			<description><![CDATA[ Just wanted to point something out RE "If Spezza were able to hit" ... Don't tell me bullshit like this when a guy like Nathan Gerbe (shortest player in the NHL) has 20 hits and Spezza, who ppl forget is 6 foot smthg, has 8 hits. It comes down to how much you want it. If you make 7 mill, you better lead by example and at least make an effort. No one expects him to be a Lucic and destroy other players, but at least let them know you're there! Also can add to your list "I prefer if he would battle on the boards"]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Chara will get in anyway (actually I voted for him). Heatley won't show even if he is voted in... can you imagine him spending about 4 days in Ottawa? Hossa, Havlat.. I have no problem with them... BUT vote in your Sens... (I could not vote for Gonchar over Chara) or Anderson over Lehtinon... Maybe Leaf fans should be looking at voting their own players in -- rather than ones Ottawa (they assume) does not want to see?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@andreas dackell... Please tell me when I said that Spezza sucks. I only said that he hasn't been anywhere near as good as we need him to be in the last 6 or 7 games. You can also tell me when I said Michalek and Karlsson are better than Spezza because I'm pretty sure I never said that either. Please make sure you actually read people's comments before questioning them.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[i understand that spezza isnt perfect... I would prefer: -if he was able to hit -if he was a better judge of when to try to dangle or not -if he scored everygame and clearly showed that "unstoppable will to win" every game -if he was more responsible defensively -if he didn't turn the puck over so often BUT! its not a perfect world! spezza isn't gonna be sidney crosby or gretzky. he has his flaws. i'm not gonna lie i would rather have a hand ful of other players at center to be honest. but i would take him over 95 percent of the centers out there. he is elite. his record shows it.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I agree, imo I dont think we will be a playoff team so making a move to help at 2C would only squash our chances at getting more picks, as surely we would have to give some up for those young guys. I can see Kuba and Lee leaving at the deadline for picks. Stick to the plan, rebuild with picks and let the young guys we do have grow. Well , we have a "new and soft-spoken" Tookie on the SensChirp website !! Welcome aboard !!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[i am frustrated by people that call spezza anything other than elite. for most critics i think its just about never being happy with what they have! teams that dont have a high scoring or play making center would DIE to get spezza! look at nashville, columbus, toronto, newyorkrangers( dishing out HUGE bucks to get BR), etc. you gotta be grateful that we have spezza!! for the other critics who just have a weird definition of the word elite, i say: more that a point per game average is pretty darn elite(regular season and playoffs)! by most peoples definition eric stall, rick nash, zach parise, vincent lacavelier, and jarome iginla(the list goes on) are ELITE players. but spezza is clearly scoring more than all of them this year. BTW what is your def of elite?? this reminds me of a few years ago when alfie was getting masacred by everyone for being the reason we never succeeded in the playoffs. and a lot of thought he could be traded.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm all for shuffling one or two or three players out of town at this time, just to free up some room, especially on the back end. I'd rather see us get picks/prospects back however. This "buzz" about Turis, Brassard et al is pretty ludicrous given that we aren't a quarter of the way into the schedule yet. If it comes to deadline week and we are in 7th in the East or something, I can swallow Murray justifying a move for help at 2C and maybe make a little noise in the playoffs. Until then however, bolstering our team to maybe finish 10th in the East instead of 12th... that would be stupid. Free ourselves of Kuba or give Lee a chance to play on another club, but don't approach this as making a splash to immediately improve the club. It's not time yet.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I dont vote and if I would only Spezza, Michalek and Karlsson would be on my ballot...the whole point of the All-Star game is to send players deserving of it to get a chance to have fun and get noticed...Alfie doesnt deserve to go to it this year, its not about what he's done in the past, its about what he's done so far. Many other players deserve to be infront of him, alos Phillips and Gonchar...joke. ..]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[At sens army and afm or anyone else bashing spezza, i understand how you feel spezza has been bad the past few games but id like to know how you think karlsson and michaleks play have been so much better than his? they have been pretty bad too. dont get me wrong, these are 3 of my fav sens but you guys havent really made any good arguments other than spezza sucks. If so how is he so much worse than karlsson or michalek who you seem to praise. it sure cant be karlssons defence that youre so impreesed with.]]></description>

