According to TSN’s Darren Dreger, the Ottawa Senators have kicked tires on Minnesota Wild defenceman Matt Dumba. During tonight’s ‘Insider Trading’ segment, Dreger reported: “When I think of a team that may have a defenceman available, I think of Matt Dumba and the Minnesota Wild. There’s no question that both the Edmonton Oilers and Ottawa Senators have reached out and do have interest in Dumba. Why wouldn’t you? He’s 28 years old and he’s a pending unrestricted free agent. The problem from the Wild’s standpoint is that they need him. They’re playing pretty well right now. They are not sure just yet they are willing to move on from Matt Dumba — even though you look into the future and see the cap issues of the Minnesota Wild. But, as you alluded to, the price would be high and then the Wild would have to hit the market potentially to replace Matt Dumba.”
