Had you just picked up Tyson Jost on waivers, you wouldn’t need another center.

Dude has more points than our entire bottom 6. Same with Tolvenen.

God our pro scouting sucks.

Tkachuk-Stutzle-Giroux
Debrincat-Pinto-Batherson
Tolvenen-Jost-Joseph
Crrokshank-Greig-Gauthier

If money-in, money-out was the policy, no wonder we didn't take either guy. Would have added approx. 2mil each.
 
Acquiring Nic Jensen (with an extension) and Nic Dowd from the Capitals would be a solid, smart move.

Jensen could slide in nicely as a #4 and presumable would come in at $3.5-4M on a ~3 year deal. Dowd is signed for 2 more seasons at $1.3M and would be a significant improvement in the bottom 6 over Gambrell, Kelly, etc, and could take on the lead PK minutes from Motte and Watson.

Would also be interested in van Riemsdyk if Jensen is too expensive. Another unremarkable but solid player.

And just go ahead and add Charlie Lindgren to be our backup. One stop shopping.

Dowd is intriguing but not sure they would trade him. They have 7 forwards slated to make over 5mil next year, plus Carlson & Kuemper also making over 5mil. They have $65mil committed to 9 forwards, two goalies and ONE DMan. Dowd brings them about 30pts per 82 for cheap. Unless they are fully rebuilding (which doesn't seem like the plan at all) I think Dowd would require real value to acquire.

You are at least a 2nd and additional good piece off here

So the last 20 games this year is your concern? The trades being discussed have long term implications, and this season is pretty close to a write off in terms of playoffs

Of course Pinto will get better, if not, he wouldn't have value in a trade for a guy like Chychrun, who isn't much older himself. But Chychrun is a long piece that will help us now and in the future, it would be different if we were talking about adding Patrick Kane, but this is adding someone who fits the core group, he's younger than Chabot, same age as Batherson, a year older than Norris and DeBrincat.

It's a lateral move for these 20 games to move one of Pinto or Grieg. It's the long term implications I don't like. Both of them are going to he really good players and will peaking at the same time as Stutzle and Sanderson. That's when the teams cup window opens up. Not now. If at that time they still need a d man then you can move one at their peak value. The sens cup windows is quite clearly not now.

Also right now you're paying peak pricing for immediate help. Sens aren't in a position to make moves like that. They arent a contender have bad long term injuries. They arent even a playoff team rn. They also have no prospect depth or picks. It's sad given how bad they've been. If Dorion had managed the assets properly they would have a gluttony of picks and prospects to make a move for someone. But he has tried trash bandaid fixes for the most part and the sens have nothing to show for it. They should be sellers. For when the team is right.

Friedman on radio again “ I mentioned Jensen for Ottawa today, now I wonder if Trevor Van Reimsdyk makes more sense for them”

This dude knows nothing.

To be fair to Friedman, he has so much content to fill up that he has to put out more than just what he knows. He also has to mix in his own thoughts and speculation. He's got sources and knows some things but he's just a hockey fan when it comes to his own thoughts.

Assen na yo!

Seriously. No GM is telling Elliotte Friedman (or Pierre LeBrun, or David Pagnotta) the inner workings and up to the minute status of their current trade negotiations. All these "insiders" speculate just as much as we do, except they get paid for it.

No they don't. All that is done on these boards is speculation.

Guys like Friedman, Dreger and LeBrun, et al certainly speculate but they have legitimate inside info. No GMs are not directly telling them intimate details, but they do talk, and I would suggest more of the insider info comes from agents and other connection inside organizations. Their speculation is usually based on other info they are hearing.

Otherwise mostly speculation.

The NHL is a business.

It has TV contracts that generate revenue. It's in the NHL's interest to create media hype, it's just good business to do so. So ya I think there's a certain amount of leakage that takes place
