Ottawa got one taken away and one given to them in the same fashion. Karlsson goes to the Sharks and they go to the conference finals. He re-signs and they go in the tank. The 1st they end up giving Ottawa turns into Tim Stutzle and the Sens take Jake Sanderson with their own pick 2 spots later.
Sens also made the right call to keep their 2018 1st and select Tkachuk rather than give their 2019 1st which ended up being Byram.
