I think it's rather obvious he's not. If you were going to pick a better team, would you really pick the Sens? LOL, I sure as hell wouldn't. They're a pile of trash. the roster is, the organization always has been, the fanbase (doesn't really support their team, rather dependant on neighbouring fanbases for sellouts, etc), the city. The whole thing.

If I were going to jump ship, the Ottawa Senators would be at or near the bottom in terms of who I'd pick. That, to me, is rather convincing to me that his story of once being a Leaf fan is bullpoop. No reasonably intelligent would jump ship from the Leafs...... and go to the Sens.

despite the fact that the team was originally done as a joke, I actually am a fan of the Preds. One of the best managed teams in the league. Poile is one of the best GMs int he league.

Not going to comment on the organization being trash (never liked Melnyk), but the rest is just being personally subjective, I like the city and their fans.

I don't know man. I've been seriously considering jumping on the Canes bandwagon. I'm sick of the Leafs and their mediocrity! Time to cheer for a proper team with a realistic shot at greatness!!!

You too? (frank) this Leaf poop man. Should have taken Laine even though I agree Matthews was the right choice. So sick of this. Honestly I'm within a female genitalia hair of ordering my Seth Jones jersey and following a real team. No more of this battling for 9th mediocrity for me. Enough is enough. Or should I say Phaneuf is enough. I'm done chearing for a team that thinks Phaneuf is the solution. Blue Jackets baby. Time to cheer for a winner.

h leafs r a team of divers and cheap shot artists! Stupid team. Hasn't won anything since 1967! Get real guys every year it's the same thing. Shoot for. Playoffs and fail. And fall short. U can't even draft properly! There's seriously something wrong with that city when u have riots during the g8 summits. The Canucks are rebuilding and are. An up and coming team with a nice mix of veterans and rookies that will compete. For the playoffs... So have fun cheering for a looser team. Nucks are a better team and it isn't even close.

Hmm I remember some sens fans making a big deal about that when the Leafs were doing it.

Laine scored again last night. Watched some of the game. He is a force. But, had the Leafs taken him, they really don't have a #1 centre that he could have played with. Matthews was probably the right pick.

It really is a riddle. Last year the Sens were a top 10 scoring team. This year they are playing a very strong defensive game but struggling to score. Yet, they keep winning. They are getting lots of chances but not burying them.

The power play has been dreadful but the penalty kill (bad last year) has been very good.

Karlsson has been playing the best hockey of his career.

Can the Sens improve their scoring pace and still continue winning?

No

That was easy.

Wasn't this the main reason Boucher was brought in and the brassard deal was made?

Brassard, yes.

Boucher, no. Even though Boucher does have a power play reputation, he was brought in to fix the defensive play and goals against.

The assumption was that if the Sens could cut goals against by 30 they would easily make the playoffs.

Overall the team is playing really well. Some players are thriving in the new system (Karlsson, Turris, Stone, Methot, and Ceci). Phaneuf has been a huge improvement on overall defensive play. Anderson has been really good. Others like Hoffman, Brassard and Ryan are still trying to figure out what they are supposed to be doing.

Easily the right pick. Matthews has more points than any Sens forward.

Right. Sens are 7th overall in NHL with a .656 winning percentage!

Too bad you guys give so many points away to the rest of the league.

.656 should have you comfortably in a playoff position.

Will haunt you this winter as the schedule gets tougher.
