What do you think will happen tonight?

Yes or no? We could miss out if we keep this up. If so, what seed do you think we'll get?

Team 1200 reporting that nhl.com shows Schafer as a Bruin on there roster and Donovan as a Senator.

It was a great start to the season. Very entertaining first period and entire game in general. Looks like the Leafs are going to have to be a grinding type of team this year, but looks like they can pull it off easily. I guess somethings just never change........Mr. Spezza continuously giving...

:laughing: Now I'm going to draw some flak about this, but, once again the leafs are..NOT going to the playoffs.....As a diehard red wing fan, perhaps the leaf faithful can get a petition together and oust Ferguson and the rest of the dead wood, get better scouting and hopefully win the cup before...

:cool :cool LEAFS Fans should be really really quiet after tonights BLOWOUT! I am not a Sens fan but I loved that game!:P

Bob Cole has got to go. www.firebobcole.com Take a look, sign the petition and pass it on to every Sens fan you know!

15 years - That is absurd

Anyone else pumped for the Euros? This tournament usually produces much more competitive football than the World Cup, a team really has to earn their way in. Unless you're Switzerland or Austria that is. :P Anyway, cheering for the Netherlands but secretly hoping Spain will do well, they are the...

Who are you picking to win the Superbowl this year?????

Any good hockey players out there? Here is your chance to make it to the NHL: http://corelcentre.com/acts/makingthecut-04.aro

This is another example why IMO Sid is a better player. Ovy has proved again that in big games he is just not the franchise player you need on your team to get the job done. We will be able to compare adequately this next series since both will have faced the same team. Ovy was continuously...

Clouston just announced that Spezza has, "a serious right knee injury". He is having an MRI at 3:30 this afternoon which will give a better idea of how long he is out. I know he has not had a very good start, but he has started to score as of late, and he is still the team's number 1 centre. I...

Who do you think they should start when Emery is healthy? IMO they should play gerber, let everyone see what a solid #1 he is and then trade him for some draft pics to dump salary ;)

Okay, so we haven't even played one game under the new CBA, and the Penguins have already managed to get into financial trouble. Idiots. Mario's quote about being "prepared to lose money along the way, but we'll eventually need some help" is friggin laughable. Screw you Mario... No help should...

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=230511&hubname= So Sundin refuses to waive his no-trade clause. This has to be one of the most selfish things I have heard of in a while. JR was also reporting that he has said he won't negotiate a contract extension. Is he done? Does he care so little...

This is getting downright embarrassing! :redface 56-10 a couple of minutes into the 4th quarter...

During the game last night, Chris Simon pulled another idiotic move that they say could cost him between 20 and 30 games. I'm not going to look for a link to the infaction (I wil leave that to PEI :-) ) but hen I saw the replay, it made me sick to my stomach and even Don Cherry asked them not to...

It's Now Official! Heatley agrees to 6-year deal with Sens Dany Heatley 10/3/2007 5:22:30 PM Sources tell TSN Dany Heatley has agreed to a 6-year contract extension with the Ottawa Senators believed to average between $7.5 and $8 million per year. Although details of the structure...

Yay, we got a defenseman!!! Karlsson out of Sweden. Here are Pierre McGuire's comments: He was one of the fastest climbers on everyone's list - some had him as high as number five overall. He's the Swedish Brian Rafalski. You talk about patching holes, this patches a hole on defence for the...

After taking an instigator penalty against Carlo Colaiacovo in the last 5 mins. of the game will Jason Spezza get suspended or not? Your thoughts.

Man, I am afraid of the extremely fagile confidence level of the Sens, last night ahead 5-0 and they almost blow it. :biting: This is the 3rd time I have seen them do this type of collapse going back to last year and I wonder what the hell a coach could do to stop this downward spiral when it is...

I was really impressed with Murray's shootout strategy tonight. He went with Vermette, McAmmond, Fisher, the players who had been working hard. He rewarded hard work, and sent a message to starts that they need to start playing like stars - no glory if they don't work for it. So, my question...

We started this discussion in another thread, let's continue it here

All year I prepared myself for the very real possibility of no Red Wings in the playoffs. Now look! #5 seed in the west is within striking distance. Even winning the division is a remote posibility. Only 6 pts back of Chicago who is in a tailspin. . Finish strong Wings!

