No, thanks, I like some russian dudes, but it`s way much even for me. Even my pet bear can`t agree with it. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they paid big to get Duchene and couldn't re-sign him either, had to trade him. Again, ottawa is not a cap team, they can't spend to the ceiling.

NJD16W Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 2nd overall pick is worth more than Debrincat. Mortgaging the entire draft + having to pay Debrincat a ton of money on top of that is a terrible value. This team is not in win now mode. It is not 1 player away. Drafting a player 2nd + handing Gadreau a blank check would be far better than trading for Debrincat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have had two GMs since ce Lou and both had the talent of broken clocks. One only wanted to bring on anyone who had aomething to do with the Penguins and the other is too scared to take any risks and is more concerned about watching his son play hockey Edited July 7, 2022 by CarpathianForest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 My research tells me DeBrincat only has one more RFA year left, meaning he is UFA in 2024. Maybe 2OA was to much to give up if they didn’t feel they’d be able to re-sign him long term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJD16W Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Trading 2nd overall for Debrincat has huge salary cap ramifications. It appears none of the people screaming at the sky get it. This isn't the player for pick straight up swap they are making it out to be. Giving up premium assets & years of cheap control + having to pay a ton of money to Debrincat on top of that is not a smart move for this team. If we had the 7th pick like Ottawa that would change things. There is a drop off after the first 4 picks in this draft. Teams in the top 4 are very happy to make their pick in this draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz did say many many times that a crucial part of their long term plan is to acquire players with terms. And acquire player that brings something different. I love debrincat and i'd do Holtz (same kind of player) + Zacha + 2nd.. Foote... wtv for him. But not a 2nd overall pick that we'll control for 5+ years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 2OA was to much to give up if they didn’t feel they’d be able to re-sign him long term. Given our record over the last decade we probably miss the playoffs both years and he gets traded at the deadline or walks when he's a UFA anyway so yeah I'm fine with not giving anything up if he wouldn't sign long term immediately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
