			<description><![CDATA[Ottawa will have 3 ,23 min forwards this year Alfi ,Spezza and Michalek Butler ,Regin and Filatov should be good for 17 after Neil, Foligno and Winchester suck up their time Zack Smith ,Condra and Greening and the 13th forward will have to take rookie ice time until 1 of the top 9 excludes himself or has himself excluded All this talk about the prospects taking over the team has got me nervous about this years expectations There just isn't that much room yet. If Butler and Filatov threaten Alfi and Milans ice time and 1 rookie d-man makes the jump I'll be happy But I don't expect to see more than 1 of the "real" new guys until another spot opens up,if Regin ,Foligno and Winnie step up big this year I won't be disappointed when only DaCosta or Daugavins sees the NHL]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The good news for Ottawa Senators fans is that the Murray's have actually been rebuilding parts of the franchise for longer than some care to realize. Alfie is left off the below list on purpose. Not line combos just an observation that's easier to read: X - Spezza - Butler Michalek - Zibanejad - X The Senators probably hope and expect at least one of Noesen, Filatov, or Puempel to fill one of these two open X spots within the next three years. I fully expect Bobby Butler will establish himself as a regular top six forward on the Sens roster this year and I think the organization expects this as well. That basically leaves one remaining forward slot for the likes of Foligno, Regin, Hoffman, Wick, O'Brian, Greening, Condra, et all to fight over during the next three years of team development - and in all likelihood we'll draft someone better than those guys eventually. The future T6F in Ottawa is being built right before our eyes.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Roflmao at people wanting the team to go for the playoffs again right away. You do realize that's the Leafs blueprint right? How has that worked out for them again? That's how you get stuck in endless mediocrity. Look at the Oilers. They're stockpiling prospects and as they develop the team will improve. If they went out and blew their wad on 3-4 free agents the team would get considerably better quickly - but the chances of building a long-term contender decrease dramatically. It's simple - you have to be willing to suck for a while if you want to build a special team. It's just much easier to build a contender that way.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Um, you don't think getting rid of Fisher, Kelly, Ruutu, Kovalev, Leclaire, Elliott, Shannon and Campoli is enough change? Pretty much HALF our opening day roster will be different than last year. I hate this phrase but "give your head a shake". I meant change to make the team better. i thought with the right moves we could be playoff competitive this upcoming season. But it's more going to be a learning curve and a "fresh start" if you will. I think the season after the next will be in the favor of the Sens. It's called a re-build.. and to do it right.. takes a few years, not overnight.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Nope - Neil's not going anywhere. The rebuild is being centered around Spezza, Alfie, Phillips and Neil. Neil ain't going anywhere. Agreed. This season will be about the young guys getting more experience with the NHL game pace. Then in 2012/13 (hopefully there is one) season.. adding in Zibby & Silfverberg will be even better. Question is... who goes so they can make room? My first guess, if he doesn't up his game this season... is Regin.. after that.. who knows?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I was standing behind the white team bench for the scrimmage last night. I don't know about most of you but Zibanijad impressed me the most. He looked great until about 2 or 3 minutes into the second half when he came off the ice after being high sticked and was missing a couple teeth. He didn't have another shift after that and he went to the dressing room. Silfverberg looked like he was hurting big time. I think he was breaking in a new pair of skates because he was limping a lot and looked to be in a fair amount of discomfort every time he came to the bench. One more thing... How sick are Petersson's hands? Kids got great skill he just needs to take some miracle grow or something lol]]></description>

Pretty much HALF our opening day roster will be different than last year. I hate this phrase but "give your head a shake". Try this instead - Something I heard a drill sargeant tell a guy in the ranks once (after he messed up). "Troop..hang your head...look at your right foot...and now your left. Good...now repeat the process again and again....good. Now think about what you did son!" Sorry...it may sound lame but it always stuck in my head when I saw it.

