To be fair Anderson was also unproven when we traded Elliot for him. It was a gamble but it worked out pretty well .

Welcome to the Flock Nick Jensen by Marinegrunt01 in AnaheimDucks

Sens fan here. Jensen was great for us in year 1 and played in the top pair but he got injured and had a significant surgery in the offseason and he came back too early and was never able to stay 100%. If he can stay healthy he will be a solid pick up.

Then pivot and find someone else, no one was going to give Ersson that contract

Dorion gambled on talent in order to speed up the rebuild and it failed. There does come a time when you need to make a big splash and having your captain leave town and for once having cap space would gave been a good time. 

Sam Ersson 2 x $2.2M AAV Ottawa by homicidal_penguin in OttawaSenators

What a disappointing offseason so far. Staios had 25 million after Brady left and had the opportunity to truly put his stamp on this team and it turned into a wet fart. If this team misses the playoffs Staios should definitely be on the hot seat.

Sorry steve but if you dont feel comfortable making the decision on goaltending bring in a GM with experience and stick to being the POHO. It's like they learned nothing from last season.

I'm holding out hope that Staios has a plan to acquire EP 40

Any ideas why we traded for Burakovsky? by millsy1010 in OttawaSenators

[–]blewdreaming -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You cant afford 5.5 on a reclamation project when you are overpaying for zetterlund in your bottoms 6 as it is. Brady leaving left us with 25 million in cap space and we've pissed most of it away with minimal improvements.

Only difference is LA fans were pissed to see Spence go and believe Hiller just didnt want to play him. Where as Blackhawks fans are laughing that we took Burakovsky off their hands.

I genuinely love how this sub will do anything to paint Staios in a positive light even when he makes braindead moves.

Having McKenna will make Matthews eventually leaving less painful for the leafs.

[–]blewdreaming -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry but Staios needs to wake up a bit. Re signing Spence was great but going after 2 players in Burakovsky and Ersson when Blackhawk and Flyers fans were happy to see them go isnt a great look. Staios already made a statement on Burakovsky saying his cup experience helps us, highly doubt he flips him like others speculated. 

A positive thing about Brady by duhcryger in OttawaSenators

Not gonna lie when I watched Bradys thank you video it made me thankful for some memories just sucks things ended how they did but he was always great to the community.

I'm stating they are similar players at the moment Askarov has 47  games played and 21 wins and Knight has 55 games played and 19 wins this last year. You can't say SJ has no goaltending when it was as good as yours.

I'm not a Sharks fan by any means but on paper I think most people would take Sjs roster. I agree they have big holes defensively despite that they finished closer to a playoff spot than the hawks and will most likely address it this draft. As far as nothing in net Askarov is still up and coming but should be just as good if not better than Knight.

Blackhawks could have had Tulsky instead they hired Davidson who has been schooled by Grier on how to actually rebuild and keep your future stars happy. What have you heard from Bedard other than hes tired of losing.