This "fan voting" has become a total sham, and hilarious farce ! No Sportscasters or writers allowed ! Voting should only be done by General Managers and Head Coaches , and only one vote each, period !]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[@sensarmy.... I agree with you and AFM (and others) about Spezza. I mentioned, a couple weeks ago, that I didn't think he was an elte center. Not many people on this site agreed with me. My problem with Spezza, specifically, is that he has no sense of time or place. He makes the same dangle at our blue line as he does at the other teams blue line. He makes the same high-risk move when we're trying to protect a one goal lead, late in the third, as he does when we're down by a couple. In a nutshell, I question his hockey sense. I know I will get plenty of disagreement, and I'm sure (and I hope) most be more well thought out than "all you Spezza haters can lick my balls"... If you can't come up with anything more intelligent than that, I suggest you ask for help at recess.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Thats the responsibility you assume when you ask for the big bucks. Its the same for every team in every sport. Who gets the blame when the Caps dont win the cup? O.V. Who gets the blame when Vancouver doesnt win the cup? Luongo. etc. P.S. I only said he didnt deserve to be an allstar, didnt put the blame solely on him for the losing streak]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Yahoo Sports has an article describing "Project Mayham", where a Leafs fan is trying to sabotage the All-Star Game voting by having fans pick former Sens to rub our faces in it (Chara, Hossa, Havlat, Heatley, etc...) This is why I hate fan voting and have never done so or ever will... (...and I recognize those who are stuffing the ballot box full of Sens for no other reason than they're Sens are no better...)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Chirp, I have no problem when Spezza has a bad game or two, but he's been pretty bad for the past 6 or so. We know Spezza is capable of playing a solid 3 zone game, we've seen him play smart hockey, but in the last handful of games there's no denying that he's really strayed away from what made him so great in the second part of last season and in the early parts of this year. He needs to get back to playing that way, we all know he's capable of it. Actually, the way he's played lately has lead me to believe that perhaps he's playing through a fairly irritating injury. The point is, he needs to play like the new and improved Spezza that we saw in the second half of last season, and not the old bone-headed Spezza. I'll support the guy through thick and thin, but I have no problem calling out a player who isn't playing to their fullest.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[To sum it all up on Spezza, he was very hot and on a roll in 6 game winning streak, but in past few games, he just ran out, of whatever gas he used in winning streak! This is why I have said before ,that he is not an "elite" player, but rather a great or better than average player. sensarmy is more frustrated with Spezza, because he feels that Spezza is underachieving in past few games . He has to get rolling again, and he will !!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I'm a big Spezza fan, I'll always support him, but If anyone here is the least bit satisfied with his play in the last 6 or 7 games then shame on you. Outside of his work in the face-off circle, he has been very frustrating to watch. Again, I'm not bashing him, I'm happy to have him on my team, but he needs to get his act together because in the last handful of games or so, he's been setting a pretty bad example on the ice for the younger guys on the team.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I just did my voting and I'm going to be honest, I couldn't bring myself to vote for Spezza, Michalek, Gonchar and Anderson. I'm paying good money to go see this game and I want to see the most deserving players and the top players in the world involved. Plus I watch these Sens players 82 games a year, I don't need to see them in an ASG, especially if it's at the expense of more deserving players. I did however vote for Alfie because this will be his last chance to play in an ASG and it would be special for him to play in front of all of his biggest fans. I voted for Karlsson too, no explanation needed there :) Patty Kane-Giroux-Alf ie Karlsson - Letang Fleury I considered voting in Elliott lol]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Funny how because I dont think hes all-star worthy means im "turning on him". To answer your question: 1. goals are harder to get than assists, therefore second in goals is more of an achievment than having more total points. 2. Its harder to get points from a defensive position than an offensive one. I hope this was a simple enough explanation for you...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[[quote name="sensarmy" ] Yea cuz im the first and only to question Spezza's work ethic and toughness. I guarantee you that im one of the only ppl here that has watched every minute of every game this season, even in 7-2 losses. So why dont you go join Leafs nation and their clown coach who have proclaimed Phaneuf as the Norris winner. you are not even close to being the first to question spezza. In fact you seem like one of the many embarrassing excuse for a sens fan that are so quick to turn on spezza when things are going wrong. where did this spezza bashing go when we were on the win streak? I am a little confused how you defend karlsson and michalek (and i agree they both shoud be there) with their leading in goals or assist, but someone who is better than both of these players in total points is not worthy? if goals and assists are so important, than why are they not just as important together? Id like to hear your thoughts.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Have to disagree with you there Chirp. I see it as complete opposite. I think the play of Greening and 9MM on the boards is the only reason Spezz ever even gets a chance with the puck. I have yet to see him really battle for the puck on the boards or stand infront of the net despite the fact that he is a big guy. When you see how hard Alfie works being an older and smaller guy, makes you wonder how much more Spezza could do if he didn't shy away from contact. Also a majority of his points came on the win streak, he was completely invisible on the losing streak. And on the point of Karlsson ... he deserves more credit than you're giving him. He creates most of the offensive chances for the forwards. Saying Spezza plays "a huge part" in his success is so incorrect.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Chirp do you get the sense that these discussions are a lot like the ones BM had at this time last year, in the sense that they're just laying the groundwork for deals closer to the trade deadline? Or did you get the feeling it might be something more imminent if it were to happen?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Man guys if you are voting in the likes of Anderson you are making the whole process more of a farce than it already is.....Bunch of homers. We have a few legit guys who could go...Alfie because he deserves one last time and at home would be great(not sure anyone else around the league would agree at this stage though) Karlsson because he has stepped up his offensive game this season, and frankly the all-star game isn't somewhere to showcase defensive defensemen. Othere than that it is really a stretch]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[So after Kuba finally leaves later this year, who is going to be Karlsson's defensive partner of the future? Rundblad - Cowen seem to have already formed some chemistry, so that would leave the options between Phillips, Gonchar, Weircioch (ya right), Lee, Gryba and Borowiecki? Do you think there's anyone in that group that can line up with him, or will this force Cowen to be his partner instead? I'm assuming Carkner is gone after this year too, or re-signed as the 7th guy on D.]]></description>

