Of course we get the Habs once they are playing better and Price has returned.

 

[krapsik]

If they are better now, final score would be 16-2 ?

[Do Make Say Think]

We own Price.

This is the perfect opponent to end the skid.

 

[Baby Ryan]

This...this will not be an acceptable loss. I will take a win if it means getting blown out the following game.

its better for us if Price plays. We suck against their backups

 

[thesensguy]

Easy win, 6-0 sens, Duchene and Condon hat tricks

 

[UnHappyDude]

Battle of the Titans!!!!! I'm watching this one

Bergevin and Dorion should team up and write a book called "How to waste the prime years of a generational talent". I'd read it.

I think you posted in the wrong thread?????

 

[Kamina]

Just win baby.

Although I'm not going to act like Dorion is the best GM in the league or anything close to it, to compare him to Bergevin or to even suggest he is similar, is just idiotic. He hasn't hampered our team to that extent... yet...

The yet part is pretty crucial. Dorion's only been here just over a year and has already managed to sign 4 bad contracts and make 3 crippling trades. Imagine if he gets the same amount of time as Bergevin.

Which are the bad contracts, and the crippling trades?

 

[Punchbowl]

Until Dorion trades Stone for Corey Perry, I'd say he's definitely got a leg-up on Bergevin.

Big week ahead with MTL,NYI and WIN

Need 5-6 pts

GO SENS GO

Losing games is hard on the morale eh bro

It would probably be Stone + 2nd for Corey Perry given his history.

 

[Duncstar]

Very winnable game. I though our goal tending and pp are looking better, and Boucher indicated that he liked the top lines from last game

Pyatt/Duchene/Stone
Brass/Ryan/Smith

Although I'd replace Pyatt, hes been doing pretty well and his retrival ability with Duchenes net drive could be solid.

 

[Tuna99]

Makes you wonder if we should of kept Turris at 6 x $6 and just traded Chabot for Drouin, Drouin is day is as good as Duchene is, and cheaper salary and asset cost

Turris at $6M x 6yrs, was never an option for either Turris, or the Sens, both have said so in the media, many times. Once the season started without Turris having a new contract, it was obvious his time with the Sens was coming to an end.

There is no use in second guessing the trade, and using a option than was never on the table as a reason to do so, is an exercise in futility.

Tom Pyatt should be nowhere near the top 6 on any hockey team.

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

Tom Pyatt should be nowhere near the top 6 on any hockey team.

As of today, Tom Pyatt is sixth on the team, in points, despite only being 15th in TOI on the team, so until that changes, the coach will play him where he feels he helps the team the most.

I still think a Chabot for Drouin trade would of happened seeing as Chabot is ranked higher then Sergachev.

And we’d still have so many assets that trade with, 2 x 1st round picks gets you an excellent Forward or D for a cup run, let’s say he rest included in the Turris trade gets you Chara.

Drouin - Turris - Ryan
Smith - Brass - Stone
Hoff - Pageau - Dzingel
Burrows - Thompson - Patty

Chara - EK
Dion - Ceci
Chabot - Harpur
Boro - Wideman
Oduya

Tons of depth, great PP and PK players, size, speed, experience - great lineup with a different use of players