So I'm watching Poker After Dark on Sportsnet the other day, and to my dismay Phil Helmuth is playing. Now I don't know about you guys, but this guy gets on my nerves. I've never seen anyone who likes to listen to his own voice as much as this guy (ok, perhaps Vince McMahon of the WWE is the other...

Is anyone else thoroughly annoyed with this late season push? I mean, it's great that they're playing well, but all they're doing is playing themselves out of a good draft pick (unless of course NYI are willing to trade their number 1 pick for Jason Spezza). I can't decide whether I even want...

:shhh: :laughing:

I'll bet he doesn't get more than a slap on the wrist for stomping on Kessler. Maybe if Colin Campbell didn't have that huge man-crush on Prongs, he might actually dole out the appropriate punishment.

Looks like the leafs are oficially knocked out of the playoffs!!:hyper::hyper::hyper: Lightning won today and knocked them out, good to finally see. Now perhaps there is a chance that we will get to see Sens games on CBC during the playoffs!

anyone think the n.h.l will accept the latest offer? if so,what do you think about playoffs in july/august?:lol2

Martin Havalat and Smolinski to Chicago. Havalat, $16 million over 3 years.

This sounds crazy to me. Black steals almost 6mil and gets 6.5 years. Vic kills a few dogs and gets 2 years? Does anyone else think this is much longer than it should have been? This guys career is over. How can you be in jail for 2 years and ever get back into game shape? PS I have...

If your bored with normal TV and are looking for something a little different to watch on Saturday night , The UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) has a steller fight card on PPV this coming weekend. If you don`t mind A bit of violence and some mixed matial arts , you gota see this sport to...

:-) Wow the Sens did a great job of keeping the Rangers off the scoreboard tonight. Which in turn allowed JOE THORNTON of the San Jose Sharks to win the SCORING TITLE :-) A little bit of history here. Joe is the first NHL player to be traded mid season and win the scoring title. Joe Thornton...

Anyone watching this? Money on the tourney?

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=241462&lid=sublink03&lpos=headlines_main Can't say I'll loose sleep over this....

I know nobody will take him, but Spezza has to go. He is simply not getting it. I am sick of all of the "offensive creativity" nonesense as an excuse for the give aways. He does not hustle, refuses to get dirty in the corners, and will not stop the give away plays. Everyone else has picked it up...

Didn't get a chance to see the game. Checked the boxscore on nhl.com, and there were a tonne of penalties in the third. Can anyone tell me what happened - the explanations on nhl.com and tsn.ca are pretty sparse, probably as they're trying to discourage fighting and such. Thanks in advance.

So TSN are reporting that Ray Emery was late for practice today and that the coach was furious and sent him back to the hotel. Is this the end of Emery in Ottawa? or with Gerber's less than stellar season so far, do they have to keep him around? What should they do?

Hello friends, (Jim Nance voice) I'm looking for the best option for sports streaming services. Mainly for NHL/NFL/PGA feeds and highlights. Suggestions? What is everyone using?

Canada is poised to set the all-time record for gold medals at a Winter Olympics, but if you could, would you trade the 13 we have for the one we Canadians covet the most?

What do you think of Downie's latest stunt?? Does it warrant a suspension? Personally I think Downie has demonstrated yet again that he has absolutely no regard for his fellow competitors and I'd be for a permanent ban - this dude has no place on the ice........

Check the updated standings today, Sens tied for first in the conference, leafs in 9th and canadiens in 10th!!! http://www.nhl.com/standings/20052006/conference_standings.html

Does anyone here think Ottawa should trade Spezza? I personally dont think they should. 46 points in 46 playoff games. 1 of 8 players to play 300 games and be a point a game player. He turns the puck over a bit but not as much as in the past. Crosby's goal in the playoffs was as much Phillip's...

So the NHL is clearly worried about Sidney Crosby and the reality that he may not return for the start of the season. They are clearly worried about the high number of head shots and concussions. They are clearly worried about the recent deaths of 2 of the leagues "tough guys". They are clearly...
