Thread: Sens NHL24 ratings if it were me

Pretty solid ratings honestly, but I'd give Greig a higher rating then Kelly and MacEwan. Forsberg also could be more like an 81 or 82. Timmy could even be 92! Otherwise very Good!

Thread: do the sens abroad make playoffs

hot take yes. top 6 is actually spread in scheme fits, would be fun to watch those 2 lines. bottom 6 is very intimitading, big bodies with versatile defensives assets. ya the defence might be weak but they are lead by the best defensive forward in todays game theyd be ok. that tandem would also be underrated.

I hope so.

The Pierre Dorion era in Ottawa has been like a roller coaster ride to say the least.

Thread: EK65

Gotta give you credit; this is one of the more interesting ideas I've seen on here. SJ would essentially be paying 11.5m to Chabot and Karlsson combined, but for a much younger player

Thread: Just shut up and kiss already

From what Friedman was just reporting, Sounds like a deal is close to being finalized between Detroit and Ottawa for Alex DeBrincat. Probably goes down in the next few days. I've a feeling the contract termination of Zadina's contract is part of it. Berggren+2nd round pick sounds very plausible. We shall see.

Thread: Best first lines in Sens history

Not really one of the best by any stretch, but the Smith-Pageau-Stone line was so much fun. Zack Smith could not stop scoring goals, and Pageau really came into his own as a defensive C that year.

Thread: Top 10 RWs in the league

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dekes</b></div><div>I’m not disagreeing with his rankings I’m just saying you can make a case for all 5 of the guys I listed, all depends on the team you have around them, the system you run and the player style you prefer, they are all different and elite in their own ways.

Pasta: speedy winger that can score from anywhere/ underrated passing abilities aswell
Rantanen: big winger that can shoot and is an elite passer
Kuch: smaller winger with elite vision and is hard to predict his movement/ always mis-directing defences
Marner: speedy 2 way winger who I’d say out of the 5 is the best play driver
Tkachuk: physical hard nosed winger who drives the net very well and plays great on both sides of the ice</div></div>

Only thing I don't like is excluding Stone from the list, if not for his injuring he could absolutely have a chance of cracking that top 5

Thread: Top 10 RWs in the league

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dekes</b></div><div>Don’t base everything off points my guy, that’s a casual hockey fan thing to do.

That being said I think Between Pastrnak/ Tkachuk/ Kuch/ Rantanen and Marner you could make a case for any of them to be the top guy depending on the type of player you would prefer on your squad</div></div>

Tkachuk's one of the best 2-way wingers league wide. I think Rantanen and Kuch are better as purely offensive wingers but Tkachuk's all around game may push him above them now. The total points in the last 2 years are more icing on top

karlsson was the best analytical offensive player in the league he just needs a good shutdown guy by his side. hedman is the worst guy here by far

Time will tell. Will certainly be an exciting game to watch, so much talent on both sides. I expect all offense and no defense. 6-4 Ottawa win is my prediction

Thread: ranking Ottawas top 6 forwards Is there a team with a better 5 or 6

I could see Edmonton, Colorado, Toronto and maybe St. Louis being able to go head to head with them. Honestly the real issue here is if the defense and goaltending is ok.

The third line of Pinto, Mathieu Joseph and Formenton is awesome. Speed, skill and tenacity. Your bottom six comment does not make much sense to me.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>HabsRafiki</b></div><div>Biggest weakness: Ottawa fans. They don't show up, so the ownership sells off the best players. I know, there's all sorts of chatter that things will be different now. I'll believe it when I see it.</div></div>

500 new corporate seat holders and a 25% increase in season ticket sales just in the last few weeks alone. Almost as if the fanbase was never the problem, it was the owner alienating local businesses and fans. Ottawa's always had a great fanbase, they've just had the morale pounded out of them by a piece of trash owner who was ruining the team. Prior to the start of the rebuild Ottawa was a middle of the pack attendance team, even being in the top 10 at times

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Melnyk_0ut</b></div><div>If we sign Giroux, I could see Brown and/or Formenton being moved for a defenceman. Etiher way, you just HAVE to love that top 9. Easily better than what we iced in 2017.</div></div>

Still a lot of draft left tonight. I wouldn't be shocked to see Ottawa move again tonight. I think Brown is probably gone this summer.

Yeah this forward group feels special. I really think this is a group they can win with. But add Giroux and it might be the most talented forward group Ottawa has ever had.
