Rumor: Trade Rumors/Proposals/Free Agents 2018-2019

[Sens of Anarchy]

Where was it reported Vegas wouldn’t give us Suzuki? Do you mean Cody Glass?

I think it was Cody Glass and a Suzuki

 

[Masked]

Do we have a source on Edmonton being on his nogo list

Edmonton is the reason why the NHL has no-trade clauses. If the player doesn't have a connection to northern Alberta, just assume that Edmonton is on their no-trade list.

That's a sweet-ass ride man, I wouldn't want to give it up either.

We have zero cap issues. By the time Ryan becomes an issue his contract will be expired, just ride it out and wait for the kids to mature.

Buddy....Have you not been paying attention?

Trading Ryan has nothing to do with the cap, it's all about Melnyk saving some cash. Hell, that's been the entire raison d'être of the Senators these last few years.

Euge is perfectly willing to lower EK's return just so he can get rid of Ryan's hefty contract.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

VGK weren't willing to move Suzuki for Karlsson, not without an extension, it would be huge if Karlsson would negotiate an extension with another team but 0% chance of that happening.

So.....why won't Erik negotiate an extension with anyone?

 

[Sensung]

So.....why won't Erik negotiate an extension with anyone?

Maybe he only wants to sign with one team...





the Sens.

Rainy September 11, the day that Erik Karlsson gets traded

The one bright side to this is that Melnyk isn't exactly a guy who is careful with his words, the truth or knowing what the eff is going on in general. I'd be much more concerned if it was a guy like Bryan Murray saying these things on behalf of the team.

 

[Tuna99]

wow, Bobby Ryan's goal this year is to play in the top 6 - is it really this bad?

He’s now the president and was sitting at our draft table, I don’t recall at least the draft table stuff happening during murray’s Tenure

Not if the team we are trading Karlsson to has to take him as well!

Alex Chiasson is on a PTO so will make about 900K this year if he sticks - Chiasson had 9 goals last year in 61 games, Bobby Ryan had 11 goals in 62 games.

Last year Chiasson had 12 goals in 81 games, Ryan had 13 in 62.


I'd say these guys are comparable, both big and slow and soft, only difference is Ryan made $15 million USD and Chiasson made $1.8million USD in the last 2 years - no wonder no ones want Ryan when you can have Chiasson for 900k

To Seattle: The Ottawa Senators

To Ottawa: The Jerry Zucker group

Complete rebuild in one trade - and Seattle goes on to win the cup...

 

[Bileur]

How does the Hoffman trade fit into the rebuild?

While I agree with you, thats what makes the Hoffman trade so unbelievably confusing.

It doesn't, we are up shit creek without a paddle, and we are being spoon fed lies and anything that will make people think we are doing something productive.

Man, come on if you think they are comparable you struggle to evaluate hockey talent. Also being incredibly selective with your sample sizes. Did you watch the sens run two years ago?

sample size examples and you are talking about a 15 game run Ryan went on 2 years ago, c'mon.

It's just to point out that if you want a soft, large RW you can just pay Chiasson to play that roll and it doesn't have to cost you $7.5 million

Ryan has more skill in his pinky than Chiasson does in his entire body. Ryan has 505 NHL points Chiasson has has 124. Ryan can actually make players miss and has elite skill.

His pinky has been mangled so the poster you quoted has a point

Ryan has 24 goals in his last 2 seasons and Chiasson has 21.

Ryan’s overpaid. We all know. But don’t start putting these two in the same bucket lmao.

Who do you think scores more goals this year? I'll take Chiasson. We should revisit this in 82 games. Is there a way to tag this post?

God I hope so.

Kind of ballsy, Chiasson's best ever year is tied with Ryan's 2nd worst, both of Ryan's seasons were in 20 less games
