Brady Tkachuk on His Way to the Montreal Canadiens? A Shocking Opportunity Has Emerged
A few days ago, we were advancing in a column that the Senators would be very open to trading their captain, Brady Tkachuk. This rumor, coming from former NHL player Ryan Whitney, mentioned that a major trade was in preparation.
The Senators have something cooking right now. The 'Boys' have heard that Ottawa could trade Brady Tkachuk. I can't believe it because nobody could be that stupid." - Ryan Whitney
Far from silencing the rumors, Renaud Lavoie added to the topic during a recent appearance on the JiC show on TVA Sports. He claimed that there was not only a lot of noise around Tkachuk, but that the cloud of this noise has been hovering over the team since the start of the season.
Lavoie began to wonder who would benefit from leaking this information? His idea is that Keith Tkachuk, Brady's father who currently works for the St. Louis Blues, would like to bring his son to town.
Who is whispering in Ryan Whitney's ear? Daddy Tkachuk? Look at the St. Louis Blues. There is dissatisfaction among some players of the Blues. Maybe there's something to do with that." - Renaud Lavoie
However, one thing seems to be clear from Ottawa's side, there is dissatisfaction in the air. Lavoie is certain that something is brewing in the federal capital and if it's not Tkachuk leaving, other big decisions will come.
Something is happening and it's happening in a certain way. I'm told there are players who are not happy with the way things are going with the Senators. And the leaders are not happy with how things are going with the young players in the organization. One thing is clear: whether Brady Tkachuk stays or not, big decisions will have to be made." - Renaud Lavoie
Steve Staios seems to be about to make his mark on his team. It remains to be seen whether he will take a few steps back to start a new rebuild or simply try to adjust things.
It looks like Brady is going to imitate Matthew and be traded...
