Robin Lehner, David Legwand, and Eric Gryba have been traded away from the Ottawa Senators. Alright. That’s done. There seems to be no hard feelings. Now we can sit back and breathe, take stock, evaluate.
Were these good trades?
Hell yes.
Here’s why:
- $$$$ — Lehner, Legwand, and Gryba were shipped out for a 1st round pick (which turned out to be Colin White), pick #107, and Travis Ewanyk. The three ex-Sens contracts were worth a cap hit of $6,475,000. The new Sens have a cap hit of $0 as no NHL pieces were brought back.
