Sens plans is not to try to limit the value in the Avs pick....they just dont care - DDM-Coga

There is a reason he voted himself to HHOF, and was still surprised about their call.

Being on his knees is the natural position of a Sens-GM under Melnyk. |

Pair him with Burns and they have 5 forwards on the ice |

Here in Pittsburgh we know what this experience is like, except in baseball. The Pirates owner Bob Nutting frequently sells off the team's top players when they get too expensive. He did it again this past off-season, ushering in a new era of losing. He basically has it worked out so that he profits no matter what and has no motivation to keep the more expensive players, causing the team to become a de facto minor league team.
There is a big difference between tearing down and rebuilding a team because of bad contracts and over the hill players and doing it simply out of cheapness. The Senators were *one goal* away from the Stanley Cup Finals in 2017. They went from that to being completely gutted in a little over a year. Not even Nutting can claim an accomplishment like that, although he does have his hand in a 20 year sub-.500 season streak (something that has never been matched in any major pro sport). |

Couple firsts, a second, an underrated 3C thats works his ass off, and a NHL quality defenseman. A couple other throw ins that i dont know much about admittedly. I would say Ottawa did sufficient in getting as much as possible for a rental player.
The rebuild is on and those firsts along with NHL players are huge.
No idea how Burns and Karlsson work on the same team... - Mahewman
As much as possible my ass
Just traded a generational talent for a bag of potato chips

Alright so let's take a look at the trifecta here:
1) The Hoffman saga
2) Choosing to pick Tkachuk this year, deferring next year's first round pick to the Avs
3) Trading Karlsson for garbage
Now, consider this: they had the option to pick this year or next with that pick. They knew a) they were going to/have been shopping Karlsson which implies b) they won't have him for most, if not all, of the season prior to the Hughes draft.
Knowing this, they make the (frank)ing pick anyway, and trade Karlsson anyway.

That background bird is a key player in this gif, Kick.
That background bird proves the film isn't manipulated (i.e. slowed down) as it's moving at a regular life speed.
That background bird confirms foreground bird is tripping mother(frank)ing balls |
