Good signing.

I like Jatos a lot. Believe he still has lots of growth in his game.

The Hainsey signing at one year makes a lot of sense when you look down the development pipeline.

Still wondering about the motive behind dealing for Zaitsev.

All reports suggest that Brannstom and Bernard-Docker are not far off from becoming NHL starters.

So, Lisa MacLeod, Minister of Tourism reportedly approaches Melnyk at a Rolling Stone concert and says

‘I am your minister and you’re a f—ing piece of s–t and you’re a f—ing loser’.”


Not bad Lisa.

Yes.

Copied quote directly out of Ottawa Sun.

Melnyk supplied the quote. Premier Ford and Minister Lisa MacLeod are not responding to media enquiries.

Not very professional.

Possibly, entirely wasted.

100% true for most Sen's fans.

Unprofessional, yes..........but it’s nice to see a politician FINALLY represent and say what their constituents want.

It’s ALMOST enough to get me to vote conservative. Haha

Ford will force MacLeod to issue public apology.

She might say something along the lines.

"I apologize to Eugene Melnyk. It was an error to compare him with human excrement. And, the fact the Ottawa Senators lost more games than any other team does not mean that Mr Melnyk should be associated with losing."

Agreed.

Curious to see what fallout there is on the political side of things, even if what she said probably represents the opinion of most of her constituents.

She was just demoted a few weeks ago in her Cabinet ranking. Perhaps Ford may choose to humiliate her and insist on a public spanking in front of the Canadian Tire Centre.

I think she already issued an apology, but she's not agreeing with what Melnyk says she said. Don't like Melnyk, but what an idiot.

It certainly was an error... excrement actually serves a very important biological and environmental function.

Agreed. How bad do you need to behave to have melnyk look like the rational one.

And shes an elected official.

Although, it did give us this. https://www.thebeaverton....ent-of-child-with-autism/

Unfortunately, after his most recent surgery Methot is pondering retirement.
https://www.tsn.ca/report...hing-retirement-1.1332842

I have to wonder if this will change some of the negative interpretation of the Vegas expansion draft. Call it the benefit of hindsight if you want, but the reality is that Methot only played 45GP over the past 2 seasons at $4.9M/yr, and if he does play again it won't be at anything close to the level he was at alongside Karlsson. It was a very unpopular decision to leave him exposed, but it's increasingly hard to suggest that it was the wrong decision.

So far I'm liking our D signings.
We 100% need to get Chabot signed long term.

I was also thinking the other day and already posted this on a different thread but... Ottawa has been trying to bolster our D. But we really don't have any vets back there (Except for Old Ronnie H). We also need to take on some sort of contract to get to the cap floor.

The Pens are in trouble cap wise, we could totally take advantage of that situation and pick up Letang for his remaining 3 years. They have been trying to get rid of him and Ottawa could use him as a short term replacement for Karlsson while Chabot develops and because of the situation the Pens are in, I bet we could get him cheap.

It also could be a good idea to bring back Dzingle for a couple a years, he's a reliable scorer, fast and could be had for likely $4.5-$5 Million per year

She’s a human being.

I don’t care enough for it to effect my life. You are wasting your time if you do.
