Sens sign Nick Cousins. Not sure how I feel about this, but I guess if he's going to be an *******, at least he's our *******. Sens are not going to be fun to pay against this year.
Good signing because it’s just for the minimum and TheAthletic losing Ian Mendes is a blow and hopefully it’s a great thing for the Ottawa Senators. Melnyk has to be rolling over in his grave now with all the changes

Carter Yakemchuck scored 30 goals. They had their choice of some awesome defensive players….Iginla went 6th so no shot at him
Craig Button seems to really like him so hopefully he’s an amazing offensive player like Evan Bouchard of Edmonton who he compares him to, did say to be patient like the Oil were with Bouchard

Honestly, great if he's offensive, but I'm hoping he is solid and tough in front of his net. that's what we need more of.
I like the pick. They've needed a big mobile D-man for years. And if he can contribute offensively as well, even better. I hope they don't rush him into the NHL before he's ready.
Thoughts on the pick: I think anyone who read my draft coverage knew I was going to be a big fan of whoever took Yakemchuk. He’s a dynamic big man. He has high-end skill, he can skate, and plays hard. He has the potential to be a star in the NHL even if he has some things in his all-around game to clean up.

The senators are going to get one of the top three defenseman in this draft. A bunch of offensive players went before them for the first five picks. No way is Ottawa taking Iginla now with these guys still left
