Your 2016-2017 Ottawa Senators

[thesensguy]

I am really liking the way our youngsters have been playing and wanted to make a fun little thread where we predict our lines and what our team could be like in 2 years if all goes right (obviously not everything will go right but just for giggles):

Mac-Turris-Ryan
Chaisson-Lazar-Stone
Puemple- Zibenejad-Robinson
???

??-Karlsson
Methot-Ceci
??-??

Lehner
Andy

Points:

Karlsson 25G 55A 80P
Turris 29G 33A 62P
Mac 25G 35A 60P
Ryan 32G 28A 60P
Stone 20G 35A 55P
Chaisson 23G 27A 50P
Zibenejad 23G 25A 48P
Lazar 22G 23A 45P

Just remember this is all for fun and don't go in and say you don't know the future or stuff like that. This is an optimistic thread.

What happened to Michalek?

Come on this is an optimistic thread no room for michalek

 

[Philadelphia Collins]

That D makes me sad

 

[Super Cake]

It also seems like you think Cowen and Hoffman won't be on the team by then. Why?

Forgot about Hoffman, meant to leave off Cowen

 

[DrEasy]

Cowen should still be there... By then he'll figure things out.

Claesson should also make it by then. Don't know about Englund or Wikstrand.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Ceci and Turris both stand out for goal totals. Boro is noticeably off the team.

Edit: hey bigrig nice lines. Beat me to them while I was working on mine. How'd you do that?

 

[BigBush*]

not liking the lack of Nick Paul in this thread

 

[Savitar]

Paul will be playing

 

[Hale The Villain]

I expect we'll eventually package some of our young depth with a pick or two to acquire an established top 6 forward, preferably a LW. Also I think/hope we'll add a solid defenseman or two whether it be this year or next.

A combination of Puempel, Prince, Pageau, Wiercioch, Michalek, Anderson, 2015 1st, 2016 1st, 2015 2nds etc... is packaged in exchange for a young top 6/top line winger (eg. Evander Kane).

Some of the assets left over are traded in exchange for a solid defenseman (eg. Michael Stone).

2016/17 roster

Kane - Zibanejad - Ryan
MacArthur - Turris - Stone
Hoffman - Lazar - Chiasson
Paul - Smith - Robinson

Cowen - Karlsson
Methot - Ceci
Borowiecki - Stone

Lehner
Driedger/Hogberg


The future is bright my friends.

 

[operasen]

Assuming no trades.

MacArthur - Turris - Ryan
Hoffman - Lazar - Stone

Smith - Zibanejad - Chiasson

Puempel - Pageau - Robinson
Prince

Methot - Karlsson
Cowen - Ceci
Boro - Gryba
Claesson

Lehner, Anderson

Traded to Contender: Michalek, Neil, Phillips
Callups: Paul, Dzingel, Englund

 

[Sun God Nika]

Im gonna take a break if Phillips and Neil find their way onto this roster

 

[operasen]

I think Murray makes them the offer to a contender for a Cup shot. We are not winning a Cup this year.

 

[tony d]

Forwards look good but we need to add some quality defenseman soon.

2016-17 lineup prediction :

MacArthur-Turris-Stone
Puempel-Zibanejad-Ryan
Paul-Lazar-Chiasson
Smith-Dzingel-Pageau
McCormick/Robinson/Schneider

Trade-Karlsson
Cowen-Ceci
Claesson-Wisktrand
Borowiecki/Englund

Lehner
Anderson

Michalek : traded (pick/prospect)
Greening : waived/traded/bought out
Wiercioch : traded
Methot : traded?
Hoffman : traded
Prince : traded

Will be gone via UFA : Condra, Neil, Legwand, Phillips, Gryba

Big question mark I have is Methot... What will happen with him? Ideally, we trade Methot + wiercioch + Prince for a good defenseman to play with Karlsson, some kind of Prime Phillips. So I'm going to predict that (for fun of course)
