Thoughts on this deal


Ott receives: lucid, 2019 1st (8th ovl)

Edmonton receives: pageau, 2019 3rd (pitts)

This frees up 3m in cap space, and brings in a 3rd line shut down center with great pk ability that's only 26yrs old. You keep rnh on the wing and get a 3rd that you could flip (for for connor. brown maybe)

Ottawa upgrades a 3rd rounder to a top 10 pick and uses their cap space to keep building. By the time ottawa is relevant again the 6m cap hit might be gone or the cap has gone up enough for it to be negligible.


Thoughts on this, should there be an added sweetener somewhere?

this is the right kind of move for the senators but they probably could get an extra mid round pick or two (or just remove the 3rd fron their side)

Almost. but EDM receives pageau and ott 1rd round 2019 and EDM add a 2nd round and and 4th round pick to get rid of Lucic, no way do they lose their first round pick this year.

nobody wants lucic, I don't think many teams will bite even if the 8th overall is included. that's a terrible player on a terrible contract, that's Edmontons problem.

I think Oilers should take this and run. Fills perfectly their 3c spot and now RNH can stick to McDavid's LW because that guy can't run his own line.
