    This is a live interview in progress, started 11am EST.
    He started talking about DeBrincat a couple minutes into the interview and does not see an avenue where the Senators acquire a first round pick in tomorrow’s draft.

    I would like this trade even more if we don’t have to give up a 1st to get him.

  3. doubeljack

    I’ve been claiming we shouldn’t have to give up a first round pick, especially in this draft. Ottawa has no leverage.

  4. Caltroit_Red_Flames

    Been saying this for days. Ottawa has no leverage, the trade offer from a couple days ago of Zadina and two 1sts was absolutely insane. Thank god nobody here is a GM.

    Give him a 3rd rounder and a pat on the back. Maybe even a hug, looks like he needs one.

  6. Danengel32

    Would be neat if this meant a lower return than one involving a first rounder, but also could easily just be him not revealing anything at the moment.

    Don’t bury the lede my friend.

    He allegedly stated that this was a year NOT(!) to have a first round pick based on his scouting evaluations. That’s some Frank Lucas Blue Magic-level copium.

    From Garrioch (sens beat writer)

    Dorion says DeBrincat hasn’t asked for a trade, but has refused to sign a long-term contract and the club has to look to move him.

    Dorion says he doubts he’ll get into the first round of this draft. “I don’t think that’s going to happen,” says Dorion

    Says he may get a second or third rounder

  9. redwingsHELLyea

    I hope we keep 9 and 17 or try another way to get another pick in the first or move down from both picks😇🙏🏼

    Can you imagine we get him for Zadina and 2 seconds?

  11. krusty_yooper

    Was anyone around for the Green Bay/New York leverage war?

    Please don’t turn this into that!

  12. If Stevie can get Debrincat without using 9 or 17 (keep 9, send 17), I wonder if that then keeps a Koneckny trade on the table?

  13. BaptizedInBud

    If we aren’t sending a 1st we will be sending a prospect none of us will be happy to part with.

    Detroit receives: Debrincat

    Ottawa receives: call from yzerman

    But what I don’t understand is if we’re gonna and willing to trade for him why wouldn’t we just pull the trigger. The hold up has to be from the Ottawa side.
    If they themselves don’t believe they’ll get a first rounder then you’d think we’d immediately be making a offer that would be approved by them.
    Maybe zadina and two second rounders? That still leaves us two first and a second. Not to mention we haven’t exactly struck gold in the second round in our history. I’d give two seconds in a heartbeat for a potential 40 goal scorer who is only 25 and always healthy.

    Anyone think this could be Dorion’s attempt to get the word out to the rest of the league that the offers aren’t that hot? Maybe he’s thinking an unknown team could step up to the plate even knowing signing Debrincat would be challenging? An attempt to drive up the price, even if a bit desperate

    It’s not about what ADB is “worth” in terms of ability. That’s known.

    It’s about leverage. That’s why I Lol’d at the Zadina+two 1sts convo from the other day.

    As always, I blame EA Sports for this misunderstanding.

    Steve Yzerman right now:

  19. ColdSplit

    Zadina or Kubalik and a second sounds pretty spicy to me

  20. KillerKorwin

    Red Wings receive Debrincat
    Senators receive Sens logo fleece jacket from Steve Yzerman

    Thus is my preferred option 😉

  21. RedWingsFan1990

    I say Zadina, one of our 2nds and just to speed this up, st Louis 7th..this is about to be the biggest fleece in Yzermans career. Yzermans like, “well I could just get him for free next year Dorion” and Dorions just in the corner sucking his thumb

  22. patjs92

    That would be huge. I was thinking “do what you gotta do to bring Cat home, but please try to hang onto that #9 pick” so getting to keep both 1sts would feel like an enormous w
