<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Xspyrit</b></div><div>Love the defense EXCEPT that Hamonic should sit
Free Brannstrom. Poor guy...
Yeah missing both Pinto and Greig is rough, then Kastelic should be the 4th line Center, he was good in that role last season</div></div>
Chartier has been better at 4C this year. Kastelic was STRUGGLING this year, I thought it looked better with him 4RW tbh.
Also yeah, it's beating a dead horse, but Hamonic is really bad. Unfortunately Bernard-Docker has been bad too imo (though better). They don't have an internal option that's gonna take that spot from Hamonic Unfortunately. They need to make a move on the blueline. Find a way.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Green4D4</b></div><div>Exactly, Chartier is nice in the 4th line PK role but give me Greig all day every day.
Kubalik has shown he can put the puck in the net from time to time but he is literally a black hole out there. Invisible for a guy who's 6'2". He also suffers from having no one able to retrieve the puck for him.</div></div>
I'd be happy if Ottawa could replace him with Morgan Frost. More defensive upside by far, and I think he'd benefit from a change of scenery. Failing that, there are a number of useful guys in the league who could be better in that role for cheap. Ideally someone who can slide down once Pinto is back.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Green4D4</b></div><div>Free Vlad. Poor guy...</div></div>
Counting the days til Greig is back. Huge difference maker on that 3rd line. A speedy forward who can forecheck and backcheck and is a sneaky good playmaker. He's literally exactly what Terry needs. Liked Chartier on the 4th line to start the year, but he's so far out of his depth in that role.
Also it's high time to be done with the Kubalik thing. Brings nothing to the table in this lineup. Get what you can and bring in a cheap two way 3rd liner.

Best Rookies So Far This Season
Greig was unreal to start this season. WAY more of a factor than I could have anticipated. Really hope he's able to find that stride again once he's back in the lineup, the Sens have been a black hole for bottom six Offense since he got hurt.

We are not making the playoffs without a brand new Head Coach
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BsInOttawa</b></div><div>I think why it's coming at the coach now is that there's no apparent issue with the players' effort, commitment or skill level.
Their decision making sucks as a team. They're often working hard, but creating openings for the other team. Taking risks without a payoff. The outside-looking-in conclusions are that one of the following is true:
1. DJ Smith coaching staff has a good tactical system for what the players should be doing in various situations, but is unable to effectively communicate / teach tactical decision making
2. DJ Smith coaching staff does not have a good tactical system
3. The players all have horrible hockey sense. Including players that did not have that reputation on other teams who then come to Ottawa</div></div>
The last point is actually such a great one. How many players have come to Ottawa, sucked ass, and then refound their game as soon as they left. The number is WAY higher than the number of times the opposite happens.

Ottawa will probably flip Tarasenko at the deadline if they're out of it but they'll want assets back, not sure they'd want to tie themselves to Rakell.</div></div>
Right now, I think Ottawa's more likely to sign him vs trade him. He's been good for them when he's not saddled with Rourke Chartier as his C.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SharkTank</b></div><div>Who do you think would be an ideal replacement for head coach?</div></div>
They need a guy who can give this team structure and discipline. Team has neither, and it effects them all across the ice. Careless passes, lost D-Zone coverages, lazy penalties. Of available options, I really like the newest option, Dean Evason. I liked how Minny played the last couple years. Other options like Woodcroft, Julien, Roy could all be guys too. I think my ideal right now (it changes) would be a bench with Evason as head coach, and Claude Julien as an assistant with Ben Sexton (who the organization is clearly grooming for the job one day). Also lowkey, if Cheryl Pounder wanted to, I think she could be a great addition to the bench. Every time I watch her on the broadcast, she clearly sees exactly what is wrong with the way they play.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SharkTank</b></div><div>Why does Smith get most of the blame in Ottawa? I understand he's a part of it. Seems like a convenient scapegoat. Like Holl was in Toronto.
It's as if Smith is preventing Ottawa from winning a Cup?</div></div>
DJ is a great rebuild coach. He came in at a time when the vibes in the organization were absolutely awful. They were in the start of an ugly rebuild with a fractured locker room. He's a massive reason this current group is so tight knit. He kept vibes really high for the bad years, and he was a great coach for letting young talent cut their teeth in the NHL, even if things weren't working. Not a lot of coaches would have stuck through with Timmy down the middle, when it was SO bad to start, but he did, because Tim's skill set would ultimately serve him better down the middle.
That said, Ottawa's ready to take the next step, and they simply don't play the right way under DJ. Every year it's the same. Slow starts to the season, a complete lack of team structure leading to disjointed transitions and chaos in the D Zone, and an inability to put a full 60 minute complete effort most nights. The team needs results, and he's had 5 years with this group. These glaring flaws holding the team back are either DJ Smith hockey working as intended, or even after 5 years he still hasn't got his message through to the players. All the signs this season point to an immature team that needs a firmer hand on the wheel.

Provorov isn't actually that great imo. Not really that impressive an offensive player, and he's not good defensively. I think he's super overrated just because he plays big minutes

That's not how it works. Pinto is exempt due to his RFA status. They'll be able to sign him when his suspension is over.

If Chabot's back they'll immediately be much better, even more so when Greig is back too. I won't be surprised if they start winning more consistently, but until they pull the trigger on the coach I've got no faith they end the year more than a fringe playoff team.
