- While all eyes were on Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final, the Senators went out and acquired Linus Ullmark for Joonas Korpisalo, Mark Kastelic, and a 2024 first round pick. TSN Hockey analyst Cheryl Pounder and TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button join Jay Onrait to react to the trade, and what the future looks like for the Senators.

Happy for Linus 🇸🇪 He can help Sens back to postseason games
Fans of his new team can only hope that that happens. Key will also be, for the Sens to:
- qualify for postseason play, have reasonably competent goaltending from at least two goalies, which this past season the Canucks did from Thatcher Demko and Casey DeSmith, particularly important because unlike Connor Hellebuyck, Demko had become injury-prone following the Canucks' 2021 North Division stint
- win in the postseason, have a goalie who can stand on his head if needed to give them a chance to win games, something that this postseason with the Canucks Arturs Silovs did even with that team having lost its conference semifinal in seven games to the ultimate Stanley Cup finalist Oilers
Massive win for Ottawa
Craig, please put on sox
I'd rather not see him at all.
I like summer Craig
So happy for the sens. Their defence last year wasn’t great but it wasn’t that bad either and that terrible goaltending really killed them, so i truly think that simply having a goalie that makes all the saves he should make/being consistent will make all the difference for a possible playoffs year.
How many times would they claw back in a game and he lets a softy or let in the first shot of the game. I wish him the best but I’m glad it’s not here
@@mjrowen9563 EXACTLY. So many floaters just going in for no reason…
Like the guys on tsn said this morning .it’s two birds with one stone. Would have costed a buyout of 1.3 for 8 years and then find a new goalie. Did all that with the 25th and a fringe player who wanted a change. Even if ullmark doesn’t resign I love this trade as a sens fan
Defense for the Sens no doubt was a problem although not great goaltending hurt them too. The 2020 postseason for the Canucks featured Jacob Markstrom and Thatcher Demko having shared goaltending duties but after that Demko would become the Canucks' main goalie. Relying so heavily on Demko, during the Canucks' 3 seasons that had ended in April 2023, had only taken them so far although it didn't help that few of their backups had been any good, with Braden Holtby (2021 North Division), Jaro Halak (2021-22 season), Spencer Martin (2 seasons ended April 2023, placed on waivers late last September) and Collin Delia (2022-23) having at best been inconsistent and at worst sieves.
no socks without shoes was so 2021...come on craig
No class,no socks,no class!Groovy,not now,grow up!
The winners of the trades are Korpisalo and Ullmark. Both were granted a change of scenery.
Fun fact, Forsberg and Ullmark was a tandem in Modo years ago in Sweden
Gotta give Staois credit, this was a great trade on paper. He just brought in a guy whos career save percentage is instantly third all time in Ottawa. About time we got ourselves an elite goalie!
Sometimes you hava to wait a few years to determine who got the better of the trade. I am a Bruins fan but never a fan of Ulmark who always put up good numbers in regular season but not in the playoffs.
Korpasolo could be a good second goalie, Kostalic is only 25, big centre, good in faceoffs and not afraid to drop the gloves. We needed a guy like that. The key will be 1st round pick. Who will be remaining at 24th spot ? Maybe in 2 years we will look back and remember that we drafter a first line player for Ulmark and we will say we did well in that trade.
I am surprised the bruins couldn't find a deal where they didn't have to take back an aging declining goalie on an expensive long contract
Which makes the deal even more surprising. When they first talked about this trade, Chychrun and the 7th overall was talked as being the trade baits. So the 25th, Kastelic and Korpisalo was a surprise. Specially they wanted to get rid of Korpisalo and get a better goalie. Overall, this was like a the best deal ever for the Sens since they checked 2 boxes in one trade.
Now Staios still has plenty of work to resign Pinto and think that he's looking to trade Chychrun.
It was done to spite the Toronto Maple Leafs. No way Boston would've traded Ullmark to the Leafs.
No one ever said chyckrun or the 7th. Fans made that up. I thought Bruins would get Greig though.
Three million for a goalie is not expensive. They will either flip him to another team or let him serve as a back up for a year, then buy him out.
@@DBeau73a 7th for a rental? What the hell are you people smoking
They need better defense. Without a better defense, the sens will suffer the same result.
totally agree!
@@jacklavoie2523 Just ask the Winnipeg Jets how good regular season, but poor postseason, defense has served them. Those Jets have played nine straight playoff games during which they have allowed at least four goals, with a 1-8 record over those games not very surprising.
Hope Linus can bring stability for Sens in nets and all the best Korpi and Kas.
playing behind the sens d and the bruins d are 2 entirely different worlds.
guessing we'll see the ulmark from buffalo
@@klnrklnr4433 agree, Sens have to fix D structure.
Will Ulmark perform as well without the defence of Boston in front of him?It should be interesting this coming season in Ottawa.
