Ouch - the schedule is going to be grueling
(Preview)
From the Minnesota game to the end of the season: 22 games in 40 days. The team doesn't have more than one day off between games between now and the end of the season, and this is AFTER the killer California road trip. Yes, they won that state, but this is a lot of hockey to play between now and game 82...

Game 64: Flames vs Senators 1900 EDT CITY TVA TSN1200 Unique 94,5
(
1 2 3 4 5 … 7
)
(Preview)
Boston has won two games since the Senators last played, so the current wildcard spot gap is 7 points with two games in hand. Anderson will start in goal tonight against the Flames, his first start in more than six weeks (he was 7-3-3 before the injury). There are no other lineup changes, so the hea...

Will the Hamburgler be in net? Will Anderson make his return? Or Phillips? Or Smith? Puempel vs Greening? Buddy Robinson to be called up? Nobody knows, as of yet. At least two Callups will be at the game on Friday -- I'm hoping they bring the game they've been playing out west and dismantle...

Reports yesterday were that the flu is going through the team, and this is the 2nd in two nights for the team (including EK65 playing more than 35 minutes last night), so they may not be really energetic and they're up against a hungry team. After the game last night, coach Cameron was cagy about who was...

This is great news. Andy is going to be the backup on Tuesday. Now the question becomes... at what point does he get back in the net?

We'll be #UnitedInBed again tonight, with another left coast late night start. No lineup info available yet as it's only 0540h in California. If it's half as exciting as the LA game, we'll be having fun again tonight.

Trade deadline: what do you want, what do you dread
(Preview)
In a recent interview with TSN's James Duthie (you can listen to it here), GMBM says that he's talked to a few teams about a few guys. He's not interested in a pending UFA, but he's looking to upgrade for the future. He's doesn't think he has to move a D, but he would be open to it if the right deal was op...

Tonight's game is 2230h, not 2200h, so it'll be starting when some of us are normally getting home from a game that was at the CTC! Hammond is looking solid, but we'll see if Anderson is ready to go or not. We might see Greening in the lineup tonight.

Prince sent down to Bingo and the rumour is tha...

Globe and Mail article by non-hockey writer stirrs some, causes yawns with others

The article in question: Eugene Melnyk helped Senators slide further into mediocrity It's pretty inflammatory, it's rehashing a lot of old stuff, and doesn't seem to really have a point to it. I got into a "discussion" about it on Twitter this morning (it wasn't very interesting, tru...

The trade deadline is March 2nd, but there is already some talks going on among GMs. For the Senators Phillips, Neil and Methot could be candidates to be traded before the deadline. I hope they don't trade Neil, they need his heart and grit. The Sens don't have a player in the organization that does wha...

Now that Methot is back playing again, hopefully for the rest of the season, the talk about his pending UFA status is coming back to the top of the list of Sens fans discussion topics (after JGP being a Habs killer and EK65's improved +/- under the new coach, of course). Last year, the comparable being...
