No new GM will run with the same nine (Tkachuk, Stutzle, Batherson, Pinto, Greig, Sanderson, Chychrun, Chabot, Norris) core pieces rolling into 2024-2025. I figure two of the nice are out to door in trades. Why? Well this is Dorion's creation and it has not worked yet. GM will want to put his stamp on this team so there WILL be changes. On top of this year's annual Ottawa Senators dumping of players deadline deals to move Tarasenko, Kubalik, Brannstrom, Forsberg and MacEwen (if you can dump him). Getting a GM in place sooner rather than later is preferred.
No major trades before the end of the season, but once a new GM is in and there's been time to evaluate the team under Martin, Staios and the next GM will have more insight into what's missing and what's not working. I couldn't tell you who gets moved, but unless they go on an absolute heater for the rest of the season, there will absolutely be some changes made.
