Not quite, they both went through MoDos system and went to high school in Ö-vik, but neither grew up in Ö-vik or started playing hockey in MoDo.

Forsberg is from Härnösand where he started playing for AIK Härnösand. Still cool to see two guys who came up together through the junior ranks in MoDo getting reunited at the NHL level though!

Hating this trade for the Bruins. Ullmark's salary was only for one more year, now you take on a multi-year salary in Korpisalo. Even at 25% retained, it's way too much for a sub-par goalie in Korpisalo. I just don't feel like the Bruins are really saving that much (net) money next year and then you have a problem with an overpaid goalie in future years. Bruins also have another issue with Brandon Bussi, who was lined up to be Swayman's back up next season. Disappointingly surprised in Sweeney's performance here. Senators fans should be celebrating that they found a sucker to take Korpisalo (when his demand is rock bottom). Ullmark was a great Bruin and a quality human being. Sens fans will like him.

The bussi part of it is weird, I'd expect the Bruins to add a third goalie to not simply hand the spot to him, but that guy should be a league min for 1 or 2 years, having a substantial contract for 4 years korpisalo must be the long term plan as backup which leaves a promising goalie out in the cold

@@DanRaidersWarriorsSharksGiants Even if Ullmark walks the trade is still a big win for Ottawa. Dumping Korpisalo to another team probably woulda taken a 1st+ on its own. So the fact that they did that while also bringing back the reigning Vezina winner is a big win. Kastelic is a replacement level 4C that’s 25 so he’s hardly a big loss for the Sens either. Even if the Sens track to miss the playoffs next year they probably recoup most of this value in a Ullmark trade with 50% retained at the deadline. Korpisalo was arguable the worst goalie in the league last year and the primary reason the Sens struggled so much. I expect him to bounce back next year since it’s hard to be that bad in consecutive seasons, but he’s not some high end backup. Bruins woulda been better served to just bring in someone like Wedgewood for half the price and term.

I thought one of the reasons the Bruins needed to trade Ullmark was because they didn’t want to lose Brandon Bussi, who isn’t waiver exempt next season, and would likely be claimed if sent down to Providence. In Korpisalo, they get another 30 year goalie with 4 years left on his contract (albeit at a lesser AAV), , as opposed to Ullmark with one year left. It also doesn’t solve the Bussi situation. The only way this trade works for me is if they can flip Korpisalo or buy him out.

I love this from Ottawa's perspective because that Korpisalo contract looked like it was going to be so bad for Ottawa. Obviously he'd be better than he was last year, but for $4 million a year, you need a solid starter that you can rely on and Korpi didn't look like he'd be anywhere close to that. They didn't have to buy him out, they didn't have to trade a top tier prospect, and they add Ullmark. That's an Ottawa home run from my perspective

As a Sens fan, I'm very happy with this, I don't think they were going to give Ullmark up unless they gave a 1st round pick or a player that's on par with his skill. Kastelic I find is just a player to fill the roster, he's right and was more for a dump, maybe making room for another bottom-six player? Korpisalo was a major down, I found that he played well with LA in the playoffs so I was optimistic about his signing in Ottawa however this season proved to be the opposite, it's better for the team that he is gone but I wish him all the best in Boston. Ullmark will do good, but to get the best from him we need to shore up our defence, can't expect a goalie to spin on their head, even if they are very good.

Statistically, if you look at the win/loss percentage for the team when the goalie (either Forsberg or Korpi), was .900 or above, vs when they are below...it's a vast difference! The defense was a hot mess, but the system was a hot mess, that includes a management change, all sorts of coaching staff sent packing, ownership change and distractions like the Pinto suspension, the Dadynov thing, Norris injuries, etc. This coming year, things have settled down and the team structure is more in control of their direction. That said, is they dookie up the bed again, i'm just going to sit back and watch the forest burn. I'm confident that Staios is going to address the defense issue next, as well as stocking the shelves in reserves.

They're paying $3 mil for Korpisalo and while there's evidence to suggest he can thrive with a good defense in front of him, he's still a significant downgrade to Ullmark. Overall, they traded a Vezna winner and proven goalie to save 2 mil on an experiment, regain a draft pick that they traded, and acquiring yet another 4th line guy. Maybe there's more to come, but it's not a good look at the moment.

I'd honestly like to see Boston flip Korpisalo to someone else for more draft capital; and go with Swayman/Bussi for next season in net. At only $3M, maybe Philly, Detroit, or someone else needs to solidify their goaltending

Very clear idea of the goalie market. Ullmark is better and younger than markstrom but has one year less on his contract, and the price was a very reasonable amount higher than what NJD paid for markstrom. Great job by Ottawas gm to throw Korpiaslo in there.

I mentioned on my podcast that people need to temper expectations when trading away a goalie. Calgary fans still aren't happy with the return on Markstrom. You like your goalie more than other teams do. Gonna miss Linus in Boston, but I also don't mind the return. Korpisalo as a back up 26-32 games a year is fine, he's only taking up 3.4% of the total cap hit. Goalie Bob will get the best out of him.

