He's been a "good fit" with Karlsson for five seasons ................. did playing with an Elite D-man make Methot look better than he is ............ remember he was 3rd pairing in Columbus.

He's gone, Sens can't do anything about it now, no use in crying over spilled milk .......... but $4.9 Million off the Sal.Cap.

meh, I dont think he will be as big a loss as its being made out

The sens will miss the playoffs either way

I agree he won't be as big a loss as many (in Ottawa) think it will be, and if the Sens don't make the Playoffs it will not be because of Methot not being on the Sens Blue line.

how are you today, d0pps?

guys im gettin really sick of the summer talk

I'm not saying Methot was the player preventing Karlsson from being exposed as a weak defenseman. I'm not saying he's a weak defensive player either. I just think that it's unfortunate it's not being discussed. Prock tried to show numbers proving this and was immediately shot down by the Ottrollwa fans. There is nothing worse than a closed mind, and in exposing Methot over Karlsson, someone might have screwed up!

The last time the Sens only had 4 picks in a draft they ended up hitting on #178, pulling Mark Stone out of the 6th round.

Sens have found the secret ..less picks is better


in 2009 they had 9 picks and 5 are NHLers, in 2011 10 picks and 4 are NHLers .. Id go with more picks are better

Anything past the first couple of rounds is probably about 80% luck.

Ottawa has there own first round pick and move up to get Calgary's second. They don't have a 3rd but by that point most everyone is just guessing. I still think Ottawa makes a big trade for another top 6 skater.

There is only one player that has been profiled as remotely available and for him I would move Chabot as part of the package.

I think Sens are better off with that off the books, or whatever it would cost them for him going forward.

The summer is the best time to enjoy kool-aid.

Careful though. You seem like you're over-dosing again.

Duchene?

I don't think I would move Chabot as part of a package for Duchene.

methot is nothing special
- daeth

Solid defender,but brings nothing else.Come on 12 points and no goals while play with a guy like EK
I think you or i would at least get one

Duchene?

- Aetherial

Neither would I .We need a number 1 center,and I dont see Duchene as being that much better than Turris ,who isnt a number 1 guy

You would think I could fall down around the net and have a shot go in off my head or my ass or something.

Look losing Methot for nothing isnt ideal,but adding next years 1st along with a prospect.Isnt something that the team should have done either.We will survive

thinking that would be a much better gif for a team like MTL but hey its still funny

Ideal would have been if you could have traded him before he was taken.

So you miss out on a trade asset in return. It isn't ideal, but neither is it all that bad. I don't believe the Sens will miss him to be honest.

Yeah, I think it’s more about:

1) Dorion wanted to keep him
2) Dorion couldn’t figure out a way how.

So he just got lucky accidentally backed into not a terrible outcome.

- D0PPELGANGER

Such a closed mind. Sad.

TSN had Shane Bowers going in the 2nd round.


They're so anti-Ottawa, they've perfected time travel, in order to criticize them.
