Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 5110107, member: 1969"] Senators = Total Incompetence in Moves since the start of the 2020/2021 season. The Senators had a nice core of players as headed into the pandemic season of 2020/2021. Some good drafting, a great haul from the Erik Karlsson trade... it had players on the team or in the system: Tkachuk, Chabot, (Stutzle/Sanderson/Norris from the Karlsson trade), Batherson, Pinto. And since then it has missed the playoffs every year and somehow significantly used up its asset base. It hasn't drafted anyone of note, and in fact moved a number of firsts. [U][I]When you miss the playoffs, year after year, you should be able to add assets by flipping veterans or FA's, or build up first rounders. I'll compare the net movement to what the Canadiens have done since the 2021 season (in a later post), and the difference is massive. It's a shame because the Senators had such an awesome young core built by end of 2020 system (either on team or in system) and it has gone to total waste because of incompetence (largely Dorion). And the Habs were a mess in terms of what was left by Bergeron and they have at least accumulated stuff to bring the teams closer without nowhere near the star power to start.[/I][/U] Instead the Senators have added nothing to that really nice asset base it had accumulated at the end of the 2020 season. The team has no depth and is now capped out. The following is a summary of the moves. If a player has come in from the start of the 20/21 season (via trade or Free Agency, or even waivers) and was then moved, I looked at the in/out.
