It sounds like Philadelphia and Ottawa are cooking up quite the deal
0:04
A couple people have chimed in on this. Travis Yost kind of started off the conversation
0:10
He's the one that broke the Jacob Marks from trade two. But he said that they have a framework for a deal in place and it's probably going to
0:17
happen a little bit closer to the draft. Some people have said it was Jordan Schmalz
0:23
who posted that Ottawa is going to be moving a defenseman and that they have multiple big
0:27
name defensemen on the trade block. He didn't get into specifics who that is
0:33
I don't imagine it's Sanderson. I don't imagine it's Zub. I wonder if Staos is trying to move Chabot and Chikram both. That would be very interesting
0:42
What are some pieces from Philadelphia that you'd be looking to take back
0:49
It's hard because we don't know. Is this just going to be Matthew Joseph in a third round pick for Scott Lawton? Is it going to be Jacob Chikram and 7th
0:58
overall for Travis Konechny and 12th overall? We have no idea the magnitude of this kind of trade
1:04
What kind of assets are you looking at in Philadelphia? Well, there's been, of course, a few rumors that have been talked about. There's been Scott Lawton
1:14
Travis Konechny has been talked about. I don't foresee that, but that would be a good get
1:21
He definitely fits what the senators are building. He has really high upside
1:26
just had almost a 70 point season and appears to be kind of on the rise here
1:32
But he also just was named the assistant captain on a team that is trying to build something as
1:36
well. It's also the same team that scratched their captain last year. So I take that with
1:41
a grain of salt. That's fair. Quartz is still there, isn't he? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. You never really
1:49
can bet on anything when Torz is your coach. Yeah. You never quite know. Yeah, I mean
1:57
there's a lot of names that I'd be interested in. Joel Fairby. I think he's an interesting player
2:03
you know, young as he's on the left side, left wing, but, you know, has the skill 50 point guy
2:14
Even some of their defensemen like Cam York, I know he's on a little on the other side
2:17
under size, but he's really skilled. I like Travis Sanheim as a shutdown guy
2:24
Morgan Frost is interesting. Tyson Forrester. There's a lot of guys I would not be mad at
2:31
I don't know if any of those are in the move, but if you're moving someone like
2:34
Shabbat or Chikran, I would expect at least one of those guys
