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

poll should have been, will the sens make the playoffs, have another in a long line of disappointing post season, not win the ultimate prize, yet for some reason not make any major changes and end up with the same team next year that once again will not win even though all the local homers will think they have the best team in the history of the game
just an idea

hey when the leafs suck, at least you know they will suck and do not have these ridiculous expectations of them being oh so good, only to see what is happening again.
And I never get sens fans with the 67 chant, not like the sens have won the cup either, I think you need to win one first before you can rally ridicule others.
Now from habs fans, yes of course, and hey maybe another one this year (ong shot but hey you never know), but sens, not a chance, never was one and never will be one

I am pretty sure most of us Leaf fans know we suck. That's why the major outcry for some changes in TO this year.....This is the best trade deadline the Leafs have had in I don't know how long.
Maybe the players in Ottawa also don't care if they win a cup for another 28 years hence there passion to win when they have to........
The Sens will make the playoffs though.PinShark

The leafs need to trade away all their over paid players. If they won't give up their no trade... buy them out. I read somewhere that you only pay the dude 2/3 of what he is owed on the contract AND only 1/2 of that amount counts against the cap. A good way for teams who are rich (TOR) to buy their way out of their mistakes. I say wign sundin to a 4-year deal then don't give him a no trade clause this time. Then right after you sign him trade him to the worst team in the league for a first round draft pick just to screw him over!!!

the leafs did all that. In trading gill the removed 2.5 mil form the cap. and this summer they will trade kubina, 5 mil gone. that leaves a lot of room to fill in with other players, and sundin will not be signed, but if he does nto retire he will likely take less money.
so all in all fletch did a decent job and looks like they are starting to turn the corner.
now watch ottawa and its high priced talent, maybe getting to soft with their millions

........ummmmmmmmm.........okay, let's compare!
Here's an excerpt from an article that appeared in Canadian Business from last spring about hockeys most and least valuable players :
'Ah, the salary cap. The great equalizer in the NHL. No more can teams buy their way to the top. Not that some teams were able to do that anyway (Hello, Toronto Maple Leafs and your 40 years of futility). But today's NHL team is just as much a function of salaries as it is players. Each team had roughly $44 million (all figures in $US) to spend in 2006. Some, such as the Maple Leafs, spent it unwisely
The best-spending Canadian team was the Ottawa Senators at $430,201 a point
If you just look at cost per point, then the Colorado Avalanche's Paul Stastny and Andrew Brunette, along with the San Jose Sharks' Milan Michalek, would fill out your forward line. On defence, looking at cost per point and plus/minus, you'd likely end up with Tom Preissing and Christoph Schubert of the Ottawa Senators.
Plus/minus stats aside, you can't go wrong with Dion Phaneuf...let's compare him to Maple Leaf Bryan McCabe — a.k.a. the human pylon. McCabe slightly outscored Phaneuf with 57 points to finish 10th among defenders, but each minute he spent on the ice cost $3,250, or roughly 14 times what Phaneuf received. McCabe is also one of the worst defensive defencemen in the league, with a plus/minus hovering around zero despite all his points... McCabe's salary of $7.15 million.'
BTW Redden's salary is 6.5 million. I didn't check the totals for this year but I'm pretty sure Redden is outpacing Mccabe by about 20 points.
For your enjoyment here's the link for the article : http://www.canadianbusiness.com/rank...&type=overviewAl Gore didn't invent the internet, but he did invent global warming.
