I do not think it is worth it for Ottawa to make this trade. They can sign free agent to reach cap floor and two places is not so very much. They do not get top 10 pick, no.

any chance alex tuch becomes available to the sens? would love to have him on a line with brady tkachuk and ex teammate Colin white.

Doesn’t Clarkson only have one more year left? I don’t think they’ll have to pay too much to get a team to take that final year.

Why is it not have to pay Much to dump clarkson but a first one of their top prospects and a roster player to dump Callahan in a lot of proposals? I think they’ll have a similar cost personally, somewhere in the middle.

Because Clarkson can be put on LTIR where the cap comes off the books during the season. So he really is just cap for the summer/ if need to reach floor.

CTC55 but these teams aren’t going to use the cap space once the season starts anyway, and Callahan is a tremendous leader and can actually play a solid 4th line and pk role. if he plays anything like he did after being benched for Tampa he could probably bring back around a mid round pick at the deadline had something like 8 points in 12 games after benching including some big short handed goals.

Oh no I completely agree with you that they should be under similar cap dump trades. But the reason it’s more likely Clarkson is seen as a better one is for the reason I gave.

I see it jbs' way from a sens point of view. the sens need someone for the next year or two to go up against the crosby's and mcdavid, not that the player has to be 100% successful. more so that they aren't throwing their 20 year old prospects out there against the top lines kind of thing, would it not be better to have a guy like callahan for one year or a guy that doesn't help at all?
