If the NHL can figure this out quickly, they can really capitalize on a sports-hungry community.

That think he did in his first game back where he just undressed that poor bastard of a defenseman, passed the puck off the cage back to himself, doubled back and then fired a centering pass between 3 sticks and 4 guys to set up a tap-in was just absurd. I'll see if I can hunt it down but it was incredible. EDIT:
Just look at the damn hands, man, especially the ice-level view. After he dekes Donato and circles back he has that puck on a string and is just waiting for someone to over-commit before he threads it between 3 players and the goalie without any of them getting a stick or skate on it. Just awesome. Last edited by DJ's left nut; 05-27-2020 at 09:22 AM.. |

I'm trying to think of a comparable, like Browns fans claiming a SB win when the Ravens won it the first year they left, but that doesn't quite hit what I was looking for... At any rate, the Ottawa Senators: - reside in a small shitty town, with no night life and is cold as a witches tit. - have worst owner in the NHL, (Eugene Melnyk - look up the story behind his liver transplant) - have the worst placed arena in the league - can't sell tickets (in a Canadian market) I get the envy, though. They're sandwiched between Toronto and Montreal. People who grew up there had to pick between the 2, (before the new Senators franchise). If you're French, you're a Canadians fan, English - Leafs fan. The only guy I know from Ottawa is a Canadians fan and he's French Canadian. Winnipeg, is an innately worse market, due to the location and a low population, but it has a billionaire owner and a rabid fan base and has been successful. The Sens won't get better until Melnyk's gone and they get a new arena. |

Holy shit! The NHL just did the most NHL thing they could do in the first draw of the draft lottery. They're guaranteeing that one of the teams that loses in the "play in" round will get the #1 pick, (Alexis Lafreničre).
2020 NHL DRAFT ORDER 1. Placeholder team * 2. Los Angeles Kings 3. Ottawa Senators (from San Jose Sharks) 4. Detroit Red Wings 5. Ottawa Senators 6. Anaheim Ducks 7. New Jersey Devils 8. Buffalo Sabres There are only 8 remaining teams that aren't eligible for 1st overall: St. Louis Colorado Dallas Vegas Boston Tampa Bay Washington Philadelphia Detroit got screwed getting the 4th overall pick. Lots of interesting story lines could come out of this. |