			<description><![CDATA[The turn around season will be the season after the upcoming. 2012-2013: Winchester, Kuba, Carkner, and a possible Alfredsson :( retirement would allow for a ton of cap space for the Sens in this year. Regin, Da Costa, Filatov, Foligno, will all be restricted. This season would also have Silfverberg and Zibanejad likely to make the jump. Also, our young D prospects would have had a year of NHL experience under their belt. Couple that with a stronger Free Agent pool: Kunitz, Semin, Sharp, Samuelsson, Penner, Stoll, Hemsky, Grabovski, Liles, Suter, David Jones. Murray seems to be comfortable with little outside change and more of it internally. I think this is appropriate for the time being. We aren't expected to make the playoffs, so this season will be a learning curve for the top prospects. We would also have a high DP. This year will be fun to watch, next season should be a push to be competitive again.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I thought the line of Silfverberg, Pageau, and Prince was amazing! They had speed, hustle, and decent chemistry. Not only that, but all three players have wicked shots! It would be nice to see the three of them together for the 3-on-3 tourny on Monday. In the second half of the scrimmage, there was a chance when Team White hit the post on a great chance set up by Rundblad. He received the puck at the point and, with his head up the whole time, ripped a low shot along the ice for a rebound. The player, it might've been Silfverberg, ringed it off the far post. Baaah! Team White finally got some momentum from that play and then scored on the following shift. I want to remind everyone that most of these players are still rusty, even though it was their third day of the development camp. The prospects will be bulking up, improving their skating, etc. before coming back to Ottawa for the real test in September (or is it August).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[^^^ He seems to be nhl ready though. Even Tim Murray thinks so and he mentioned on the 1200 that he's "pissed" that he's going back to Sweden. I think it's because J.S. doesn't like the possibility of playing in the AHL. Anyway what can I do. I think the biggest turnaround season for the Sens will be the season after this. We will have a lot of cap space due to expiring contracts and a possible retirement, as well as ready prospects and a better FA pool. Kinda skeptical about this season I must say. I thought Murray was all about change. Clearly that isn't going to be the case.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ "I feel like, for myself, that I need to get bigger and stronger, and better in every aspect of the game," said Silfverberg. a second-round pick (39th overall) by the Senators in the 2009 NHL Entry Draft. "The Swedish Elite League is a very good league for development, so another year there and then I'll come over and try to make the team." i would be happy if he goes back or if he decides to stay. either way better be safe than sorry. in a year we will be very happy to have him]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I think 1 name we may see disappear tomorrow is Chris Neil. Sens have some tough grit and energy to replace him.. Package him and preferably Kuba for a bit of an upgrade in the goals department. We'll simply rack up too many penalty minutes with Neil, Smith and Carkner on the same team.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Stamkos won't be signing in Ottawa regardless of whether the offer-sheet is made or not. He's staying in Tampa and everyone talking about the possibility of him going elsewhere is just blowing smoke in hopes of getting hits. It makes zero logical sense unless someone massively overpays via trade not to just give him the money considering both Lecavalier and St.Louis are aging.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Anyways, overall, how did Big Z look offensively and defensively? Could Da Costa play this season you think? And Silfverberg: is he NHL ready? Thanksss! Zibanejad looked solid in all 3 zones. He had a number of scoring chances. He definitely stood out. I think Da Costa could benefit from some "seasoning" in Bingo, just like Butler did, but he could be on the roster by the end of the season. I absolutely think Silfverberg could make the team this year. Definitely NHL ready. Every time he was on the ice, you noticed him, and for the right reason. Maybe with another year in the SEL, he'll get stronger and come here next year and dominate. There's no question, he's a Top 6 forward.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Re: Your questions, my opinion: Zibanejad - offensively strong, defensively strong. Backchecked like crazy, won almost every faceoff, finished all checks, went hard to the net. I thought he was excellent, looks just about NHL ready to me. Da Costa - Very strange. During practices, I feel like something is missing, yet in the games, he looks very comfortable and capable. He was truly one of the best forwards on the ice tonight. If he can get a chance to play with some good wingers (Alfie and Michalek for example), I think maybe he could play. But he'll be no good if they try to play him with grinders. Silfverberg - will jump straight to the NHL next year. No question, he will bypass the minors.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Agreed. Filatov was our top 6 fwd. IF..if he signs another fwd, it'll be a 1yr deal that he can turn into a draft pick at the deadline I like your thinking bud. Turn a 1-year "filler" type of guy into a potential draft pick later in the year. First on my list for this type of player would be Jason Arnott. However I have a feeling he wouldn't want to sign a 1-year deal with a team at the age of 36. But who knows...if hes available as the days tick tock away into the summer...he just might do it.]]></description>

With his skates on he was pretty close to his head hitting the door frame, coming out of the locker room. I'm tired of all the Richards crap too. At least its not as bad as all the Kovalchuk garbage last year. Surprised Erhoff signed. Weird numbers though 10yrs x $40million.]]></description>

