I guess the only other impact player I could see is Girard. Although it's pretty early to tell in general especially on someone like Bowers.

Yup. This one could take years to see who actually won.

Duchene has show he can play wing + being a left handed shot he can easily adapt to either stone, ryan, or white; Sens will likely be deeper on Rw

I highly doubt Duchene was brought in for 1 year and this is a move to get Karlsson some star power. Something tells me Hoffman might be the person that benefits most from this trade..

- AlfieisKing

None of this says how Duchene is more dynamic...

LMAO WTF is star power???

I don't hate you. Just think you're a shameless homer who pretends to be objective.

I'm not gonna defend Benning's poop moves.

*3 seconds (Kamanev, Girard, and NSH 2nd)
- Feds91Stammer


I was referring to today's approximate value and counting Girard as the first, Bowers as an early second, Kamanev as a late 2nd or early third (counted as a 3rd conservatively here).

Basically I was going for a pretty conservative assessment by pushing Bowers to 2nd and Kamanev to 3rd. But I think Girard has earned himself at least late 1st round value at this point.

Baically.

Id have been fine giving him 6 for 6. Management disagreed.

I think turris wanted / needed 7 mil from Ottawa. cheaper taxes and cost of living in Nashville. 7 mil Ottawa equals 6 mil in Nashville take home pay

Well, most people told him Sakic would not get a top 4 defenseman, a player and a top prospect for Duchene or anything close to that.

At the end of the day, they had to move him and get what they could and it's pretty much what happened.

Ottawa's 3 best rookies, none of which is particularly impressive so far. One is injured but he had a worse college career than Vesey.

... but they are going to somehow play a big role for the Sens.

Guy is an idiot.

Sources also indicate Turris wanted to play in front of sellout crowds during home games.

I am a huge Turris fan. He plays a very strong defensive game. I have no doubt Duchene brings more offensive weapons. But I am sorry to see Turris go.

I do not think that the Sens could do $6m over 6. They are already too close to the salary cap and big signings needed this summer and next.

- spatso


So sens couldnt do 6x6 for turris because you needed the cash for re signing key players. You literally traded for a guy who makes as much as turris was asking for and is likely gonna get 7+ over 8 years. And due that new contract the same time karlsson is. Good luck delorean. U really screwed the pooch on this one

That's the part I don't get. They keep mentioning saving space for Karlssson but I doubt Duchene is goona be like "hey guys I'll just take whatever spare change you have after the Karlsson deal"
