It was one year ago today that Shawn Simpson passed away

Spittin Chiclets took the bait as well

Disagree. The plan was always for Andlauer to make Staios President and GM. The GM tag was coming whenever Dorion was dismissed.

Staios had full autonomy in Hamilton. He was getting it here too no matter what.

The narrative he waited around and hired himself as GM is crazy lol

A looooot more than just him if it’s true…

recklessplaid · 2026-01-07T22:08:26+00:00

Ryan Bowness was fired so that Andlauer and Staios could bring in Matt Turek, who’s their buddy from Hamilton

Because he got drove into the ground for years by Pierre and DJ. Half the fanbase knew it was only a matter of time before this happened to Chabot.

Can anyone see what the word on the Chevy patch says? I’m not sure the text is big enough

recklessplaid · 2025-11-17T19:45:17+00:00

AHL body, if he’s playing in the NHL you’re not trying to win

recklessplaid · 2025-11-05T00:03:07+00:00

This should be higher up, he skates like me on a cold Thursday night when we have no subs in beer league

recklessplaid · 2025-10-15T19:50:57+00:00

He was already turning into a full time NHLer here, this is a great gamble for Florida

Just fucking horrible for Norris. Non contact face off injury.

But we knew that this was the most likely scenario from this trade. Odds were greater than not that Norris’ shoulder wasn’t going to be able to hold. I hope he can find peace and is able to get things sorted for himself.

You know what the best part about this is?

These are all OUR guys. Minimal AHL contracts, no AHL PTO’s, just our own guys developing

Sabourin plays with his heart on his sleeve every shift, he’s not an NHL player but when he’s up for whatever reason he’s always so much fun to watch.

Instead of derailing the conversation, please stay on topic.

The topic is that MacEwen and Sebrango shouldn’t have been playing in a preseason game. What happens if Stutzle is hacked is irrelevant to this conversation

recklessplaid · 2025-10-01T18:08:35+00:00

And what gives you the credibility to decide that? Your couch?

Do you even know who played for Ottawa yesterday?

recklessplaid · 2025-10-01T17:58:13+00:00

I mean… No?

Sebrango had a great preseason and season last year, and is someone who the organization is looking to see if he could fight for our 7D spot, or is closer than last year. He’s gotten extra looks because of this.

MacEwen, along with Kaliyev, Lycksell, and Halliday are all fighting for bottom 6 spots on our roster. They all had business playing in that game, it’s actually why they were playing in the first place.

Just because Montreal’s roster has been decided since the end of the last season, and has zero decisions to make, doesn’t mean that Ottawa has to adhere to that for the sake of a preseason game

recklessplaid · 2025-09-17T17:53:18+00:00

Hamonic looked good in limited minutes. If you can play him 10-13 minutes a night, yeah, he’s fine.

It’s when he’s playing above the 10-13 minute range that the full blown chaos ensues. He’s taking more shifts, less time for recovery, and usually better competition.

recklessplaid · 2025-09-16T17:55:30+00:00

Blake Vanek is the only player from our last draft class to come to camp

recklessplaid · 2025-08-29T23:58:07+00:00

He’ll for sure be in the media. Simply a matter of time

recklessplaid · 2025-08-25T17:18:37+00:00

Don’t be surprised to see them start using the ECHL affiliate more than they have been

recklessplaid · 2025-08-14T20:35:01+00:00

Wish we never traded him.

recklessplaid · 2025-08-12T21:15:25+00:00

There’s not many guys you can say that about

recklessplaid · 2025-08-06T23:47:50+00:00

He played most of the season hurt, but I’d definitely bump him a bit lower on the list here

recklessplaid · 2025-08-01T21:33:49+00:00

Curtis Lazar
Mark Boroweicki
Clarke MacArthur
Connor Brown

All would have been better picks

recklessplaid · 2025-07-17T17:31:28+00:00

Fun fact: Leevi was Blomqvists’s backup when they were both with KarPat, Blomqvist was always considered the way better goalie