We also heard at the Hot Stove with the management team, that Gryba had minor surgery as well. Ben Blood is huge... Free agency tomorrow... I will be glad when someone signs Richards tomorrow -- I'm getting really tired of Richards to the Leafs... What do you guys think of the Erhoff contract?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Development Camp - Day 3 - Scrimmage Top White: Zibanejad (until he took a stick in the face); Silfverberg (damn you for going back to Sweden); Prince (probably benefited most being on a line with Zibanejad and Silfverberg) ; Borowiecki; Pageau Top Black: Cowen; Filatov; Petersson; Hardest workers: Blood (skates like my grandma, but the kid was working); Kramer; Dziurzynski; Hoffman; Hamilton; Sorensen - I felt these 6, although not standouts, they were working every shift. I was quite impressed with Sorensen. Underwelming: Rundblad (didn't do much offensively, but was solid defensively using his stick and positioning. Expected more though); Noesen; Stone; De Costa; Wiercioch (At this point, I'd put Borowiecki ahead of him on the depth chart).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[i just came back from scrimmage. most impressive player: silfverberg. the guy hit the crossbar and post a total of 3 times and i believe he scored the last goal for team white. he has a wicked shot and he had atleast 5 take aways. petersson had lots of really sweet moves protecting the puck and he potted a goal too. filatov had a few chances to explode down the ice and e took full advtange but couldnt score. cowen was pure dominant, an awesome D pairing today was cowen and weircicoch, i believe if wierdo can put on 10-15lbs in next year or so. that can be a true deadly pairing. zibanejad took an elbow to the face, he right away skated off and went to locker room and never came back. however i know someone that spoke to dorion in the meet and greet after the game. and asked about Z's condition and dorion said it was nothing more than just a cut lip, no injuries (thank god) thanks for all the fans that showed up]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Back from scrimmage, black wins 3-2. Black had 2 goals from Dziurzynski and one from Petersson. White goals from Hoffman and Grant. Black's top 5: Petersson, Cowen, Da Costa, Dziurzynski, Filatov White's top 5: Zibanejad, Pageau, Rundblad, Silfverberg, Borowiecki Da Costa was surprising, I thought he looked weak in the previous two days, but he was very strong in the game. Zibanejad won nearly every faceoff, finished his checks, was offensively dangerous and defensively responsible. He took a high stick and appeared to lose a tooth, and he did not return to the game. Afterwards, the first question came from a guy who, in his own words, knew that Zibanejad was not NHL ready but felt that Mark Stone was a darkhorse to make the team. I don't know what game he was watching, but that's about the exact opposite of what I observed. Anyways, I saw that whole thing becoming a gong show, so I took off. Good game though.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Shannon to test the Free Agent market, with the possibility of Ottawa resigning him. Really like him I must admit. He's actually a very skilled player, but there's not really any room on the roster for him. There's still a logjam in the bottom six and in the D, surprised trades haven't been made yet. Would like to see Murray get a second line centre on a one year deal to give Big Z one more year in Swden. Regin imo shouldn't be risked at the second line C, and Da Costa I would love to see there, but that's uncertainty. Fleischmann would be awesome. Connolly would be okay. Gotta love the off season!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Thanks for whoever it was saying Butler had to training camp to decide. Although it's odd that it's not something that's signed right away considering the market and the gap between the season, were if he were to deny he'd have a better chance getting signed somewhere else. Not saying h wants too. Anyway as Chirp mentioned on twitter Matheiu Garon would be an excellent back up! ps stop with "injury probe" people get injured deal with it, but the fact they come back and keep it going is worth signing any injuries horse for. Would you throw Alfredsson under the bus too? Then lighten up Simon Gagne would be an awesome addition to this team.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[One name I would truely like BM to go after is Tomas Fleischmann. It seems pretty logical, and the kid can score. The only thing is, is he still injured or something??? Why hasn't his name come up? I'd rather have him than Gagne/Leino or any other wingers that are out there. check it: Filatov-Spezza- Butler MM9-Zibby-Alfie Fleishmann-Gree ning-Folgino winnie-z.smith- neil Extras:Condra/d acosta Gonchar-Runblan d Karlsson-Kuba (puke in my mouth) Cowen/lee-Phill ips Extra: Carks/lee or Cowen The Andswer ????Back up Not bad.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ you're kidding right? Bouwmeester has 7 goals and 53 pts in two years with your team. Karlsson almost had that many points last year (45) in an injury shortened year for the lowest scoring team in the league. He's also only 20 with nowhere to go but up. I get why you need to take out some frustration. Calgary has the worst outlook of any team except maybe Dallas. Want Erixon back? yea I thought so...]]></description>

If we get someone that translates to any value at the deadline that likely means we finish higher than we would have without him.

