			<description><![CDATA[ Reading Eklund is like saying the Sens have a bright future, its inaccurate and most of the time gets a good laugh. Why are you here? You obvoiusly don't like the team and you lack what most would consider and KNOWLEDGE of hockey? Did we lose a bet? Are we cursed? Did they bad you from watching dancing with the starts so you have nothing better to do but piss us off? Do everyone a favor and join another group.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA["At this point, it does not look like Curtis McElhinney will return to serve as back-up next season in OTT." "Murray will also phone the agent for @ryanshannon26 on Thursday. Still a chance he is re-signed by OTT before July 1st." "Bryan Murray will have a phone chat with Kurt Kleinendorst on Thursday to schedule a formal interview." Ian Mendes via Twitter Signing Shannon would mean even less room for Murray's UFA hopeful. RS is actually a good player, but didn't think he is a guy we need moving forward.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Looks like the Spezza rumors are on again. No way the SENS could afford to lose him - would have to be one hell of an offer. Edmonton really needs a number one center + a good puck moving defenceman(and so on and so on). Sens should go after the Columbus pick or the Calgary pick. We need a third first rounder - would be nice. Murray do it!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ No way Grimaldi falls to 35. He will go in the top 25 for sure. Fair, but I only take him at 21 if all those other guys are gone. I don't really want to take him at 21, while he has huge upside and I think he could be great one day, it is simple to say he is a huge risk as well being so small. That major risk can be taken with our 2nd rounders.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote name="Tookie19" ]With Philly acquiring the rights to Bryzgalov, chance are Jeff Carter's days in a Flyers uniform will most likely come to an end. I would persue Jeff Carter at all costs. Love Carter's cap hit but hate the term. I think the best way to add an experienced top 6 center/winger would be to wait until July 1 when Sather signs Richards with a 7 million cap hit and then Murray signs Dubinsky or Callahan to an offer sheet. Hell, if he matches on one of them, Murray could then do the same thing with other. I just can't decide which one I like better. Of course thats if Sather doesn't get them signed by July 1. I also think that Columbus might make Philly a good offer for Carter in the hopes of finally landing a center for Nash.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Strange thread. Where to start. Coach - Preferred is Paul MacLean. I'd really like to see KK as an assistant coach however. Don't me wrong, I really like KK. He's a winner and has proven that time and again. I just have a feeling that MacLean is ready to be a head coach and has learned from one of the best. I also think he's the safest pick. Murray - I'm a big Murray fan, especially considering how he handled the house cleaning (Anderson in particular - for Elliott ... got to love that trade. Now, do I think he should make big free agent signings ... nooooooo. Stick to the plan, build through the draft, bring in MacLean and let's get it done. Future looks bright. Phillips - please shut up. It's done. He's under contract. It's not like we just signed Redden to $6M. Draft - any of the players they brought in work for me. Trade - please don't trade with Calgary unless it's for #13 or Backlund. Yes to trading with LA.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'd love to see either McLean or KK as the next head coach. I wasn't in favour of another coach with no substantial NHL level coaching... But winners are winners at every level, and respect from players is key. Mclean has been part of an organization that everyone has a ton of respect for, has been good forever, and players take pay cuts to play in. KK has won in the AHL, WJ, players seem to love him, and he demands a ton out of his players. He gets a ton of respect, and players want to play for him.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[UNBE..., I agree. If KK gets the job i will be very happy for him, the players and the organization. I think he might be the BEST guy for the job, but if not then at least there are a handful of excellent options this time and i trust the murrays (especially Tim). CC is a loser, KK is a winner. They can't be compared. That argument imo shows a lack of knowledge. They both coached in the AHL, similarities end there. Maclean, Muller would also be good options imo, but none of us know enough about all of them to decide.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I don't post too often but after reading the last few days of posts I have a few comments to make. 1) Almost everyone seems to disagree with what Tookie says. Why don't you guys just ignore him?? 2) I too would like to see McLean or Muller the next coach, but wouldn't mind KK. He seems to be much more of a players coach then Clouston and I think that's what the team needs. 