Great sens video man. Looking forward to seeing more Ottawa content!

As a Sens fan it’s the worst feeling in the world. They show time and time again they’re capable of being a great team but they can’t bother to find consistency. As much as it’s tough to hear from other fan bases that they’re a bad team, they’re right. Good teams are consistent and this team can’t be. I’m really hoping they can have a Canucks-like turnaround next season but can’t trust the team as of now. Keep Brady, Sandy and Tim. Otherwise, anything to make playoffs next season.

As always, great content! If you're looking for things you'd like to see from your viewers, I wouldn't mind a video on occasion or even a side-explanation during your normal videos of things in context for newer fans of hockey. For example, as someone who has only really become a dedicated fan in the last few years, sometimes I hear stats but don't know if they're good/bad in the context of the hockey world. If you mention how many assists, time on the ice, number of goals, etc that someone has and then put it in context of what an average is or whats considered low, etc. that would be very helpful in helping me get connected to the sport!

If Ottawa keeps tanking year after year, I can see Brady wanting to move on. He would bring so much to a playoff team. Could you imagine him leaving to play on his brother's team?? That would be sick actually

@user-we2yt5on9b

The problem with moving anyone with this kind of cap hit is that only a few bottom teams have cap space enough to take him. A trade to a contender would involve them shedding the players that make them a contender. A tough situation. He is more likely to be moved closer to the end of his contract to a team that is currently in rebuild.

The Hyundai comment was gold

You should always listen to offers, doesn't mean you'll accept them. Trade talk and rumors always ramps up when a team is doing poorly.

Love your content man keep your good work .first

The Sens have said they are trying to build around Brady and need more players like him which is absolutely true. They need more size and effort on a nightly basis way too inconsistent and Brady, Sanderson, Giroux, Greig, and Pinto are some of the few names that actually bring it every night and you can't expect too much from Greig and Pinto they are still super early on into their careers

Ottawa has some good young players. Sanderson and Brady should be the foundational players to build around.

Brady def needs playoffs i can confirm being a Sens fan is straight-up torture

I agree completely but for fun I will attampt to play devil's advocate. Two thoughts, on why Ottawa could be pondering trading tkachuk, both being a stretch at best. 1. Its been a disappointing season, and despite brady's growth and success throught his career, its coincided with the rebuild sputtering and not moving forward as expected. They may look to shake things up, and go in a different direction, in a blockbuster 1 for 1 type hockey trade. 2. PIM's being the driving factor in considering a trade. I love both tkachuk's game, they drive me nuts when their playing my wings, and i would absolutely kill to have a player like that on larkins wing. With that said, i dont want my captain and best player spending 130 minutes in the penalty box. Obviously giving the opposition power play chances isnt a recipe for success. I want my captain and best player on the ice as much as possible, killing penalties, driving offense and not giving my opponent 65+ powerplays per season. Ottawa might be willing to sacrifice brady's intangibles for a more traditional offensive forward, point per game type player with 20 PIMs a season.

Losing pinto for 41 games was a buzz kill..Stutes was injured…we all expected more from the sens.. a long off season is needed. They’ll be better next year.

More sens content please, there is so much negativity this year around the team I love hearing the good parts and Brady is here to stay!

I think the Sens biggest problem is goaltending. Forsberg and Korpisalo are 2 of the 3 worst goalies in the league by Goals saved above expected among goalies with 25 or more games.

The stat sheets look bad, but from watching the games, a lot more blame needs to be put on their defensive systems. Ever notice how most of the goalers the Sens ship off turn out to be pretty good, if not great, on their new teams? DJ Smith was an abyssmal defenaive coach for the Leafs, and those same problems followed him to Ottawa, where bad habits have been instilled in their D Core. A proper season under a real coach with real systems and the "goaltending" will no longer be an issue.

I’m a Flames fan who moved to Ottawa a few years back, if I managed to lose another Tkachuk I would be devastated. Yeah the team kinda sucks, but I was at the game where the Panthers stomped us and you could tell he was out there trying to get the boys riled up. He’s the heart and soul of the Sens and I agree the only way he leaves is by his own choice.

100% Agree with your take. I wonder what the year would have looked like had Pinto not been suspended for half of it, they seemed to play much better after he had served his 40 games. Either way I think trading Brady would be a massive mistake, he is literally everything you want in a hockey player/captain.

If Brady Tkachuk was on the NYR, they’d be an annual contender for the Cup. He’s the Power Forward that they’ve not had since Mark Messier. If Brady’s on the market, the Rangers should be the first in line.

No, YOU’RE awesome

If I was in a game where someone scored an inconsequential non-goal after the game's final whistle, I would definitely want Brady Tkachuk in my corner to throw a fit about it! 🤣

You're right, he's as close to untouchable as it gets. Gretzky got traded so no one is truly untouchable but Brady is going nowhere. Any other fanbase making mock trades are smokin doinks

I love that guy

As a sens fan, it's sad to see such skilled players playing on a team who can't seem to find good goaltending or coaching to save their lives.

As a Penguins fan, Brady is one person that I would trade Crosby for at this stage in their respective careers if I was doing a straight hockey trade.

I would take Brady on my team, any day of the week. Absolute workhorse. Ottawa has had some rough stretches, but it won't last forever, and Brady will reap the benefits on the franchise sometime in the near future.

No way should the Sens trade Brady! You build around him, period.

Fully agree with this take, it's BIZARRE to think that, after signing him long term and making him captain, the Sens would dump a proven goal-scorer who also brings the massive leadership and personality that BTkachuk does. Get real, people!

Thats WAH!!!!

I don't wanna trade away Tkachuk, but I just don't feel he should be leading. When the light shines, he's great but he also falls quite low. Giroux would be a better leader imo. Either way they need something to change

They would be stupid to let him go.

The Tckuchuk brothers and the Hughes' brothers are good friends. Just sayin'.

This team has so much talent and yet have consistently been underperforming so poorly every season. Brady as an individual hockey player is very good but i do question his leadership of being the captain of this team when in my opinion it should be Chabot

Is this a How too loose a fanbase vid?

I've said it before, and I'll say it again. Keith has 2 sons. The fact that only ONE of them has ever seen a playoff series should constitute a war crime. If the Sens can't get Brady to the Post-Season, they need to really reconsider "building a team around him", and let him go play for a team that already has the talent to truly develop a young player's skillset. TLDR: The Sens need to shit or get off the pot with Brady Tkachuk.
