Even with him in the lineup we're still gonna allow 40 shots every night. We need to trade.

We need a 2 way winger like silf and a game breaking centre like spezza.
No, seriously.
(and those 2 are closer to a cup than we are)

We have enough 2 way players. We need an elite offensive talent(preferably a center) and a top 4 dman.

Honest question, what do you think Kadri would cost for us to get?

Two summers ago they were asking for Z-bad +. This was before Z-bad stepped up and proved he was an effective player at the NHL level though.

So my guess is they would ask for Colin White +.

It wasn't Zbad +, it was a straight swap for the two. Maybe other pieces were thrown in, but they were the centrepieces.

when they were talking about it on tv, it sounded like Murray wanted Kadri and was willing to add to Zib to get him. not sure what that add was though

Tell me one thing that you think will change after 20-30 games compared to what we've seen after 5 games and what we know about this team.

Our players will find their feet. Karlsson, Stone, Ryan, Wiercioch, Zibanejad, MacArthur, and Anderson are all guys who I fully expect will be better throughout the season than they have been these past few games.

One thing? Just one?

1) Zibanejad will round his game out.
2) Ryan as well
3) Wiercioch cannot possibly continue to be as bad as he has been (though he might not be as good as he was during the last 20 games of last season, but definitely better than he has to start this one)
4) we should get the shots disparity closer to even (instead of being out hot by large margins each game)
5) Cowen will probably have a stretch of a few bad games in a row (and the usual suspects will pop in with their "I told you so"'s)
6) Turris won't continue scoring at his current pace
7) Karlsson will be better, that's as guaranteed a guarantee as I can make.
8) Anderson will be better as the season progresses, he always is.
9) Hoffman will go through a rough patch, but most skilled players who play his style of game always do.
10) Ceci's game will improve assuming his D-partner isn't total balls (so either Wier picks his game up, or they re-jig the d-pairs)

And on, and on... I could probably add 10 more points to this list. So much can change in a 20-30 game sample that you just can't account for in a 5 game sample. I mean... do you expect the Anaheim Ducks to score less than 30 goals total over the entire season? A 5-game sample size is barely a drop in the water compared to a full season.

The only thing you can take from those game are the points in the standings, and an idea of what needs improvement. It is hardly indicative of how the rest of the season will play out. Sens fans should be acutely aware of this, considering how last season played out for us.

The rumour was that the Sens offered Zbad for Kadri straight up. TOR came back with Zbad+ for Kadri. BM thought about it, but ultimately didn't pull the trigger. I'm happy that trade never happened. Actually, the best trades the BM has made are the ones that he didn't. (i.e. Zbad/kadri, Nash, etc)

Nope, he is the exact opposite of the centre we need. Zib is better right now and will continue to get better.

This reads like a closet leaf's fan trying to rob us.

:)

I can see the point DMST is making though, the Sens lack a center (Exception of Turris) with stronger offensive skill relative to his other abilities. Or atleast, one that's quite a bit more consistent with it

I would take Zibanejad over Kari 1000000 ties out of 100, ainec.


Don't need Prima Donnas on this team. Kadri is one of the last guys in the entire league I'd like to see on the Sens.


Kadri, Hall, Kassian... no room on our team for garbage work ethic, toxic personalities, and me-first attitudes. No team with any of those three players will ever win a cup, unless they are relegated to "passenger" status.

man I love Kadri so much. He has elite offensive abilities, is a total pest, draws penalties, and is pretty decent defensively. I'd offer Wiercioch + Puempel/Prince + 2nd for Kadri + DMan. Our team would be nasty.


Hoffman - Turris - Stone
Ryan - Kadri - Zibanejad
MacArthur - Pageau - Lazar
Michalek - Smith - Neil/Chiasson

or

Hoffman - Turris - Stone
Lazar - Kadri - Ryan
MacArthur - Zibanejad - Pageau
Michalek - Smith - Neil/Chiasson

and so many other possibilities!

Why do you feel like that about Kadri? From what I've heard Kadri is a committed pro and a pretty good guy. Is it just the missed practice etc. stuff that is public knowledge or is your opinion based on something else? Just asking because I have heard this view before but its generally unfounded, and I know you're not one for wild, baseless opinions.
