In today's episode, Tim and Host Matt discussed the controversial trade of Ottawa Senators forward Vladimir Tarasenko to the Florida Panthers, and reactions to Steve Staios' first trade as General Manager of the Sens. We discuss whether the Sens could have held out for a better deal, or if Tarasenko's no-trade clause (NTC) tied Staios' hands. We also discuss other Sens players who could be moved at the trade deadline such as Jakob Chychrun or Erik Brannstrom. Finally, we touch on the season-ending injury to Josh Norris, how this affects the Ottawa Senators going forward, and another year of looking forward to the NHL Entry Draft.
