Doubt the Sens are trying to trade him but also doubt that they could get a 1st and two seconds for him.
Last year close to an equivalent in value would be Jacob Chychrun and he did go for the same package. But one could argue Chyrchrun was objectively better the Hamonic was at the same time in their contract cycle.
At the time it seemed like a slight overpay. I just hope we don’t make a similar mistake in a couple years.
