[Trade] Senators trade Nikita Zaitsev, 2023 2nd-round pick, 2026 4th-round pick to Blackhawks for future considerations

We paid a 2nd to move Dickinson's 2.65m

 

OTT just paid a 2nd to move Zaitsev's 4.5m

Yet I think Ottawa paid too much with the extra pick, that trade by us was beyond stupid. We could be trading Miller taking on bad contracts expiring next year. Acquire a ton of assets and be good in a couple years but no Canucks never do anything smart. Except Horvat bc they were forced.

Better player is a stretch. He's been a regular healthy scratch for Ottawa while costing nearly double in cap space.

Is the player the issue in Ottawa or the team?

 

Zaitsev had 2 good seasons with Toronto and since the trade has struggled on a terrible sens team.

 

Dickinson is lukewarm dog puke barefoot at 3am

 

sidenote, seems sens will be adding a dman or two as they currently only have 4 healthy d.

Does this open the floodgates for more trades? Maybe OTT clearing cap to go after Chychrun or dare I say Myers? (oh wait, didn't Myers already nix a trade earlier to OTT?)

 

OTT has a lot of cap space ($18?), so I'm wondering what they're up to. Maybe they're going to trade for Schenn....and Miller  :bigblush: They could use a veteran C, take some of the load off Giroux.

If I recall correctly, Vancouver tried to do a deal with Ottawa for the Rabbit but Z wouldn't waive his M-NTC (must have had Van on the list) to allow the deal to complete. 


But still, these are the deals hopefully management can pull off if these are the market rates.

And we get Stillman on a 1.4 x 2 as the cherry on top... Will go down as one of the most dog deals once that 2nd is a early 40s next season lol

Stutzle has a 7M raise next year and Zub a 2M raise but yah they still have more space.
