Balcers is a great prospect who could be a top line winger. Tierney is a second line center the Sens need right now. Demelo is a legitimate NHL defenseman, which is a lot to say for an Ottawa Senator right now. Norris is a prospect with depth forward upside.

Problem is, it's like one piece deeper than the Rick Nash trade, and the perceived difference in value here is roughly one Rick Nash, worth a second-line forward, potential NHL-quality D prospect, an overpaid bottom-sixer, a first, and a seventh. Add all of that to the Karlsson trade and it'll be digestable.

Hahaha, Sens.
Balcers is an ok offensive prospect but even in future Senators terms he's nowhere close to a top line winger. There's a considerably higher chance that he's nothing. Tierney had a career high of 23 points prior to this year. Demelo is trash and the Sharks didn't even give him a qualifying offer. Ever Dorion wasn't pretending that Tierney and Demelo were anything.

Domi has a hearing. No surprises there.

Maybe he's just going to get himself suspended enough that he won't actually have to play for the Habs this season.

They got 6 players by only giving up 2 players, therefore they won the trade 3:1.

Not to mention, Karlsson isn’t big or truculent so it’s probably more like 3.5:1

Ekblad has had some concussion issues, compounded when Rowe played him too early after a concussion. I think he doesn’t want any head trauma in meaningless games

Cam Janssen has no points, just like the record he holds for the most PIM in a season in which he registered no points.

Fact checking my Cam Janssen tidbit, I came across two of the most incredible stat lines.

Peter Worrell, 1997-98: 19GP, 153 PIM, 0 points
John Kordic, 1990-91 (w/ Caps): 7GP, 101 PIM, 0 points.

I know these games are largely against nobodies/bad teams, but should I be encouraged by Foo and Dube's scoring? I've watched next to no hockey in this preseason, other than watching Sven Baerstchi score a dandy goal against Edmonton.
