I am sorry to see you so upset Zeke as you are such a good and informative poster and keeping us up to date on how Sens players are doing in the AHL has been great.
I can remember what it was like when it looked as though we might lose our team and its not fun.
This change may not happen at all but if it does I expect the Sens to make sure there is a new team in place in Bingo.

Thank you for the kind words about my posts and I am glad you enjoy them... I just try to offer my thoughts on how the Ottawa prospects are doing down here and how the team is doing....
Local posters here do not care for me as I take a bigger view on hockey as most here only care about the team here..... Binghamton exists to develop players for Ottawa, as the players belong to Ottawa not Binghamton....... I like to see players improve and move up to the NHL I take pride in it, and in a small way think that I helped, not that I really did or did I?????
I was crushed when I read the report that Ottawa was leaving, as I went through this before when the damn Rags left our city cold that hurt..... I was overjoyed when the Sens came in 5 yrs later and AHL hockey returned to Binghamton.......
Ottawa is a budget team so they have to draft well and develop players in Binghamton they can Not sign the high priced free agents.... I am a fan of developing your own players as that is a better way to go in my opinion......
No matter what I will always remember the 2010-2011 season in Binghamton..... As it took me 38 years to win my 1 and only
Calder Cup, I am so thankful to Ottawa for that.......
I just wish that the Sens would not rush some of their prospects as they do at times, let them develop a bit more then you will get a better player, but that is not up to me........
Being honest at my age how many seasons of hockey do I have left to watch..... I still love it + it keeps me going, and gets me out of the house 40 nites a year.... Takes a lot of time to keep an eye on Binghamton, Ottawa, the draft picks, and the Sens players in Evansville.... Just don't have the time to keep up with the rest of the NHL.... The AHL I do keep up as it changes so fast at times, + I see Binghamton play 38 times at home and I watch 38 road games on AHL live.....
I let you guys keep up with the rest of the NHL, + keeping track of Ottawa is a job in itself.....
Time and God have taken away darn near everything I have loved, so losing the Sens would devastate me.....
As for my reports I stick to the facts never post any rumors no need for that in view.......
My game reports I praise them when the play well, perhaps to much, but can't help it, as love to see them win.... When they lose I look for positives and if they give a good effort I am fine with that and do not get on them much if at all..... When they do NOT give the effort and play like crap I get on them hard as I should, so I give to them hard when they deserve it..... Sadly it happened too darn many times down here this season.....
Enough before I type a novel tonite, be well
Pepty and have a great summer...... I will get my yr end report on the players out soon I promise.....
