Trade Gus to the sabres
- Rsh


Ok, but what would you feel the Sabres offer? Something fair, not far fetched.

I think the reason DJ and Dorion don’t want to develop Gus is fairly obvious. It’s just like this time last season, the Sens were out of the playoffs but a lower draft pick didn’t matter to them. All that mattered was to keep their jobs and push the pedal to the metal to fool Eugene into thinking the team would do well this year. Well we stink again and bombed with the Boucher pick. We will lose out on a better pick again in the upcoming draft with these guys pushing for meaningless wins to save their jobs! Eugene, please save us!

I dont understand that Panthers 2nd goal, you cant see it, you don't know how far across the puck is due to his glove covering it up. Like the announcers said, you cant think or guess where the puck is. wild!

you can see it from the right side far angle, you see the puck drop in the glove in the net, THROUGH the mesh of the glove.

Those guys in Toronto just make up their own rules. You can't guess where the puck is. Everybody knows that.

They just showed it for the first time, the video from the league. The TV clip didn't have it from the TV coverage.

Until they showed the league video, that's exactly what Millen was saying, but now we saw the puck actually past the post.

Ottawa outshot 31-15 after 2 periods, the Gambrell goal was soft too.

It really sucks watching Duclair when he should be here in Ottawa. That one timer was incredible on the Panthers 1st goal. He only has 26 goals lol.

Colin White didn’t see a shift in the second until about 6 min in. Then one other shift. Power play. Teirney somehow in the line up. This coach.

Good to see NJ and MTL winning, it helps Ottawa stay in the bottom 5 for the draft. Sens being competitive is a good thing but when the other teams are winning, it's the best of both worlds.

It's absolutely stunning! Here we go again, double standard. Bench White for a mistake and Gambrell, Watson, Tierney can do no wrong. It's absolutely sickening!

Read the comment from Barrykerr1, he said it best. This coach who makes....btw folks......700k.....I don't know want to hear that Eugene doesn't want to pay for him for 2 years to not coach. When you can send down 2 mil for MDZ or 6 mil for Murray, both PD mistakes.....enough is enough, start fresh next season, fire DJ's ass!

I've said in my blogs and others have said it on a National media level, Marty in MTL, Jay in EDM, you watch both of those coaches how engaged they are behind the bench with their players, they treat every player the same way. Kelly Hrudey was very blunt and directing his comments towards DJ a few weeks ago, I posted them in my blog. DJ needs to go! He doesn't get the most out of this roster. Gambrell soft goal, Formenton got the lucky bounce off the cross bar off Bobrovsky, Sens outshot 31-15, but leading due to goaltending right now. Lets see how the 3rd plays out.

lol he makes 700K, most players pay more in taxes than he makes. Brady or Chabot should tell Melnyk they will pay his salary if he fires him so they can get a real coach.

DJ has Ottawa playing not to lose again in the 3rd period as they hang onto a lead. This coach does this all the time, in almost 3 years nothing has changed. We are now mid 3rd period and only 2 SOG for Ottawa this period, all because he has them playing safe hockey....ugh!

Ducharme got 1.7 million per year, incredible eh?! I had it confirmed to me by 2 sources, originally I had tell me 775k, then when I floated it out there to a few my contacts in the org they were able to nail it down for me. You know PD is making under 1 million too. Just fire his ass, his 2 years left is less than what Ducharme was making in a year, what a joke!

Logan Brown is playing his 24th game tonight! Only 6 more to go and Ottawa gets their 4th round pick back.

Top 5 would be nice! Anyone else notice how Millen really went after Sens management for the handling of MDZ?