He was great on terrible Buffalo teams. His numbers will most likely not be what it was in Boston, but Ottawa should at least get good goaltending out of Ullmark
Yes! The guy is a stud he did it with Buffalo and they were absolutely horrible when he was there. And he only got better after.
Ottawa has a good defence. They will be fine, Ottawa problem was goaltending not defence.
@@chrisgoodings4450 The Sens D was atrocious. One of the worst in the league last year. Something has to be done to change that. More trades are definitely in the works
@@MBurnsy he was average in Buffalo
They weren’t trading vezina Ulmark of a season ago, they were trading this season version of ulmark…the guy they lost confidence in to even play in the playoffs, the guy on an expiring contract…they might not have been able to get a top Center for him??
Just watch, Korpi will put up good numbers in Boston, similar to ulmark’s.
Cope
Korpisolo will put up better numbers in Boston than he did with Ottawa. Ullmark's numbers will be worse.
The Bruins have a history of players who over achieved and played great with Boston, after traded no more..
Great trade for Boston because he was their backup and they got a 1 st round pick for him
As a Leafs fan, this is something I rarely hear discussed. Teams in recent past that have been bad are improving. The Sens, Wings, possibly MTL maybe sabres are getting better and closing in on Leafs. I love the team thr Sens are building. Did they lose a ton last year yes but they are building a solid core at the right positions and I think they can start to make a playoff push
The Leafs this past season had a goalie in Ilya Samsonov who had been such a sieve he had cost to Leafs points in the regular season and 2 playoff games during which he had allowed multiple ugly goals. Not-so-good goaltending had during the 3 seasons that had ended in April 2023 cost the Canucks points in the regular season, with none of Braden Holtby, Jaro Halak, Spencer Martin (the last of whom the Canucks would waive last September without his having played in a preseason game that same month for that team) and Collin Delia having been particularly good backups to what would become a very injury-prone Thatcher Demko.
The Canucks' 2022-23 season featured such a poor start they would be well out of the playoff picture by December. They had some good players but not really a good team, something that would change dramatically the following season with more competent goaltending and defense corps. There is hope for the Sens for this coming season but there's no doubt they need to get off to a start much more like the 2023-24 Canucks than not.
Ullmark is UFA after next season, steep price to pay if he doesn't sign with Ottawa.
Bostons strong d made him look better than he actually is. Fans think they'll be getting the goalie he was in Boston, but they're going to get the consistent over 3.00 gaa and under .900 save% he would get right up to the year he signed with Boston. Even of he does do good he isn't extending with Ottawa, next off-season he'll test free agency
you should probably go check Ullmark's stats before he went to Boston
exactly this
Is Ullmark any better than Korpisolo? The Bruins were one of the best teams defensively while the Senators were one of the worst. Unless Ottawa improves their defense, Ullmark won't make much of a difference.
Remember that St. Louis’s Stanley Cup run begin with getting it good goal putting him in net before building with defence around him. Maybe that’s the next step?
Korp might be the worst goalie I have ever seen
He literally let in the 1st or 2nd shot about 20 times
The Sens goalies were the worst in the league and the worst at letting soft first shot goals in. How is that the defenses fault when they do their job and the goalies let in soft goals they should stop? Ullmark will stop those shots and therefore make the defense look better just by that alone. He will make a HUGE difference, regardless of your salty Bruins fan take.
The Senators should sign Montour.
I am very surprised but that solves Ottawa goaltending for a while
Didn't they say that when they acquired Korpisolo?
Now they just gotta figure out everything else..... lol
doesn't ulmark only have one year left on his contract?
It's a really good trade for Ottawa but only IF they resign him. For the Bruins I have no idea what they were thinking here, they downgrade their backup goalie with more term and get very little back beyond that, little bit of cap space as well.
Stevie’s bent the Bruins right over there. Epic.
23 games last year they let in the 1st or 2nd shot. That is on the goalies 100%.
I know Korpi personally. He’s a B+ goalie. Swayman is 1a Korpi will be 1b like Tatum and Brown
Now they got out of the way, now for the defensive side, free agent or trade, either one works
Ottawas defensive was bad so don’t blame Korpisalo for everything
I don't get Boston. So bound & determined to trade the reigning Vezina winner & for what? A horrific goalie who's on term @ 3 million & a late pick in a weak weak draft.
Swayman's their long term starter, can't afford to give botj goalies raises and keeo both. Ullmark also had a mnmc, probably wouldve lost him for nothing after next season and he had some say in where he could get trade. Better to get some assetts in return vs letting him walk
@@Metalbear-m3g Ottawa is a goalie graveyard, but regardless, Sens fleeced the Bruins here. to move Korpisalo was a miracle, Sweeney lol
Yeah, I can't help but feel they could've found a much better trade partner, but perhaps just dumping him on a dead team was a win in itself?
Linus wanted to play East, closer to get a flight to sweden. That is something i heard. Make sence he turned down LA for that reason
Leafs signed Woll. May be Linus declined to go to Toronto. What's the difference in cap between the two? I got the impression Linus didn't wantToronto as a destination when he appeared on Leafs Talk with Jay Rosehill and Nick Alberga.
