Roberts and Nieuwendyk sign with the Panthers... http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story.asp?id=132137

I just discovered a brave new world. Starchoice has recently added CBC HD to their lineup. I haven't watched any hockey on there because the last while the Sens games have been carried by CBC Ottawa while TO is always on the HD channel. So tonight, with the Sens game on later, I turned on CBC...

Sounds like a Bertuzzi... http://www.nhl.com/news/2006/01/251328.html I didn't see it, but punching a guy from behind. He just didn't fall on top of him.

Could it be a sign? CBC has announced two more games in April where they will be showing Ottawa play, the 1st and the 8th. Is it a sign of Toronto's "play" of late?!?

Hmmm, what's up with that?!? I bet he's grumpy.

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...

For a draft pick and player in the minors, still pending...

Looks like the Sens signed him to a two year entry-level contract. http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=360251

Do you guys know of any free or cheap NHL scoring projection sites? I like using these lists as a starting point to make a pick list. I used to rely on magazines but there does not seem to be as many out there this year.

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

Bertuzzi,another blow for the N.H.L?

WTF? Anybody see this coming? Theo and Ribeiro yes,but another head coach! Rumour has it,Sourray,Ribeiro and Theodore for Kolzig!

Any comments? I cant believe it! Its a plan derrived by the Americans to throw the Canadians off their game!:-)

Anyone catch that pre-game ceromony last night for Boom,Boom? Man that was deep.

Yeah baby!:-) :-) :-) :-)

The big "owe" in Montreal is finnaly paid off today...30 years later:laughing:

The Leafs are out. Go Sens Go! :-)

As a change to the usual Heatley discussions, and in the wake of the Sens rewarding Elliot with a 2 year contract (800K, 900K), any thoughts on the goalie situation .........is Leclaire a long-term solution or just a temporary bandaid while Elliot earns more experience.....

:laughing:http://ca.news.finance.yahoo.com/s/20082009/2/biz-finance-teachers-pension-plan-boosting-its-stake-owner-leafs.html Now there's an owner that I want running my sports team.....more good years ahead for the Leafs :laughing:

Let's hope Murray got this one right. http://www.ottawacitizen.com/Detroit+assistant+MacLean+Senators+coach+report/4938689/story.html Over/Under: 3 seasons. Comments? P.S. How sweet is that 'stache.

http://m.ctv.ca/topstories/20110619/ESPN-Toronto-rankings-110619.html Can't say I'm surprised. Full results here: http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/teamrankings

I could not believe it, i was at the game last nite, and when the national anthem came on, he still had his bucket on. I could not believe it, he was the only player who had not taken his helmet off. It was the most disrespectful thing i have ever seen, its not like the game was in the States!!...

I know its petty to complain about a team that is 19-4-0, but is it just me or do the Sens either play amazing or horrible!! All of their loses have been because they have played just horrible. None of their 4 losses have been when they played great and still lost. It just seems that when they...

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

I am the only one who can't stand watching Hockey Night in Canada?? I know that the leafs are "Canada's team" but it is just unbelievably annoying to listen to Cole and Neale. I mean toronto is a god to these guys, whenever belfour make a save, its the save of the year and when they block a...

Just looked at the medal count today and Canada is tied in 2nd with 11, 2 back of Norway! Quite impressive, i know the COC is shooting for 3rd place and it looks to be well on their way. I know we all hope/expect to get 2 medals in hockey and 2 in curling as well, so they are well on the way to...

How bad it must be to be a leafs fan. They are now gonna be 7 points back of the Habs for 8th place. Undoubtably they played their best game in some time, especially against the Sens, and they still lose, what's that say??? Who knew that the leafs would be the only Canadian team to miss the...

Who fights Brashear?? Well McGratton dropped Brashear and definetly got the better of the fight. Looks like he's one of the only guys that isn't afraid of Brashear!

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!

Let's hope for a huge rout tonite, I just got some tickets and will be at the game tonite, lets go for a huge win!!

