Speculation: Sens need to trade a core player

[Pinkfloyd]

Couture’s 3 team trade list ain’t gonna have Ottawa on it.

Couture is an LTIR candidate for those that may need the cap. He is probably going to approve any trade because he’s probably finished. The Sharks can go above the cap by 8 mil because of him but probably want to avoid it while rebuilding.

I’d want Chabot more than I’d want Tkachuk but neither are likely for the Sharks.

Blake would hurt, already a solid depth scoring option 20 games into his career and I see breakout potential in him. Would have to be a lesser prospect or mid round pick in addition to Svech and Blake if anything.

Lol tbh Brady for Svech is more than fair. Like Svech might be the better player if it weren't for injuries.

But Brady is so overrated so I like that teams will overpay because he's a "unicorn".

Is he actually LTIR-retired tho? And is the salary ensured?

He hasn’t skated since January and there aren’t really plans to. He’s not on LTIR in San José because they aren’t spending to the cap yet. I’m not certain about the insurance status though I’d expect any 8 year deal to be insured.

Staois and Green Baumer is a bad combination at GM and Coaching so if anything ownership should legitimize the front office staff and coaching then try to get a couple vets who help stabilize the core and culture.
No offense to Perron Jensen and Giroux who were all great players at one time and still have some miles but they need to spend that cap money on legitimate needle movers not guys that are 34 to 37 yrs old. Giroux was a good move but turning Chychrun and 8m in cap into Jensen Perron was a fireable offense for a team that should have at minimum a 3-5 yr outlook and should have been targeting players that fit that next step and beyond......and i like both guys but Perron after last year at 4 million x 2 and Jensen at 34 for Chychrun? Those are critical decisions that went really bad.
I would be terrified with that front office

Tell me you haven’t watched the Sens, without telling me you haven’t watched the Sens.

False, Brady gets you more.
