Karlsson has said he wants a max deal befitting a premier NHL defenceman...which would be something like 7 years X $11M per year. Doughty did 8 X $11M in LA, as the closest recent comparison.

Would you still do it?

Agreed but Benning is an idiot, so Hughes, Pettersson and woo will be traded

1. I can't imagine the Sens will do a deal not involving a 2019 1st since they are going to be giving theirs up.

2. Karlsson doesn't want to play here or probably anywhere in Canada.

I think the last time the drafting city traded their first round pick was Horvat Schneider

Cannot see a top 10 1st getting traded.
Late 1st no probs.
If Ryan is packaged we give up a lot less.
Like i said thats a long contract to eat.

They won't make the deal without getting a 2019 1st back is all I'm saying. We don't have one that we want to give up.

I'd trade the 1st in 2019 if it was top-5 protected... that's just me though

I'd consider that too, but again I think it would be a moot point because the Sens are going to get what they want for a player of that caliber

Ya never know. Other teams know they are desperate, EK won't be making any promises to extend. crazy sh1t happens.

Maybe... but the longer this drags on, the less leverage the Sens have. I live in Ottawa and if this is still hanging over their heads at training camp, it's going to be a disaster.
