To Edm: Methot + Chaisson + Dal 2nd (top 40 pick)
To Ott: Eberle

Edm could use the Methot in their top pair and Chaisson would give them size on their top 6.

It looks like it's going to be another big draft day for Edm come june. having another high pick couldn't hurt their rebuild.

We don't need more picks. We need NHL players and nothing else. No pending UFA's either

As much as it would be great to see Eberle in a Sens jersey, I don't think the right pieces can be exchanged here. We are both looking for a top pairing D-man to be honest. I think Ottawa could get by without one for this season, but it will need to be addressed. Edmonton can't keep stockpiling young talent and letting them flounder. I could see Edm moving high picks for some top end help on D.

I'm surprised they didn't sign a guy like Legwand - he might have helped to stabilize up front.

Gonchar too...

I guess teams should just love them for always starting fights after the final whistle when they lose.


You guys are probably even worse than Anaheim when it comes to that poop.

2nd pairing D with 60 games left on his contract (who apparently wants big money), and a guy who's proven to be nothing more than a 3C at this point?

I wouldn't. Top 3 D or nothing for me

Didn't realize Methot is a UFA at the end of the year.

That changes the conversation dramatically.

He uses the back door to enter regularly. I like to leave it unlocked.

The team to watch has to be the Habs. It looks like they are contenders without any changes, but you have to think that they will be willing to make some moves for this year. Byfuglien would be a great fit there.

Boy would things look so different if Dallas gave in and coughted up the 1st instead of the 2nd.

As for Edmonton, ownership needs to have a changing of the guard. Get rid of the upper mucky mucks and the goalie coach. How many goalies are going to the goalie graveyard before they realize it. Hall looks disengaged so I would take the gamble and send Zib, Methot (resigned of course), and Greening for hall and Schultz. Go big or Go home. Never going to happen though as Edmonton is stuck on a rebuild.

I agree.


Karlsson also looks disengaged to me. I'd take the gamble and send you guys Sbisa, Sestito(resigned of course) and Hansen for Karlsson and Zib. Never gonna happen though as both me and you are way smarter than NHL GM's.

I'm not convinced Edmonton is shopping Eberle really hard but I'd love him in Ottawa's top 6.

To Ottawa: Jordon Eberle
To Edmonton: Marc Methot, Zack Smith, 2014 3rd rounder

That's the problem with Oilers fans.. You guys want a #2 D man like Methot but you're not willing to deal the big 4. no one wants anyone on that team unless their names are Eberle, Hall, RNH or Yakupov.

Yes i know they're all young but somethings gotta give.

To Ott: Eberle
To Edm: Methot, Z.Smith, Dal 2nd rounder 2014 (currently sits at 35th overall)

- Erik6Karlsson5



and that's the problem with you donkeys making offers, who in the (frank) actually thinks Methot is a #2 Dman

man, what is with some of my fellow sens fans on here today......those trade offers for eberle are RIDICULOUS.

the zibby and methot deal is a good start...but methot's contract status means the sens would need to throw in another good piece to that deal.

like someone else mentioned, edmonton and ottawa don't make good partners right now.......the only pieces edmonton has that would help ottawa, the Oil would want more than ottawa would pay......and the opposite is also true.