Are you claiming to be connected to some insider or are you just unable to admit your assumption might not be correct? Richards for $7M+? Leino after one decent season? Selane at 41 years old? Jagr at 39? Gagne so he can be injured? Vrbata at 30? Cole so he can be injured? Connolly so he can be injured? I just don't see that many bonafide top 6 guys (the above list is suspect even). The few that are out there will get overpaid big time. No thanks. For what they'll cost versus what they'll add to our team I don't want any of these guys.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Signing Sullivan and putting him in a role to succeed then flipping him at the deadline for a 2nd or 3rd rounder wouldn't be a bad plan. Ammo to move up if we play a little better than expected this year. It doesn't really matter who we get. However whoever we do get if we add a forward I'd prefer a one year deal, a guy coming off a bad year, and a guy that could be shipped for value later on. So someone like Ryder although after the playoffs hard to say he had an off year.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'd love to buy him out and have him gone. It would be the best thing since somebody offered to cut my bread up for me before I buy it. I would be delighted if both Cowen and Rundblad both make the team next year and we were forced into moving Kuba early in the season or ideally before the season starts (tomorrow in fact, trade him tomorrow) but I don't think they do. I don't believe they will be seen as 2 of our best 6 dmen at the start of the season next year. Kuba isn't the only spanner in the works. Lee's significant improvement towards the back end of last year creates problems (albeit pleasant ones to have).]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Ah ok, thanks for the clarification. I think his minutes could just be better served elsewhere. I agree Weircioch and Gryba would be long shots, but with Phillips, Gonchar, Karlsson, Cowen, Rundblad, Lee and Carkner we already have a full D. Good point on it possibly hurting us next year if we want to spend to the ceiling, but fortunately by then the Cheechoo, Emery and Alfie buyouts will be off the books. I do agree the preference should be to move him though.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I never said you did, i was putting forth my reasons for why I don't think a Kuba buy out would happen and one of those in my opinion is that it doesn't improve us enough to be worthwhile. This year we don't need to spend to the cap, next year with Kuba gone, our prospects a year or so better and readier we might have more incentive to spend money. Why have Kuba buyout money working against us. Your reasons to get rid of him are mostly valid although I think it is a stretch for some of the players you mentioned to be significantly hampered by him taking up a roster spot. Gryba and WireCock are only getting significant playing times if something pretty drastic happens with the 8 or 9 dmen ahead of them on the depth chart. I just don't believe that either EM or BM have the desire to buy him out. that might change if Cowen and Rundblad blow the roof off at camp.]]></description>

He is not as good as our top 6 D-men. In fact David Hale is better then him so I would have to say that he is not even in our best 8 or 9 D-men. How can you justify haveing him in your lineup, when people are paying top dallar to watch your best? And what does that say to the better players who have to go to the minors? Clean up that mess whatever it takes!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I'm pretty sure I didn't say it would make us a contender. All this talk about EM not wanting to buy out another contract, but look at the actual financials, it would be cheaper or the same cost as having him play the year out. And it's not just Cowen/Rundblad he's taking time from, it's also Lee, Carkner and possibly Gryba or Weircioch. There are more reasons to get rid of him then to keep him, and the only reason to keep him is what, not to have another buyout on BM's track record?]]></description>

The thing is it does make us significantly better and Melnyk has been a great owner when it comes to spending money. I wouldn't begrudge him saving some this year. In other news I spoke to a friend who works on the money sie of things at the sens who confirmed they are looking at getting a new scoreboard in "the near future" but were in discussions about how to finance it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Replacing Kuba with any dman currently in our system or playing anywhere else on the planet does not make this team a legitimate contender. Kuba playing on this team next year in place of either Cowen or Rundblad, whilst not ideal, does not sound the death knell for that player's development. Kuba leaves here when somebody decides that they want to trade for him. There is no desire for this team to spend up to the cap this year and I would be really surpised if EM agreed to buy out yet another contract. I read somewhere that BM has bought out more contracts than any other GM, why would he want to add to that list? I'm sorry to all the Kuba ill wishers but I think he's here until the deadline at least unless he's traded.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Dork I completely agree with you, defensemen need a little more time to mature, and he improved incredibly in the last part of the year, so much so that was a better D-man then the beloved Phillips by season end. He will have a strong year this year, do not give up on him, he has been unfairly punished for being picked 9th.]]></description>
