Management GM Pierre Dorion/Front Office Thread - Part V

[Ice-Tray]

Aggozino and Sokolov are expected to go back down, and Paul is expected to slot back at wing when Pinto and Norris are back.

I suspect Shaw and Sabourin would take White and Tkachuk's roster spots,

Baring a pick up I suspect you’re right, though it looks like Kelly is almost ready as well.

Also, word is that Brady will sign Monday so no biggie.

Shaw and Sabourin both making the team opening night is a hell of an indictment of this GM…who I was told was very busy all summer. There are so many better options that were available on waivers.

So we've got White, Watson and Bishop hurt. We've got Tkachuk not signed. and we've got a couple guys in Belleville knocking on the door. Those guys are short term filler that allows the kids that need a bit more development time time to develop

Where did you hear Tkachuk is signing Monday?

Very poor risk management if anything. Business 101. If 3 of your worst players get hurt at any given time there should really be a way to mitigate playing those players in question.

Right... And so we sign a league vet for 1 million that maybe plays 20 games when injuries are at their worst which causes 40 pages of traffic in here about a useless vet taking up time that a prospect should be playing

I agree, those guys shouldn't be playing but we're pretty banged up and you can't have 16 guys up front on one ways either

The center is where we need the most help,we can manage the wingers ...But White and Bishop being hurt ,really stings the bottom 6

I was just kidding, sorry!

Wish he would have traded for one of the top 6 centres rumoured to be available like Sean Monahan

I am hearing the same here in Montreal. I read it this afternoon on a reputable hockey site.

This is very reassuring. I was sceptical at first but that convinced me. Thank god its finally done and won't drag into the season.

This thread can be closed now. As soon as I finish my turkey dinner, pumpkin pie with Tkachuks

Whose "word"?

 

[Cosmix]

I think in 3 yrs the Sens could have Chabot, Sanderson & Kleven on the left side, they all seem very capable & Kleven has shown he can skate & has some skills. At that point I expect that JBD will be an everyday player, Zub may still be around & Ottawa would have drafted a top pairing RD by then.

I also expect that Roger could be a decent RD for them down the road. While it seems far away it is slowly coming together. Chabot & Zub are the only two D that I would keep from this current group.

Many "ifs" for those young Defencemen: Keleven, JBD and Roger (plus Thomson).

I think we need another high end D prospect that hopefully could be obtained with a high draft pick.

Who would have guessed that as FYOUS is about to kick off on Thursday that we would be looking at the lists of available scraps with 10 point/-20 potential to fill out several positions.....except of course everybody. Outside of a .940 save percentage for the year, this will be 5 years without a playoff sniff....and counting.
