If Melnyk is forcing Dorion to trade Karlsson with Ryan as a package we aint getting sh*t for Karlsson.
Can't see even Melnyk doing that, if he were to do that and the Senators took a trade that's less than what they paid for Duchene then even that dolt can see the fan base will outright revolt and not show up to his arena. Right? He really can't be that blind to what's happening all around him.
If Anderson asked to go Dorian still can't go into full rebuild that's the reason he took on the underacheiving and overpaid 3rd line player in Boedker. He needs bodies to compete next season, they cannot give up a top lottery pick next year they need to try and win at all cost now to save a little dignity moving forward. Right?
I think Melnyk is pretty much doing everything he can to spite the fan base and city at this point. He’s going to burn it down and still be laughing all the way to the bank in the eventual sale of the ashes. He will force a Karlsson-Ryan lost trade sooner rather than later to avoid the $2M signing bonus due to Ryan on July 1st.

If they had to give up a former #3 overall pick in Turris who was your #1 center and your last First round pick and a future #1 pick that's probably a Lottery pick in a deep draft then what can Ottawa really expect to get for Karlsson? Karlsson is a much better player than Duchene so you'd think Dorian could actually, maybe trade from a position of strength just once?
As Shanghai pointed out they give guys away for pennies and they paid a huge extortion price to a GM who stood his ground after all the critics were roasting him for over a year about Duchene. They have to get this right
I bet they're going for Tkachuk. Cause... I dunno?
Good guess, your right no one but Dorian and Melnyk know right now. Zadina Tkachuk Hughes those would be the 3 I would choose from.
If Montreal takes Zadina, then I want the Sens to use the entire clock and then tell the league they are sending the pick to Colorado. Let them waste the pick on Tkachuk.
If the rumors of Melnyk wanting to get to the cap floor are true then I’d say top 2 is pretty much guaranteed next season. So at worst they drop to 5 in a deeper draft.

everything I've heard about Tkachuk is he's pretty damn good, as well. Sounds like we will get a winner either way.
Everybody that isn't sold on Tkachuk says it's he only scored 8 Goals for Boston College, he was a freshman on a loaded team. But I'm no scout and letting Colorado take that pick isn't a bad idea IF they trade Karlsson. Losing that first in a deeper draft next year is a killer for this team and it's decisions going forward.
