Trade between Ottawa and St. Louis

[dickiedunn]

Ottawa Senators management strike another deal our 9th since assuming control of the team in late November 2011.

This time we bring in inconsistent Brad Boyes and hope he can produce a few points for us.

In turn we send the Blues two Right Wingers we thought we would rebuild around but sometimes the deal and timing just feels right so we pulled the trigger with St.Louis. Losing Atkinson is tough and we know he will be a very good power forward type player in the very near future (the kid loves to hit and shoot!).

Coming to OTT
RW, Brad Boyes, $4.0m (2011-2012)

Going to St.Louis
RW, Cam Atkinson, $1.6m (2013-2014)
RW - Nicklas Jensen, N/C, (0 Games) property of NHL's Vancouver Canucks

Cam is undersized, but hopefully he can be productive. I was in desperate need of RW, so I had to make a deal. The deal takes me from 1 RW to 0 (NHL level) but hoping that it gets me 2 in the future. Thanks. oh and the deal adds cap space that I was desperately in need of .... sarcasm ... what I got like 30M now 

[Jonathan]

per the rules, I would like to throw (yes, I am abusive) Nicklas Jensen on my minors roster.

i'll call this one a draw with future win to Blues for picking up good young forwards.
