As I had mentioned in the text above, this is a very good signing for the team, one that doesn’t handcuff itself for the long term.
But is the Russian really the solution to the Ottawa club’s playoff drought? Unfortunately, we won’t know until next April.
What you need to know is that Tarasenko would have left offers from the Panthers (Florida), the Sharks (California) and the Hurricanes (Carolina) on the table to bring him to the nation’s capital. I’m a little surprised to see the Sharks in the derby, but it proves they want to win soon.
$5 million AAV … had other offers, including Florida and San Jose and Carolina. #stlblues https://t.co/FPNc6K6yxD

Interesting information, though, because it’s usually the other way around. Free agents like to move to hot destinations like Florida and California, and will ignore Canadian cities because of the cold and taxes, among other things.
This is unlikely to be the case with Tarasenko. It’s true that he’s Russian and that the cold certainly doesn’t scare him…
My colleague Mathis Therrien mentioned it in his morning text: the winger has turned down offers ranging from $5.5 million to $6million. We now know which teams were ignored by the Sens’ new forward.
As we know, he ended up signing a contract that paid less in the end. He really wanted to play in Ottawa…
In gusto
– Life is good.

– Jalen Ramsey will go under the knife.
More info and clarity on #Dolphins star CB Jalen Ramsey: Sources say while no firm determination will be made until surgery, the likely outcome is a full meniscus repair, bringing Ramsey back in December if all goes well. The best and healthiest option. pic.twitter.com/rcQsbo3dtx

– More details on the Camacho situation.
Having not received an offer, and not wanting to find himself in the same situation as 2 years ago, it should come as no surprise that Camacho himself has requested a trade.
