This Norris thing is ****ed. Even when he does start, who's got any confidence he'll last any length of time?
Sounds like Russell has more confidence in the Callups Hockey Pool and Bingo games.
It might be time to consider moving him. I like him as a player but I think he is probably injury prone. Use that money to sign Pinto.
what would you get for him? 7 years left on a contract for a broken player.

Jacob Bernard-Docker and Egor Sokolov cleared waivers. I'm glad nobody claimed them.They are still young enough that they may develop into useful players.

Lassi Thomson a wasted #1 pick and Dorian doesn’t want to pay Pinto 2.5M offered 1M on 1 year contract. Source: Elliotte Freidman 32 Thoughts Podcast
Cyril Leeder back in the fold where he belongs. First move by the new owner is a good one.
Good vibes 😎 only

great news, but i wonder if this had to be done now. Even if he has a stellar season, he wouldn't get any more than this, being a seconds year player. But if he has a sophomore jinx season, could they have gotten him for less?
Or I'll just shut up and be happy about it.
I truly believe he’s on the verge of being a real star, I see it as a huge positive. Good vibes 😎 only
you missed out on a glorious opportunity to drop an Oddball "negative waves" blast on me.

Can't see Pinto being traded. Joseph is the obvious one, if they can find a taker. Brannstrom would be next up. No one is touching Forsberg until he proves his knees are fine.
Better problems than trying to make the cap floor.
No one wants Joseph Brannstrom or Forsberg right now at their current cap hits, the pandemic has left any of the clubs who are contending with any money

Salary Cap economics.
NHL Salary Cap is $83,500,000
Sens' current cap numbers.
PROJECTED CAP HIT : $82,604,047 PROJECTED LTIR USED : $0 PROJECTED CAP SPACE : $895,953 CURRENT CAP SPACE : $895,953
Dead Cap $5,020,833
RETAINED SALARY (1) $1,562,500 Murray, Matt $1,562,500
BUYOUT HISTORY (3) $3,458,333
Ryan, Bobby $1,833,333 White, Colin $875,000 Del Zotto, Michael $750,000
We only have 10 forwards signed with Pinto and Sokolov pending with $895,953 cap space left.
Leafs are $13,256,450 over the cap, but with LTIR (Jake Muzzin and Matt Murray) are projected to be $2,943,950 over the cap.
I don't know all the ins and outs about the salary cap, but why can the Leafs attribute Matt Murray's cap space to LTIR, but not the Sens with their retained salary?
Read a few articles on this and none mentioned this. Only that the Sens only have about $900k cap space left and two players to sign and saying the Sens will need to make some trades with names like Joseph, Forsberg, Brannstrom, Kubalik even Pinto being mentioned.
Training camp is around the corner and other teams are in a cap crunch to trade options will be limited.
How does this GM still have this position? The new owner and new rumored GM to be Steve Staios and along with rumored front office exec Alfie will hopefully clean this guy out who spent them into this mess.

It is going to take adding a player we don’t want to trade to get someone to take Joseph, and we’ll take a step backward to get Pinto signed with Tarasenko already on the books. I didn’t like that signing at the time because of this, and I still don’t. Joseph + Chabot to get a lower cost, and lower talent D back and cap space. I said it weeks ago and still think it will be something like this that happens.
You are exactly right and really really really hope it doesn't come to that.
