would be ecstatic if Stone stayed and didn’t go to a contender.

 

[KnockHobbler]

Eugene will be seen at the Rideau Carlton casino at 2:50pm letting it all ride on black to get Stone that sweet sweet bonus cash.

I hear he can only afford the blind horse with the three legs

 

[CupInSIX]

• 2019 1st
• Kiefer Bellows
• 2020 Cond. 1st (re-sign)

could it be the deal?

That's probably better than the current offers Dorion is fielding.

 

[Duffalufagus]

People honestly think Dorion has hand here? He is getting squeezed and the return is almost certainly going to be less than it would have been last night. He has an hour to make a deal and the other teams know he has to do something.

 

[Shrimper]

Was thinking what the best Pittsburgh could do would be;

1st, Maatta, Simon + prospect.

Probably not enough compared to other offers.

 

[Michoulicious]

Roslov
Roslovic is a first

For now, is a 22 years old 3rd line winger with potential to grow.

Ottawa has an amazing drafting track record. They want their first round pick.

Roslovic, first + 2nd would have been ok, I think.

 

[PeterSidorkiewicz]

I would be ecstatic if Stone stayed and didn’t go to a contender.

He must have hit on black!
