Confirmed Signing with Link: [OTT] F Shane Pinto re-signs with the Senators (2 years, $3.75M AAV)

[TheNewEra]

all i have learned in the last 2 days is that the media literally has no contacts within the sens management as of right now

thats actually very refreshing

 

[KevinRedkey]

Crazy that the guy who was going to have to leave to be able to sign Pinto was the guy who had to leave in order to be able to sign Pinto. Still need 3 forwards and a defenseman for just under 4M. Good luck?

Is it normal for players demanding trades to sign deals?

Perhaps if they are RFAs who only have Europe or getting a ridiculous offer sheet that is too rich for a team to match.

 

[Clamshells]

Lebrun confirmed shit posting hack

 

[Speatleysson]

Yeh that or lies. Like Patty Kane to Toronto. Or Ohtani to Toronto. You know it well.

I heard that kawhi is still on a plane to Toronto.. its just stuck in a holding pattern for a little while longer

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Friedman calling this a stalemate when it's 2nd day of free agency lol.

Stalemate was probably the word used by Lewis Gross, Pinto’s agent. The same agent who had Nylander hold out until December back in 2018.

Feel like this doesn’t rule out a trade but rather guarantees Ottawa will get assets back. 2 years for a guy like this seems fishy.

Sens were reportedly trying to bridge him for months since the cap is tight. Still has two more RFA years after this contract ends.

That's a good deal for Ottawa imo , it's almost like its too good to be true , are normal logical hockey operations starting to resume now? Wonder if he sticks around or gets traded

 

[Seanaconda]

I thought he was as demanding to leave.

On that note, send him home so he can play for the team he grew up following.

He signed such a good deal so he would be worth more to other teams

 

[joestevens29]

its called click bait. and it works

Who needs click bait this time of year lol

Hack "reporters" trying to make a name for themselves.

But changing out spare parts for similar spare parts (aside from Ulmark) doesn't really inspire confidence. Especially since Ulmark doesn't come with an extension in place.

This is Staios’ first summer and he has a new coaching staff, a new starting goalie, a new partner for Chabot and is changing out most of the bottom 6.

IMO, that inspires quite a bit of confidence and shows a new path. If the team struggles yet again next year, I’d imagine some bigger core pieces will be on the move.

But what did you expect? A Tkachuk trade?

Gaudreau also sat out until training camp coming off his ELC

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

Pump the breaks, guys… I’ve heard from league sources that Pinto’s agent and Staois havent talked contract #s in several hours. Not a good sign given that they only have 800 days to get his next deal worked out. An offer sheet seems like a real possibility if Staois doesnt get this settled by mid-2026. The clock is ticking and it might make sense to trade him for Kaliyev while the option is still on the table.

How are you going to a deny a young stud his opportunity to play for his childhood team? They let Adam Fox and John Tavares do it.

 

[SpezDispenser]

At least fans can look at this as something management didn't completely f*** up this off-season.

Interesting. I thought they acquired a Vezina winning goalie last week.

 

[WhatTheDuck]

I bet he won't get traded now

The sens weren’t even close to making playoffs last year and they traded a first rounder for one year of an aging (although still great) goalie.

That's a god awful trade with zero foresight. Ullmark likely won't resign unless it's a huge overpayment. It's the duchene trade all over again.

They traded pick #25 in the 2024 draft.

Most people were under the assumption it would cost something close to that pick just to dump Korpisalo.

This may blow your mind, but thats actually how age works. In all instances.

I think all your other #s are right but MacEwen’s cap hit is $775k, not $835k

You're right. I had someone else at 835 and I guess I forgot to change the cap hit.

I'll change it. Thanks
