Steve Staios and the Ottawa Senators opened up the flood gates for the rest of the league to start trading as he made his first trade as General Manager!
Brandon Piller and Ross Levitan break down the deal that brought two mid round picks in return. We cover the flurry of other trades around the league and speculate on how they may affect the Jakob Chychrun market. And, oh ya, it’s a game day! We preview tonight’s tilt up against the Anaheim Ducks, a team that also weakened their lineup with a pair of players on the move for them.

Hopefully they don’t trade Chychrun for a 4th round pick (a bucket of pucks)
The Buffalo doesn't make sense but they might have other ideas
I normally stay up for the late games but this trip is all scheduled losses. 0 wins west of their time zone and the California trip always seems to be the worst road trip of the season. Also the guys are already checked out, they'd rather be golfing and having a good time than win hockey games and I am fully on board with that. Tankathon is officially official.
'Promo sm'
Sorry guys, Its all my fault. As a Montreal Expos fan I was destined to back an NHL team that is now The Expos of the NHL, and to re-live the Heartbreak of another Franchise Failure.
For the Expos were also known as the "Farm Team" for other MLB teams. Examples include: Dawson to the Cubs. Larry Walker to Colorado, Marquis Grissom to ATL, Moises Alou to FLA, and the worst of all….Pedro Martinez to Boston!
This trade was made for one thing only. Free up cap space to sign Pinto.
The senators got fleeced by Florida. It’s a shame letting such a good player go for nothing.
a bit underwhelming? Talk about an understatement.
Just so you guys know, Sleeper isn't available in Ontario for betting.
No we arent cheering for florida, out of the east I would say we cheer for Carolina out of the east and out of the west Edmonton or Vancouver
I watch every game no matter what but sometimes I can’t bring myself to watch the postcast if I know it will further my depression
Love you guys but no more gambling ads please.
Allegedly Philly is sniffing around on Chych
Could they package what they got for Walker with other assets to acquire Chychrun? Retain another 50% on Johansen to drop his cap hit to $2M next year and the Senators have a well priced veteran 3rd line center that they have been after all year. I personally don't like it but I am expecting that type of swing from Briere.
May take a few years to unDorion this team.
MAN… AFTER THAT TRADE THERE'S ONLY 3 WORDS THAT COME TO MIND…… BEST IN CLASS….. LMFAO
I'm so disheartened about our team . Will watch the game tonight .
Project a late first and 22 year old plus AHL prospect. Senators management hopefully understands why handcuffing yourself never works in trades. They're getting a first hand view thanks to Dorion
I thought Pilzy’s last thought on the show was just going to be that big sigh.
Another loss for our Sens
Another 5 years of rebuild coming up.
The outrage is ridiculous. Vlad is a 3rd line winger who can score. He's meh at D and costs way too much for what he is now. How many third liners are giving you more than 3rd? I would argue the condition should have been a 2nd rounder if the Panthers win the cup.
This just in, Staios moving Stutzle to Buffalo for 5th rounder and retain 50% for a 6th rounder
Hard to see such a poor return for Tarasenko. I get that Florida has all the leverage but not even a second? With 50% cap retention? Can't imagine a worse deal than a 3rd and a 4th. I guess at the end of the day we got Vlad for free so it could be worse
So, knowing you can't use a calculator, and that Staios just saved the Sens over $975K to put towards another's contract, collecting 2 draft picks in return; Comparing Tarasenko's trade with Mantha, not realizing that Washington gave up essentially Dickinson to Dallas, in order to get Mantha, and Washington only gets a second round pick in return plus a 4th round pick in '26. Your show, you did your research, and you're BLASTING Staios for saving monies for the Sens? Do your research. lol
And this is why I question the Education system!!
You even retained half the man's salary so basically floridas gm picked his nose and staios ate the boogey right off his finger what a absolute moron steve is guys worse than dorion
Its too bad…the Ducks are doing a better job of tanking than we are. At this point I hope the AHL team the Ducks are going to ice will STILL end up beating the Sens tonight.
Might as well trade timmy for a 3rd round oh and retain 50% of tims salary….
That no trade contract is always a killer. The fact is that was the best deal he got because either no other team offered more or Tarensenko said no o a better trade. I was hoping for a second or a prospect. the 50% salary retained bothers me .
I would keep Chychrun and resign him. He's playing up to his contract. Why get a player , pay dearly then lose him an get less value ? Resign him now.
Was that Kubilic that was traded for a bag of pucks…. Hold on, what it was The Tank Show, wow took stay pat Steve 6 months to pull that one off🤦🏾
Staios is making grownup decisions based on the situation he was left with.
I feel for you guys.I had high hopes as well.Does Chychrun have to go to a contender,or could you make a multi player deal with a team that probably won't be in the playoffs but is on the rise?This is an example trade not exact.Chychrun,Kastellic and Lassi Thomson for Gustav Lindstrom a young right shot d man and Isac Lundestrom an up and coming Center that has speed,plus a first.An example where you could trade to a team that would sign him long term for young players back.
Kubalik and Brannstrom to Calgary for a prospect.Norris to Chicago for Jason Dickinson.
Sorry to see Brandon so down; don't forget the internal turmoil of the SENS with the sale of the club finally, the problem with Pinto, the firing of Dorion, then DJ and a new//old coach, this all affects players like it or not. I say our year was jinxed from the start. And the NHL was not very nice to us with the Pinto punishment either. That said, we made a horrible move hiring Korpisalo for so many years. I don't believe in tanking and hate to hear you talking unsportmanlike. Let's look at what is coming from Belleville and finish the year ahead of Montreal. Alittle team pride please !!!
After thinking about this, this has to do more with Dorion being at fault for this by putting the NMC on Tarasenko to completely handcuff Staios, the same way it went with Debrincat. Florida was the only team Tarasenko would waive to, and Florida could have waited till July 1, so to get what they got, it's something, and lets not forget, we got Senko in free agency, so I look at this like they got 1 pick back from getting Debrincat, but soo much damage has been done by Dorion, Staios has to get anything really out of the UFA's. He was completely handcuffed by Dorion. Pillzy nailed it big time
What we got back for Tarasenko wasn’t worth it and to top it off we retaining half his salary. Florida are laughing at us right now. Huge lost for us and huge win for them. And a rival team also. I’m not looking forward to other trades we do when this one was so bad.
NO ONE will want Brannstrom
Didn’t bring an extra D on the trip? Embarassment!! 🤦♂️🤦♂️
Senators suck worse than the Flames, and the Flames are trying to lose!
The Sens taking Ostapchuk over Logan Stankoven still pisses me off, and Tyler Boucher at 10 instead of Sillinger (which I think was just a favor for his dad) and don't get me started on them drafting Jarventie over Paterka! I don't get any of this shit. It seems there is no game plan. Prospect pool 31st in the league……just brutal. This rebuild was done terribly.
