Askarov is the best goalie prospect since Price.

So you’re saying they might have been better off picking kopitar and getting their Center they’ve been lacking forever and rolling with halak?And Price was drafted 15 years ago, which means the cup has been won 15 times since then by 13-15 different goalies not named Price
My point being that you do not need a hall of fame goalie to win a cup, just a really good goalie.
Simmer does this kind of thing, of course Askarov is going to say that to an Ottawa station radio host. I’m sure he’d say he wants to win a cup in Anaheim if a station down there contacted him. Not sure it wasn't a tongue in cheek comment. He's a goalie, so I'm sure he's pulling for a goaltender.Simpson sure is pushing the Askarov to Ottawa angle quite a bit these days.
I hope he is disappointed come draft day.
There is a reason he transitioned his career to the media and this is a pretty good example of why.Simpson sure is pushing the Askarov to Ottawa angle quite a bit these days.

He’s also completely joking and wasn’t on the phone with askarov.Simmer does this kind of thing, of course Askarov is going to say that to an Ottawa station radio host.

Simmer definitely has contacts most of us don't, so maybe Askarov is a legit pick for us. Certainly hope not.
Hence the tongue in cheek commentHe’s also completely joking and wasn’t on the phone with askarov.
The closer the draft comes, the more and more I'm starting to believe Ottawa will draft Askarov at 5
Which falls in line with his ranking, he has him lower than every head scout McKenzie spoke toButton has Drysdale panning out as a #1 and Sanderson as a #2/#3.

Seems quite likely Sanderson is our guyFalls in line with my ranking too.
I guess we will find out soon enough if the Senators to this route.
I agree, waaaay too much smoke. I wouldn't be disappointed, but feel that the Sens would miss a huge opportunity when there are so many high impact forwards available at 5.Sounds like Sanderson is a sure thing at 5 unless the Wings take him. Way too much smoke.
Ok so I know how this looks with a brand new account and everything so I don’t blame anyone who’s skeptical but I do have a good reason for doing it like this. I heard from someone I really trust about these things that Ottawa isn’t sold on Stutzle and will try to trade down if Byfield is taken by LA. If the right package isn’t there though for 3 they’ll take Rossi and take whichever of Sanderson or Quinn falls to 5.