They have heart and never quit drive and thats why they are going to win a lot of games and have a chance to squeak into a playoff spot. Depends how developed they are once they reach playoffs as to how far they go from there. thats the way I see them. The only way I want a lottery pick is if we trade for one.]]></description>

Smith could realistically play 10-12m a night as 4th line C, being our 1 number 1 PK guy given a 60 minute allocation for our C why not: Spezza-20m brassard-15m Zibs-15m smith-10m michalek-spezza -greening alfie-Zib/Brass -foligno da costa-zib/brass -silfverberg condra-smith-ne il]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[his cap hit is not way too high. just over 3 mill for a 2C??? scan the league and let me know what their cap hits are for 2C. now factor in a 45point 17 goal campaign last year, local boy who can create and play well defensively (think vermette but more offense upside maybe less defense) its a great cap hit for a 24 year old. in terms of space, I've always been a big believer in never changing the position of your top draft choice, regardless if he sucks on the draw do not move Zib t the wing. he is our top prospect, keep where he is natural. If we are to acquire brassard move da costa to the wing...since we aren't too invested in him in terms of development.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Brassard IS a high level prospect. Not every prospect reaches their potential in the first 3 years in the league. The kid is only 24 and would fit well in the rebuild.

			<description><![CDATA[I don't understand this Brassard trade thing. Yes he has talent and could play the 2C role for us this year. But why? He is signed for the next 3 years at way too high of a cap hit. Why would we take ice time away from DaCosta and or Zibanejad next year?If you get a legit 2C player that either has potential to be our guyin the future, or a already developed 2C player that will stick around for many years then ya I'm down. I don't want an average player who may or may not improve taking away ice time from highly touted prospects or ones with extreme potential If Murray is getting him becuade he has a plan in place to trade away guys like Kuba or Gonchar for picks and needs salary in return then ya sure. But there's just something about Brassard that worries me. I don't want a guy just for the sake of getting him for this year and next. We should be concentrating on high level prospects and or ready made superstars to play with Spezza if we don't finish in the lottery]]></description>

Surprises, DaCosta Greening - better than I expected Z Smith - really strong 3rd liner Our young D - will be Norris Trophy candidates one day Our Veteran D - should be put to pasture Butler - shocked at what little he has done Anderson- will be better and will steal some games MacLean- perfect for Ottawa, and will lead us to a SC championship. but for this year, it is pretty much as I expected, and still may squeak into the playoffs]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Sens are easy to summarize, young and inconsistent. They are giving us exactly the type of hockey we should expect from skilled rookies and sophomores still learning what it takes to win at the NHL level. The vets are just helping it look more respectable overall instead of the abysmal finish the "experts" predicted. I think Spezza, Michalek and Karlsson definitely deserve the All-Star game the way they are playing. Alfie will likely make it as well given his standing on this team. Not sold on Gonchar and Anderson though.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hey Lads While I love Ottawa hosting the All Star, I want my votes to reflect who I think deserve it. Don't get me wrong, Alfie, Spezza, 9MM and Karlsson were on that ballot. But I included Letang and Rinne. Letang has really shown he's a top talent on D and Rinne just plays lights out night in and night out. If Lehner comes even close to matching the play of Rinne, we'll be cheering this kid on for years to come. I wish Ottawa would have been more involved in the Fins when it came to scouting, Rinne was picked 8th round while Ottawa grabbed Jeff Glass in the 4th, blah!! Anyway, that's how the cookie crumbles sometimes. In regards to Brassard, I agree with the posters who say he has upside, especially as a 2C in a rebuild situation. His point totals have increased each year, but his place in the depth chart hasn't. This isn't always a players fault, it's often team management or coaching. I'd be ok with Lee being traded, he'll finally get the ice time he deserves.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Boom, thanks for responding now. Your current reply reminds me of a move I do with girls I date. It goes like this : "Hey baby, I almost bought you flowers last week, but I didn't" Listen here - I'm not offended that you are offended. I'm here to provide some insight into why we shouldn't like the other team(s). I like to draw passion about why we rule, and and why "they" suck. I usually get positive feedback. If you don't like it, skip to the next one, and quote the next guy. I'm Mike Peluso - the original battler on this team (see my stats on hockeydb.com.), so I'm not here to P*ssyfoot around topics. As for anger management - I've already gone. One class I realized the instructor was a Habs fan, so I jersey'd him and gave him two shiners. Thanks for your feedback, and for being a fan. -Peluso]]></description>
