Are the offers for Bishop legit or is it just speculation? By legit I mean reported by a legitimate source. (Jones+ 2nd/ Couturier/ Rinaldo +2nd for Bishop). Any other offers to players on the Sens?

The Couturier one came from Pierre Lebrun, can't get much more reliable than that.

As far as other offers go, they do not like letting that information out. Players have a history of not taking trade talks well. I.E. Bobby Ryan.

yeah, those offers are from pierre lebrun on the tsn broadcast yesterday.

couturier wasnt an offer though, it was a demand by ottawa that philly wouldnt do.

One of Murray's other demands was supposedly Eberle as part of a package.

Someone said that on the other page...who knows if its true

Makes sense.

Man, I would have loved Couturier. Would have been fine adding to Bishop.

I think the Murray's went about it the ******* pick up technique.

Go up to 100 girls and ask if they want to go screw around. 1/100 may say yes.

We got Tampa to say yes. Hussie.

Philly should have given us Couturier. One trade and you don't have to go out and spend another 50m on a goalie, eazy.

Great First game for Bishop. Couldn't happen to a better guy.

I don't know if anyone has pointed this out before but Cory Conacher is a distant relative of Lionel Conacher who was voted Canada's greatest athlete for the first half of the 20th Century and a member of the HHOF. He'd also be related to Roy and Charlie Conacher who are also in the Hall of Fame. Nice pedigree.

Nice to see Bishop have a great debut. Good guy who was great for us. Congrats and well deserved. Anybody complaining about getting fleeced is crazy. Kid is a legit NHLer.

Michalek - Turris - Alfredsson
Conacher - Zibanejad - Silfverberg
Greening - Smith - Neil
Latendresse - O'Brien - Condra

Hoffman will probably get sent down, if he isn't placed on IR. Kassian ends up rotating in and out.

Lineup becomes a lot easier to predict if Spezza and Michalek both come back at the same time:

Greening - Spezza - Michalek
Latendresse - Turris - Alfredsson
Conacher - Zibanejad - Silfverberg
Condra - Smith - Neil

No Regin?

If this was the same Senators organization as 3-5 years ago, Regin would still be pencilled into the lineup for next season. Daugavins wouldn't be a Bruin and O'Brien would be a lock too. They're all good players. Defensively responsible, cheap, youngish players with some offensive upside.

We're deeper now though and we have options. I know some people are attached to players, but we can't keep everyone. Which do you want...Regin or Stone? Is Daugvains worth diving up Condra? Hard choices need to be made.