I know the leafs are winning 5-0, but i am sure Sens and leaf fans can actually agree on one thing, why did they put a Nucks/Wings game on when it was 3-1, 1st game of the season?? Its not like its the 2nd last of the season, with major implications. I would rather watch the leafs win 15-0, then...

how about this interview, a little bit homophobic ya think http://tsn.ca/nba/news_story/?ID=196316&hubname=

Can anybody tell me why these guys are the announcers for sens games. The announcers can't even remember Redden, i believe it was "Redson". They are just goofballs, i swear i would rather have the game in Chinese than hear these guys, and trust me i don't know Chinese! :wallbash:wallbash. Also,...

so suspension came down today for downie and its 20 games, what you guys think?? I think its a joke of a suspension, the guys not playing in the NHL anyway, so this is like suspending a guy who is retiring, what a complete JOKE! No fine was handed out, and by the sounds of it, its not gonna be a...

Looks like Murray is earning his wage already. http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=218524&hubname= Signing Fisher for $21 over 5 years sounds great to me, i don't have a doubt that Fisher deserves about $4 a year. When you look at guys like Demitra, Lehtinen, Handzus etc. who make the same, i...

Just got word that Spezza has re-signed with the Sens for 7 years/49million!!!! They now have Spezza, Heatley, Alfie and Fisher signed through 2012-2013!! Looks like the future looks great for the Sens.

check out the TSN link, Murray says Emery has been told that he will not be returning next year. I think its the right move and they should not even consider having him back next year. http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=234603&lid=sublink02&lpos=headlines_main Also said that although Heatley and...

Did anybody get a chance to watch the Aussie Open Semis last night between Nadal and Verdasco? I know its hard because the match is on at 3:30am but I must say it was one of the best matches I have seen in my lifetime. I mean Nadal had Verdasco down SOO many times and this guy was hitting winners...

this has to be the biggest insult to a team... apparently losing to the leafs is the final straw for teams that are struggling. After the leafs beat the Penguins the coach gets fired and now the same In NYC. I guess GM's can stand losing 9 of 11, but when that 10th loss in 12 comes at the hands...

How many here are CIS hockey fans? For a country that LOVES hockey, why is there not the same interest as America (and Canada) have for their NCAA football? Why do people not follow it? Its not a difficult ticket to get and the games are always great to watch! Its seems like the perfect team to...

I know this is a poll-type question, so... Who do you think is the best goaltender in the World? For me its Thomas Greiss from Germany. He had a Save Percentage over 80, which is an A... I was always damn happy with that.

The deal is finally done and the season will begin on schedule. Just one thing, how many fans will return with their pocket books out ready to pay full prices?

Anybody buy sens tickets yet? A friend and I bought half season tickets each and split them. Works out to 11 games and I have to seats for my wife and I, I bought the GM power seats and you get the same seats all year which is nice. Prices were pretty good if you don't mind the 300 level. I...

Check out the comments from this thunder head! I am sort of in the middle on the the Roenick hit. I do think in pre season you don't steam roll guys but at the same time you shouldn't be allowed to run around with your head down. Either way this guys comments are way out of line. ...

Check out the Ottawa Sun today they have a good close up of Haseks helmet, which belongs in a museum! I am not a huge Hasek fan but this guy has to have Balls of Steal to wear this thing! It has no ear guards, no throat guard, the cage just hangs there and the dam thing looks to small for his...

So the names are out what does everyone think? http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?fid=8747&hubname= Me, I think that not having 2 of the top scorers in the league on the team is a joke!!! Spezza and Staal shold be there. I would have taken pezza just because him and Heatley have so much...

Anybody see Ovechkin's goals against the Coyotes? It was awsome, that kid has some serious offfensive talent. He may not be the best play maker,but for pure scoring touch it's him and Kovelchuk!

Just learned in the office... A buddy of mine has one of his daughters working at GolfTown in Kanata. Apparently Martin Gerber was recently seen shopping for golf clubs. -- This can't be good for us Senator fans... :wallbash Cheers, Don