3) Murray just wants to hire a coach he can control?? That's ridiculous and you can't prove that without knowing the guy personally. That being said, Murray was a decent coach himself and I hope he does work hand in hand with whoever we hire. I can only see that being a good thing. 4) Praise Alfie I seem to agree with pretty much everything you say. However I don't think Phillips is as useless as you do. Other then that keep up the great post bud! 5) Way to go Bingo!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Just listened to an interview of Alain Sancartier(Sens reporter) on the french radio station - he said he would be shocked if the head Coach wasn't DAVE CAMERON(SHIT-SH IT-SHIT). Supposedly Murray became unglued when media people questioned him about Cameron's failures to win the big one this year on 3 diff occasions. If he's right Murray is Melnyk"s puppet again. I hear Cameron mows melnyk's lawn in the summertime. I wouldn't touch Carter with a 10 foot pole either. Seems Flyers think that he's soft and supposedly he's been challenged by Richards a few times in their dressing room. Sens need character - Butler will pop a few goals with Spezza this year. Let our young players and picks develop we'll be OK> + TOOKIE thinks its a good idea so it has to be way off.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Murray's self-preservati on instinct overrides the good of the team with Murray. He'll react to either blame someone, fire someone or trade someone if things go badly. That's how he is, he doesn't take responsibility for his actions. I'll trust Murray when he puts together a team in Ottawa that goes to the Conference finals and beyond. As for Phillips, it was a good old boys signing and a nod to a vet, not a hockey signing...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[""The fact that he was in (the finals) is pretty much a compliment to him," the Senators general manager said. "You can say what you want about losing the big game, but when you put yourself in the position to be there, to be the guy who wins a league as far as the regular season, to get a chance to coach Team Can-ada, you've got to recognize that as a compliment to the man, as well." From Citizen. Read that as basically, winning isn't that important, just showing up to play a game is important. Not keeping my hopes up for the forseeable future.]]></description>

Yes I am suggesting we might take on one of their overpaid loafers just to stock another first round pick. What would make that sweeter will be if the ass-clowns in Toronto give up a pick for exclusive negotiating rights with Richards... but then he signs with NYR anyways, due in part to the fact that we facilitated it... *wrings his hands cackling madly*]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Wow lots of different topics going on here, where to start: Phillips is not good, stop defending him people, he's been on a massive decline for awhile now, and signing him to a 3 year contract with a NMC was pretty dumb when you consider the amount of D talent we have coming up in that amount of time. Kuba just needs to DIEEEEEEEEE.... Re: Carter - I wouldn't touch that monster contract with a 10 foot pole. If for some reason he got injured and was never the same, you're stuck with him and paying that. The risk I feel does not match the benefit. However, we could certainly fleece the Flyers with a trade for Leino! He'd be a perfect fit on this team!]]></description>

I wouldn't throw him to the wolves in the way the OP did but I was very disappointed in the 3rd year of his deal. very well said, I cannot for the life of me understand how you reward this with another 3 years, at just under 3 mil, with a NTC in the first year... it is very confusing, if not unresponsible. to be honest, I would have let him go to UFA and signed him for half if he really wanted to say in Ottawa.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I really do not like the Rookie new NHL coach. It has failed and as much as I love Murray as a talent genius, and his ability to build a team, he has alway gone with coaches that will not challenge him, history has proven this, he has never hired a coach with legit NHL experience, and pedigree. We need a coach that will call all the shots, and will not be intimidated by anyone else, above or below them. BM has alway hired coaches that would not be confrontational , and sometimes lets admit that some of BM's player choice signings should have been benched ie Kuba, Gonchar, Leclaire, and even Gerber. Someone with NHL pedigree will sit veterans, regardless of pay when they have to...this is only my opinion of course, but I may be wrong.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Incredible season down here! Starting with Daugavins crazy shootout goal in the preseason and ending with the Calder. All the great stories in between! Butler all-star mvp, Locke league mvp, Bass man of the year, Brust's cross checking ability, Lehner playoff mvp, Kinrade and Benoit carrying a decimated defense at the end of the season and start of playoffs. They both deserve a shout out! And the incredible incredible coaching staff, KK and Stirls not allowing any "passengers" no matter how touted a prospect or how veteran they were! Gotta head to the parade in a bit!!