Nope no disconnect with the fans.  Paging Ian.

 

Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk on Sportsnet 590 (Toronto Radio) on Thursday, when asked about the fans that are angry with him and the direction of his team: "The key for us, first of all, is to identify who is a Senators fan and not. I've had … we tripped up one of these guys and it turned out it was some little 12-year-old in Toronto who was upset with the Senators in general. I'm a high profile person that's an easy target. Let them do what they want to do. I basically ignore 99 percent of it. For our fans that are real fans, we're doing the best we can. All we can do is to keep doing what we've been doing. We've had a great record for the last 15 or 16 years since I bought them. We've been to the Stanley Cup Finals, we've been to the conference finals, we've had all-star games, we've had drafts, we've got outdoor games. We're doing everything, more than most franchises, as far as what do for our fans."

 More than most franchises, what a crock.  Every team does what he just said or attempts to do that.  That’s the minimum in running a professional sports franchise.  Whose this 12 year old?  What a sick frikkin delusional creep

Given that Warnsy’s wife works for the competition (ie/ Rogers), and I think in radio, I will be surprised if he doesn’t turn up right next to TSN1200 on the AM dial at 1310News doing some sort of sports show. Rogers doesn’t have the radio rights for any local sports (TSN1200 has the Sens/67s/Redblacks/FuryFC as well as Raptors and NFL) but they do have the Blue Jays on that station. I’m not anti-Simmer, but I do find his machine-gun of takes with a shotgun scatter of focus to be annoying.

 He is definitley an expressive personality, he doesn't have an analytical bone in his body

I’m a little late with the news, but last week the longest serving host of morning radio on TSN1200 was unceremoniously dumped by Bell Media. Steve Warne, founder of the Church of Alfie, inventor of the Blue Team Elimination watch and ardent Sens supporter was let go in what I can only assume was a cost-cutting measure (the same as CTV Ottawa evening news host Carol-Ann Meahan a few years back). It won’t be the same without him on the radio, and replacing him with Shawn Simpson is, In my not-so-humble opinion, a big step backward.

 I hate Steve Warne is gone for sure, I like Shawn Simpson I just can't imagine if he's the permanent replacement he likes getting up so early.  I saw on Steve Warne's Twitter that he's going to start doing a podcast on something.  So there's that

From Twitter: on today’s college free agent signing by Ottawa

Dorion: Mr. Melnyk, I’m in the process of signing a player from Princeton. Maximilian V—

Melnyk: Max a million? For a college kid? We can’t afford that.


Veronneau, an Ottawa native, scored 13 goals and 24 assists in 31 games for Princeton this season. He had 52 goals and 144 points in 130 career games at Princeton
