We got news from TSN’s Darren Dreger yesterday that there was a possible deal between the Ottawa Senators and Vancouver Canucks that fell through at the deadline!
Brandon Piller and Ross Levitan discuss the news that apparently there was a deal in place to send Josh Norris to Vancouver for Filip Chytil and a pick. We discuss why it’s a good thing the Sens didn’t take that deal. We continue with our 2025 NHL Draft Rankings with two very different players. #24: Blake Fiddler and #23: Cameron Schmidt.

Solid!
Getting Cozens was a much better trade for sure
While Vancouver would have been a better landing spot for Josh, I'm glad this trade didn't happen. Much prefer Cozens.
Small players that has a big impact, I always think of Steve Martins. Call up guy, but shifty as heck, playing in the big man's NHL. Admittedly small sample size, but he was so noticeable out there. Would have dominated in a different era.
Don’t know why we are talking so much about a maybe rumour that never happened, let’s give Staios a little more credit!
Hey guys! Love the Expos hat….gives me Larry Parrish vibes seeing you in it.
And I must add, the sincerity of concern in Pilzy's face at the news of Giroux still un-signed speaks volumes of how we all want him back next year. GSG.
What with the Montreal cap, Get rid of it
For me, most memorable non-trade was Heatley to Edmonton for Cogliano, Penner, and Smid. 😢
I like the Buffalo trade but im gready woukd have loved more in return maybe a 2nd round puck next year and a few prospects
Q: If they only team to go 7 vs Florida is Toronto, … do the fans regret in any degree the backlash against their team and its players?
I would have felt better for Norris if he landed there. I feel terrible for him that he's in Buffalo. Norris will be the next Jeff Skinner playing most of his career with no playoffs
Shout out to Ross' awesome hat !
Short guys never work out in the NHL, take Marchand for example….. yeah, never mind!
Cozens is very nice he looks like lacks confidence infront of the mic and the negative defense numbers worry me
Getting another 1st and a guy with only 4.5 and 2 years is a ton of flexibility they could have taken a boom or bust pick with vancouvers and safe with ours and I do worry about Pinto feeling slighted haveing another righty brought in and placed ahead of him on the depth chart is also another worry but what's done is done i just feel Pinto has a higher ceiling than Cozens and we may have forced him into a defensive role bc Cozens isn't good at defense I hope Pinto is given a real chance to earn the 2nd line job not just giving it to Cozens
Pageau !!!!!!!!
I have hugged trees on occasion. I do not like liver. I can see a salad with egg and chicken in it.
It would be nice to see the Montreal Expos again and maybe a Vancouver MLB team as well.
Looking forward to the off season and team building.
Here in Japan there’s a dish called oyakodon which is a chicken and egg dish. Oyakodon means mother and child with rice so they aren’t bothered by it.
Love the idea at taking Fiddler at 21. He feels like a well rounded player that should be a reliable middle or bottom pair guy. Best player available is always the right choice but another RD prospect would be great for our pipeline
Not nervous at all about Giroux. Very confident they'll get it done. If they don't then there is something amiss that would change our idea of a good value for G
How if Ottawa didn't trade Chara… we would of been a dynasty…100p
I think what a lot of people are missing with the Van trade is that Chytil would’ve been eligible for a 1/3 buyout.
If we had bought him out at the end of the season we’d only have a cap penalty of 750k for 4 years.
So if we had done the deal and bought out Chytil we would free up 7.2m in cap space and still got a 1st. It wouldn’t have actually been horrible if this happened
Darcy Tucker sucks. I'm glad Ottawa never got him. Fisher/Neil always put him and Domi in their place and it was fantastic.
This was my first year working as an Edmonton Oil King Off Ice Official, and so I got to see Fiddler quite a bit and love the player and I’m salivating at the thought of the Sens drafting him so I can really follow him closely “at work” next season
Ross love living in peg and hearing u on 680 outta the blue always makes me think yea we got the best sens fans even in Winnipeg
Pageau had the biggest impact for a guy his size, but EK wasn't a big guy either. Brannstrom hahahahaha
I've had salad with cold chicken and boiled eggs before 😀
