Like locking down sought after free agent Nate Thompson

So, you highlight scoreboard and standings indicating they are fiction....or, are you trying to suggest they just don't matter.
- spatso

I'm saying no one pretending they don't exist. I'm saying that's you pointing out age doesnt show how you value the scoreboard, nor does your post "sens won". What did they win? You talk about scoreboard and standings and then post 'sens won', it's pretty (frank)ing hilarious. You're so dumb you can't even see it

I agree. Ottawa can only get better from here. any team that wins two rounds is guarantees to win at least 3 the next year.

Leafs didn't set any stages. they made the playoffs off old guys and didn't even win a game. wasn't a close series at all.

Sens future is radiant. Leafs best chance just passed

Oh yeah, nevermind. The prize is that coveted 28th overall pick.

Sens made the best run by a Canadian team in a bunch of years. It was the most hockey fun I have had since 2007 and the Cup final.

Most of the fans of other Canadian teams have been pretty good about it. Leaf fans, on the other hand, are so butt hurt over the entire matter that they can't let it go for what it was and remains over this summer for Sens fans.

Jealousy can be a wicked thing.

Kind of fun watching Leaf fans turn from blue to green.

You keep wanting to redefine an evaluation criteria like it has some special meaning.

Hockey is measure by scoreboard and results, standings and playoffs.

Sens went to ECF, deal with it.
- spatso

It wasn't ideal.

Most of us wanted the Sens to fail in the SCF.

You won the 28th pick. You threw away one of your key contributors by your own words. You tried to pay people to take Phaneuf off your hands. Bobby Ryan has the worst contract in the league. MacArtur said he does't want to retire. Burrows is a joke, Smith has a horrible contract. You are pinning your hopes on a 6'6" pylon, a defenseman from the Q and an average college player.

Meanwhile, the Leafs had the best crop of rookies, EVER, in NHL history and got better, will get even better this summer and the cap is under control now and in the future.

Deal with it.

I bet it wasn't as much fun as it was for us to watch you ultimately make your future less bright, win nothing in the process, and then continue to mismanage and screw up in the off-season.

It was not nearly as much fun as listening to you go on about how great Phaneuf is while the Sens have been trying to dump him since the season ended.

Scoreboard

Leafs 4 Sens 0

Really? Weeks ago?

Perhaps you missed the fact the Leafs just signed 3 guys with combined age total in the range of 115 years. All them are older than anybody on Sens roster.

You guys are sucking air. It is no different this year than any other year.

PS Sens went to game 7 of ECF.

...and will miss the playoffs next season

So, your still hurting over last year's dialogue.

Your just way too easy. Next year comes soon enough.

Most of the Sens fans I have talked to here in Ottawa are realistic and understand they had a lot of luck and things go their way. Do not expect this coming season to be an automatic playoff Team...and are not as idiotic as you.

What's prize for that?

Oh yeah, nevermind. The prize is that coveted 28th overall pick.

and a pat on the back.

Reality is going to be tough for Sens fans.

on the plus side well be around to rub it in.

At the beginning of last season Boucher said he was going to make the Sens a much better defensive team. He said he was going to sacrifice goal scoring. He said the Sens would make the playoffs.

This year they are planning for substantial improvement.

The most curios comment if the underlying belief on the part of Ottawa management that Chabot is ready to log 1st pairing minutes with Karlsson.

Boucher loves this team. He is entirely confident that it goes to a higher level next year. Boucher has my confidence.

I have some good contacts around the Ottawa. Good enough to the point that they are always careful never to provide me with any inside information.

But, I can tell you with very great assurance they really like this team and they are very confident about the coming season.

The negativity around here is warranted.

Replacing Mrthot's 20+ mins per game from within reeks of cheapness. Ottawa's front office, starting with Melnyk, is Mickey Mouse.

Can one of Chabot/Claesson/Harpur step in and fill the hole? Possibly. Should we count on it? Not at all.

It is absolutely ridiculous to tell your fanbase that one of these three guys - where the most experienced played 13mins/game for 33 games - is going to fill the #2 spot on this team.

Sure, it could happen and that would be great. But expecting it to happen is just so fckn dumb. Fans can see right through it and we all know it all comes down to money. Any cap team would never rely on one of these 3 guys to fill that hole, while leaving a crapload of cap space on the table.

A competitive cap team would aquire another D and worry about the logjam later. If a few of our prospects turn out tl be studs, we can always trade someone away. Dmen are always at a premium.

Yes, of course, just like this summer.

It is entirely delightful to have you rubbing it in.

Perhaps, if, we are truly honest, we might succeed and make next year even more painful than this summer.