Woll is $766k for next season, ullmark is $5mil for next season, but is going to be looking for more $$ when ufa after next season
@@michaelmignone5869 With a competent defence, Woll could possibly be as good as Linus or Swagman. Linus gave him that endorsement. Either the Leaf goalies are playing too hard to make up for defence deficits or they're naturally injury prone and won't improve / matter with or without a revamped d-core. There's no way Woll isn't as good as Skinner and yet they made it to the finals. Leafs just have a curse on them.
ottawa is like the flyers, they always lacked good golatending. I think the only one i can think of Anderson from Ottawa.
flyers had bobrovski at one time.
@@klnrklnr4433 yea i know, but that was when he was starting out, so no way to know if he had the potential to be a starter or not, and they also traded him away anyway lol. Flyers and Ottawa are known for being goalie graveyard teams lol, they either get driven away or they just struggle and get bought out or put on waivers, etc.
one year of Ulmark is a great trade?
Just getting Karpisolo off the books makes this a great trade for Ottawa.
The only issue is you get him for one year - no guarantees he extends. If he signs, great move. If he doesn’t, yikes - this doesn’t ensure a playoff birth, not in that division
Is Bob essenza coming with him?
Button put some socks on!
What Ullmark for a first rounder? Boston must be really desperate to sell, this deal is ridiculous
The first basically was to take the korpisalo contract. They just traded kastelic for ullmark. What a win for Ottawa.
@@mike8099m What makes you think that Ullmark is any better than Korpisolo? We know that he is more expensive.
@@jwvvvv career 919 save percentage and a vezina. In what way can you even make that argument
@@mike8099m Ullmark thrived in Boston's defensive oriented system. He wasn't a Vezina candidate in Buffalo and he sure won't be in Ottawa. That is how I make that argument.
Korpisalo will be good in Boston with their system
Probably better than Ullmark with Sens system
Leafs are a joke. Let other teams get better while they waste matthews prime. Stupid front office
This video is about the Senators and Bruins.
You think the Bruins are gonna trade the Leafs a goalie upgrade?
@@mcj44what video are you watching? Clearly about leafs and front office.
@@mcj44 Doesn't matter if we're watching cricket, TSN will always make a mention of theLeafs. It was also heavily rumoured they were chasing Linus.
Ullmark didnt want to play in Toronto
Leafs drop the ball AGAIN.
sens got hosed on this one
If Ottawa doesn't get better defensively they'll find marginal difference between the goalies
Ullmark wasn't good enough to beat the Leafs with Boston's defense but it is a good trade? Okay.
Craig looks like the mayor of whoville
…and one year later Ullmark walks to free agency.
100% he will yes..Sens fans dont even see that..zero chance he signs in Ottawa unless they massive overpay
@@RoamHockey maybe they trade him at the deadline and recoup their 1st round pick…. Plus they get out of 75% or Korpi’s salary. Guess it could be a slight win for them .
nope Ottawa loses this deal..its a massive overpay giving a 1st rounder for a 1 year rental
Look what happened to New Jersey Devils when they traded Cory Schneider
NOTHING happened and it’s going to be the same thing to Ottawa Senators😵💫😥☹️
The bruins screwed this one up
Bruins got hosed!
Glad Leafs didnt go after him. They dont like solid playoff goaltending . They like flashy forwards that sell merchandise
I remain concerned about the goaltending the Leafs have. The Sens had had a goalie and 1st-round pick they had been willing to give up, and I dunno, even with at worst a neutral relationship between Treliving and the Sens (unlike with the Flames' team whose GM he had been before having jumped in spring 2023 from them to the Leafs), whether the Leafs would've necessarily had the cap space to pull off that deal but also take sufficient care of other roster holes.
What was Sweeny thinking or drinking- Fleese job !!!
Bruins would have been better off with a bag of used pucks and a skate sharpener.
The first (25th) pick will help rebuild depth and kastellic with some work can be a very effective bottom 6 guy. Speed and size if your club can unlock it from him. He does have it and fits PERFECTLY in Boston.
But thats where it should have stopped. 1st round + Kastellic and the freed up cap space would have made this a better deal for Boston.
No way Ottawa agrees to that tho.
Uniform number for 1967 mother’s wife of the owner of Niagara Falls fire removing grass and reselling them. I’m doing I will Falls see you at the Boston Bruins and share a picture.
Bruins dont get cap relief, they get a minor level G and C...and a late 1st?!?!?! What a joke 😅 Just start the short twrm rebuild already before cap jail is much longer
you're forgetting the Sens only get a 1 year rental out of this 🙄no chance next summer he signs in Ottawa lol
Horrible trade for Boston Sweeney is a joke needs to follow him to Ottawa a 5th line forward goon who can’t skate and a goalie with a 3.79 goals against this trade made us the laughing stock of the NHL
