  1. No, East it too stacked. Even if they did, Stutsle is softer than Marner with less heart. They aint going anywhere. But, I'll continue to laugh my ass off everytime Brady scores a pointless goal and over celebrates it like he always does. Think's he's relevant, but he's just an egotistical attention seeking douche like his brother.

  6. I think they absolutely can and have a better chance than some people think. Some people point to Travis Green being a bad hire and that might be true you never know. Tocchet was seen a pretty bad hire with the Canucks and look how that’s turned out.

  17. Not with Travis Green. He is not a good coach and it seems like players get better after he leaves teams. Pettersson was a 70pt player the entire time he played for Green, the first year after Green leaves Vancouver Pettersson is putting up a 100pt season, and Boeser who was looking like a career 40pt player is putting up close to 80 now. It took Jersey one month to figure out that he's not a good coach and that they wanted him nowhere near their coaching staff. On paper Perron looks like a good addition, but Perron is the player who almost took Zub's head off with an intent to injure crosscheck to the head last year so potential locker room drama there,players will look the other way on most things, but not those intent to injure hits Then we practically gave Chychrun away, Jensen is a mid 30's dman that really struggled in a 2nd pairing role and took massive drops in every defensive category last year, which tells me he's started his decent. We pretty much just gave the caps a dman who is going to be playing his best hockey trying to get that big payday for a mid 30's defensman that was the caps worst dman last year. Ullmark on paper looks like their best addition last year, but when you look at Ullmarks numbers while playing for a team that isn't much different than Ottawa his numbers are average or worse. That Ullmark trade is like the Talbot trade all over again, trading an important asset or something that could help us out long term for a goalie we have 0 chance of extending and will probably be gone by the deadline so we can at least get something for him, and the return will be nowhere close to what we gave up for him. I had high hopes for Ottawa with the new owner, but it's the same incompetent management we've seen since Murray

  18. To the question that forms the title of the TSN video, it's not so clear whether the Sens will in April see playoff action. Yes I see a possibility the Sens will finish as high as 4th in the Atlantic Division but that I see them finish no higher than that means no guarantee (unlike teams that finish in top-3 divisional spots) of their 1st post-2017 playoff appearance next spring.
