Erik Karlsson.

The Ottawa Senators, soon to be, The Ottawa Red Wings.

 

[Sens With Benefits]

How can we send him down? Thrives when challenged.

Lol. You wish.

 

[Sens With Benefits]

Lol. You wish.

To be fair, we are turning into a team like the Red Wings. A lot of Swedes, Paul Maclean as our coach. Obviously the success won't come like that, that fast. But we're building a great team.

Erik Karlsson.

Not only Karlsson! Alfies good enough to play another year or two!

 

[HSF]

He hasn't had much to do... Still a long way to go for this kid

Was a beast in the 3rd

Clutch as they come!

 

[SpezDispenser]

He's a beast. Seeing him play I wonder how he doesn't have a .999 save % in the AHL.

 

[joe89]

Two terrific showings. Would be unfair to send him to the B-sens until Anderson is back.

Maybe because his rebound control needs quite a bit of work. Our defence just does a good job of clearing them.

ben bishop must be pretty pissed off.

Meh, it's not great, but it's far from poor.

 

[His Beardliness*]

I get the feeling Ottawa got Bishop just to light a fire under Lehners ass.

 

[Man Rocket]

He played lights out against Boston

he already signed a one-way for next year....that's got to soften the blow a lot

Will be an interesting camp next season. If Lehner legitmately wins a job do the Sens send him back to the AHL because he's on ELC?

Didn't understand the Bishop trade since they had Lehner to come up and cover for Anderson.

"**** this guy. We have BEN BISHOP now!"

I think they got Bishop as insurance. At the time Lehner had played just 9 career NHL games, now he's up to 10, and he's only 20 years old. If Anderson doesn't come back anytime soon, and Lehner hit a rut, they'd have to rely on Auld, which would basically mean a ruined season, despite the team looking pretty good this year. With Bishop, they can now rely on whoever is hotter of Lehner or Bishop. Lehner has looked great, but relying on a 20 year old rookie to start night in night out is potentially asking for trouble.

Ottawa has an extremely bright future, I see many close races for the division title in the next 5 years. Kinda stinks cause Ottawa is the only NE team I don't hate

Damn right, drafting Swedes equals success

That may change in about 6 weeks.

Why does that stink? Hopefully we can have some good battles without developing the silly obsessions with being an intense and hated rivalry. I personally have enough hate for Toronto and Montreal - I'd rather it not reach that pitch with Buffalo and Boston.