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[A little off topic. Quote from Lehner in the Bingo newspaper: "It's so good," Lehner said. "It's unbelievable. All you naysayers and critics, you can go hide somewhere. You can never take this away from me. I'm not saying I'm going to go play in the NHL. That's a long road ahead. But you can never take away from me that I'm a Calder Cup champion and that I got the MVP here." Well said kid.... well said.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Wow. You realize that last years stats cannot be compared to anything for any player. Erik Karlsson was in the bottom 3 last year as well for plus minus. You gonna say he needs to be gone too? Philips offers experience and off ice product. Ask Binghamton how it feels to have a vet that can offer experience on a team that had 15 players who never played an AHL playoff game and yet still managed to pull up the cup... you think someone like Benoit wasn't needed. Filip Kuba is the problem with this club as next year all defencemen should get better with a solid goalie who has good communication skills is behind them. Learn your hockey buddy instead of calling someone out for one lousy season...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Phillips Signing destroyed any hopes I had for this team Anyone who thinks Phillips is at all valuable to this team is a soft ass hockey fan who buys into NAMES and Off ice contributions, clearly ignoring the disaster he is on the ice. He didn't have the worst +/- in the league for no reason He is a doofus, he is aging and only going to get worse, if you can believe that. Expect another year of: Giveaways, bad passes, bad clears, dumb penalties, atrocious +/- , zero points... expect NOTHING good from the "big rig" Shut down my ass... He may be shutting down the sens, but that's about it. We made it to the cup finals and the doofus scores on his own fuckin net... Enough said]]></description>

He is 1 year into an 11 year 58Mil contract that has a cap hit of ONLY 5.2Mil per year, and with the cap increasing every year this locked 5.2Mil will be but a dot in the cap. He would fillthe 2nd C spot nicely I would think :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Another thing with the "Murray only hires coaches he can control and throw under the bus so he doesn't take the blame" statement... Murray was just extended a 3 year contract. Do you really think at this point, and after last year's horrible season, and after all the coaches we've already gone through, he's concerned that hiring a good coach who thinks freely will jeopardize his job? It's pretty obvious Melnyk extended him because he's giving him full control and obviously has no intention of firing him. Murray isn't worried about his job right now at all, especially since this team still has 1, if not 2 seasons of growing pains to go through. In Murray We Trust!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Grimaldi gets no respect at all and is often completely overlooked simply because his stature at a minuscule 5-6, 161 pounds. But he is the most explosive offensive force in the draft with dynamic speed and the best one-timer in this year's class. Despite his lack of size, he's aggressive, not afraid of traffic and is difficult to get a clean hit on because of his east-west agility. Sounds like another Tyler Ennis, would love to trade up a few spots to grab him too. Strome and Grimaldi would be a huge lift to this team.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I would like to see a coach that teaches a high-tempo offensive game. That's what the Sens & B-Sens are best at. He should have great rapport with his players... KK appears to have that (along with Stirling). Clouston was a good coach.. but lacked that rapport with his players...at least it seemed that way. With KK it seemed to come naturally... with Clouston it appeared to be forced... ie his congrat. to Karlsson on make the All-Star game. Also a nice touch by the B-Sens. They are taking the Cup to Stirling in the hospital... and are also letting him place the winning game puck in the final slot 'on their game board' for the 16th win. IF Stirling is healthy enough and able... what's wrong with him guiding the B-Sens next season. It's obvious the players have a lot of respect and feelings for him.]]></description>

He knows what's currently down on the farm and who among them should be starting for the big club in 11/12. He no doubt also has a good idea of what would be needed in terms of the top 6 to make an impact. f) He has no ambition (as far as I know) to become a GM at this point in his career, an apparent preoccupation of BM when it comes to hiring his coaches (at least based on the evidence of Hartsburg, Clouston et al.). Bryan doesn't want what happened to Muckler to happen to him.]]></description>
