A blockbuster trade scenario involving Toronto Maple Leafs' star Mitch Marner and Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk emerged online.
Perhaps the most disappointing thing that happened in the Atlantic Division was the Ottawa Senators' tough season. While the Maple Leafs' elimination was also upsetting for Canadian fans, the Sens looked poised to have a breakout season this year, but couldn't meet the expectations.
After many changes in the organization's front office, they could be looking to make other moves to bolster their team. Even if the GM and President of the Sens, Steve Staios, mentioned that he wouldn't trade the team captain Brady Tkachuk, it has been reported that he could be involved in a deal with Toronto Maple Leafs' Mitch Marner.
The idea was debated by Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne on their podcast Real Kyper & Bourne:
"Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne have brought up the idea of a possible Brady Tkachuk trade to the Leafs. They note how Tkachuk might be frustrated with Ottawa's lack of progress and could demand a trade if dissatisfied, forcing Ottawa to consider it. If Tkachuk is traded, Toronto might need to offer high-value assets like Mitch Marner, draft picks, or prospects.
They added while the idea of Tkachuk joining the Leafs is enticing, the feasibility of such a trade depends on several factors. The Senators' reluctance to part with their captain and the significant assets Toronto would need to offer make this trade complex. However, if Tkachuk expresses a desire to move, it could spark serious negotiations, potentially leading to one of the biggest trades in recent NHL history. Ultimately, the Senators are likely to want to keep the centerpiece of their team as they advance in the Eastern Conference standings."