Here’s what Boston needs to do. 1. Flip Korpisalo for a center. This should be easy because Ottawa retained 25% of the salary. Boston needs a number one center. 2. Draft a Winger with the pick. Boston does not have that many actual Right Wingers, a lot are Centers. 3. Let Brandon Bussi come into a backup role behind Swayman. He should only be playing around 20-25 games a season to let him develop.

I think people are underestimating Essensa here. Look at how many goalies he’s churned out into great net minders. I think Korpisalo at $3m has massive upside even if we’re just going to flip him. Yeah if he plays like he did in Ottawa we’re fucked but if he gets back to his columbus days and we flip him we’ll get two firsts for a backup goalie who had 1 year left. Everyone’s hating but I think this has a decent upside and could make Sweeney look like a genius 8 months from now.

This! You nailed it. The bruins are better defensively too, plus korpi wont be asked to be the starter and his minutes will be lower. Korpi can be good, but ott isnt a great team, they Boston bought low on a guy, and to be fair im not 100% sold on ulmark, i saw him play in the playoffs and he's ok(maybe average), just not great. With that in mind put the ott defense in front of him and there maybe issues.

This is a great trade for Korpi and Kastelic and Bussi too, don't have to get thrown under a bus for not meeting delusional expectations. Not so much a great deal for either team or Ullmark though. Sens fooled me once to believe they could have adequate defensive structure and some semblance of Identity and integrity. I won't be fooled again and Ully will probably have a solid barely .900 save % and bottom 5 in every other goalie category. Or roughly the same numbers as Korpi will have as a back up in Boston.

Can't understand how any hockey fan doesn't see that it is the bruins that make great goalies, not the other way around. Not to say that they aren't quality net minders. Just saying that the senators do not have a valuable structure were as the Bruins have had incredible goalies for over two decades. At this point, if you think Ullmark( who i respect and screamed for him to come to Boston) was a Vezna goalie in Buffalo, i beg you to delve into his career. Talented, yes, not Vezna. Korpisallo in Columbus was a superior goalie for the team he was on. Getting the pick back was important for the future which they morgaged trying to get a cup. Paying your debts is important even though you've already spent the money and now have to struggle. They are trying to climb out of a hole they created to get a cup. Didn't hear any fans complaining then. Let's think about this reasonably and realize the team is making the right moves to continue the success that all Boston fans have been lucky enough to have.

As long as Ottawa get Ullmark to extend this is a really good trade for Ottawa, they really needed an upgrade in goal. If he gets flipped at the trade deadline because he doesn't want an extension ,it won't look so good. I'm guessing he's already been asked and said he would extend?

Don't hate it for Boston. Ullmark hasn't got an extension and wouldn't be re-signing there anyway with Swayman taking start position. And if Ottawa has a bad year, Ullmark will move on from them too. It's a first and a bottom 6 center for 1 year of a goalie who really hopes he won't be fed to the wolves like Korpi was. Korpi redemption arc will be beautiful.

@christophermaciejko4610 I get it. Truly especially how good Ulmark. His consistency is something you don't often see in the goalie position. If I were Boston I'd flip that pick into a top forward with another young piece. But then you have to ask, are they retooling after a season where most were surprised they were so good. I still think Lindholm signs with the Bs. So the next few weeks should be interesting.

Who knows weather or not he can have a bounce back year or if Ottawa's defense was, at least partially, responsible for his bad season. Either way I'm glad the Sens were able to unload most of his contract. I'm ok with Forsberg as the backup. Kastelic was expendable in my opinion.

I don’t hate this trade because the Bruins didn’t need ullmark anyway, I mean sway is that guy, and if he can play 50- 60 games a year they don’t really need to worry about a back up. And korpi spent one year in Ottawa one of the worst defensive teams in the league. In Boston he’ll be playing significantly less games and I think he’ll do fine. The first round pick they get the future. I’m not saying they won this trade, but it’s definitely not as horrible as everyone makes it out to be. And I am often critical at Don Sweeney at times, but I think this was OK. Plus, everyone knew about how Boston was going to trade him same with markstrom and it’s the new reality of how much these goalies are worth especially since they are 30 years and and older

If a team has an impending free agent that they cannot afford to re-sign, it makes sense to trade him for some assets. But does this apply to Ullmark? Why shouldn't a team spend money for two elite goaltenders if they are fortunate to have them? Suppose that the Bruins chose to re-sign Swayman for $8-9 million and Ullmark for $6-7 million. The salary cap will likely reach $100 million in three years. That would mean the Bruins would be spending 15% of their salary cap on goaltending. I know that's more than more teams do now, but I find it puzzling how little many spend on the most important position. On the other hand, it is refreshing to see the Bruins acquiring a draft pick. When was the last time they traded for a first-rounder? The pick they acquired is their own originally, the cost paid for the expensive rental of Tyler Bertuzzi.

This has L written all over for Ottawa - the only thing that will convince Ullmark to sign an extension is if the Senators are in a playoff contention. Which in a stacked Atlantic Division will always be a tall order - they are a Wildcard team at best. If they fail, they've traded 2 players and a 1st round pick for 1 year of Linus Ullmark.
