It will be interesting to see Ottawa’s moves based on Friedman’s comments. Sounds like they want some veteran players but they (should) be sellers at the deadline. Playoff teams (buyers) are not usually looking to trade veteran players at the trade deadline so I would think Ottawa’s changes would have to wait to the offseason. But Friedman was suggesting that Ottawa is being aggressive right now in looking to change the team. I suppose it could mean just moving on from certain vets like Tarasenko. Hoping Giroux is not made available as he is a solid alternative to Lindholm that is on a good contract. Could dilute the market for Lindholm.
