B-Sens Bingo 2015-16 Season thread

[DrunkUncleDenis]

New season, new thread.

Last post from the 14-15 thread:

I hope you're right but lots of questions to be answered;

- Goaltending is raw with both Driedger and OC unproven at the pro level

- Defense is questionable depending on where Wideman ends up, whether making Ottawa or clearing waivers and how Wikstrand responds in his first season on NA ice

- The loss (at some given point) as both Prince and Puempel will see significant time for the big club

- How well will Dziurzynski bounce back from injury as the remaining tenured player from the 2011 championship team

- If Claesson doesn't get called up how will that effect his ice time for Bingo as the season drags on, as the same can be said about Wideman

- Will Lazar be sent down to work on making him a complete player?

I could go on and on for each player but there are a lot of questions on how well the BSens will be

Lots of talent going to be on this roster. I can see a good adjustment period with all the new blood but this team reeling later on in the season.

Can someone more informed on the subject make 2 lists? One of the additions vs a list of the substractions

or it could in this form :

O'Dell replaced Camper

etc

 

[MainDotC]

I gotcho streamin' riigght here!

 

[playasRus]

Driedger must be thrilled to be out of the ECHL.

Former Sen Aaron Johnson is at camp with Calgary on a PTO.............

Aaron Johnson AHL deal ☺☻☺

According to @Fan960Steinberg, Aaron Johnson has signed an AHL contract with Stockton. #Flames

 

[Real Smart Sens Fan]

Is there any information that indicates Dreidger will start in Bingo? Greenham was pretty darn good for Binghamton last year and led them in games (29 to 25 by Hammond) and had more than 2x the amount of wins that Hammond did (15 to 7). It seems likely (to me at least) that we start with Greenham/OConnor and let Dreidger come up and steal the job. By the end of the season I expect Dreidger to play close to the amount of games that Greenham did, with both finishing with about 20 starts, but I expect Greenham will get the bulk of his at the start and Dreidger will get the bulk of his at the end.

Unless, of course, there has been an indication otherwise.

We're being told by management here in Evansville that we will be sent Greenham this season.

Just off the top of my head:

Subtractions:
Johnson, D. Grant, A. Grant, New, Thompson, Mills, Gryba, Lehner, Legwand, Kramer, Culek, Bertuzzi, Camper

Additions:
Harpur, Lindberg, Paul, O'Connor, Ewanyk, Sortini, Wikstrand, Kostka, O`Dell, Carlisle


ECHL - Hobbs, Crawford, Rumble, Penny, Leveille, Zay, Lepine, Tuzzolino & maybe Dunn

 

[Gibbie42]

My notes from our weekly radio show say Scott Greenham, Alex Wideman, Nick Tuzzolino, and possibly Matt Zay. I've also heard Rutkowski and I expect to see Leveille (I'm thinking he was signed at our suggestion). Rumble's under contract to Eville, I expect to see him here rather than get signed in Bingo. Everyone mentions Lepine coming down but I'm not thinking so. He played in up most of last season and was resigned by Bingo. I bet he stays there. I'm thinking Danny Hobbs comes down as well but I'm not sure if I've been told that or just think that.

Crawford is not signed. He is 18.

 

[Bileur]

You guys are going to enjoy Lindberg

 

[aragorn]

Crawford is not signed. He is 18.

Right & sent back to his junior team today.

You might see Harpur as well, at least at the start if Chris Wideman clears..I agree Lepine will stick in Bingo

 

[operasen]

No Wikstrand.

Wideman's chances are getting better and better. Claesson has paid his dues and is the 1st call up I'd think.

Harpur to Binghamton. Chabot goes back to Junior - too bad there is not one exemption per year (per team) for a high end skill guy to play AHL instead of JrA. Chabot would be that guy.

 

[MainDotC]

Less than 2 weeks until game night. I can't wait!

By all accounts Wideman & Prince are staying in Ottawa to start the yr anyway. I would disagree with you on Harpur especially with Wikstrand going back to Sweden I would think that Harpur being drafted by the Sens may have a better chance of playing & staying in Bingo. I would also disagree with Lepine given that Ottawa just signed Mark Fraser to also play in Bingo. I think because of that Lepine will likely be sent to Evansville. Should be interesting to see what happens though.

Darren Kramer in Moose camp ☺☻☺

Former Senator Darren Kramer is in the Manitoba Moose training camp on an AHL tryout............................

I liked him he gave you what he had (busted his rear) and even developed a scoring touch last season.....

He came a long way in 3 yrs...................

I wish we could have kept him but not in the cards..............

I wish him well with the Moose...................

Hard to assess player developments without actually seeing them play in person..

I'll be at Bingo's camp and we'll see what Harpur brings..as far as Lepine, he'll stick regardless of Fraser's PTO.

Looking forward to hearing your assessments from Bongo's camp. It's always fun to watch those things, enjoy.

Like I mentioned earlier on twitter today, three things that caught my eye..

- Lindberg stood out

- Dunn was reprimanded halting on ice drills

- Driedger is going to be challenged with O'Connor bypassing him

Jeez, Dunn's gotta be careful. He's already got a reputation after how last season ended for him.

- not surprised about Dunn, I have him going to the ECHL.
- not surprised about Lindberg & think you will like Nick Paul too who I am hoping big things from him this yr in Bingo.
- not surprised about Dreidger, I think Greenham may pass him too.
- other guys to keep an eye on, Kostka seems like a good addition on defence, Harpur is a big guy & will be a project but may also bring some offence besides being a shutdown defenceman. Mark Fraser has NHL experience & I expect will be placed on waivers at some point to be sent to Bingo & Eric O'Dell has impressed up here during the preseason. Hope you guys have a great yr.
