Someone without term. Dvorak is not a fit.
Damn!No chance.
Extra two years is a deal breaker.
No. Needs to be a UFA or a cheap contract so we can re-sign some important playersDvorak?
I brought him up on the Sens board, if the ask is low enough, it is likely a fit. Ottawa probably has backup offers on guys like Suter with low picks in case no one else can clear space and offer something better.Pius suter would fit
They signed Brassard in the offseason as a 13th forward. Then they lost their #1 center in the first few games and Brassard stepped up big time. He's not primarily playing center for Ottawa, he's playing LW and helping with some draws. Right now, Ottawa is looking to upgrade Gambrell on the third line to give them a better shot at the playoffs.Didn't they already pick up Brassard for this purpose?
The only reason I'm hesitant about guys like Grant and Namestnikov is that their contracts are so reasonable, they should return something decent in the way of assets from someone else.. Whereas Ottawa is likely bargain shopping after having to dump Zaitsev and acquiring Chychrun.Probably gonna get Derek Grant or something

Sens ship Brannstrom to a third team to recoup a pick or prospect.
What if Montreal retained 50%? Dvorak's caphit would be 2.225. Would probably cost a 1st rounder then though.No. Needs to be a UFA or a cheap contract so we can re-sign some important players
