Senators Rebuild Can’t Happen With Ryan

Senators Rebuild Can’t Happen With Ryan

September 14th, 2018 The Erik Karlsson drama in Ottawa is over. The Senators have traded Karlsson to the San Jose Sharks. Say what you want about the return Ottawa received for the former captain, but it is apparent the Senators are embracing the idea of a rebuild. The team appears ready to begin anew, but there are obstacles in the way of a proper rebuild,...
Every NHL Team’s Worst Contract

Every NHL Team’s Worst Contract

August 20th, 2018 In a salary cap league, contract negotiations become critical to building perennial contenders. A team cannot afford too many value-negative contracts: contracts where the money owed to the player is likely significantly higher than the value he will bring to the team over the length of the contract. General managers who avoid handing...
Karlsson for Ekblad: A Good Hockey Trade

Karlsson for Ekblad: A Good Hockey Trade

July 10th, 2018 The conclusion of the 2017-18 National Hockey League campaign brought about one of the most hotly anticipated offseasons in recent memory. And yet, outside of John Tavares signing with the Toronto Maple Leafs, it’s really just been a whole lot of “meh.” Tavares aside, none of the decisions of any unrestricted free agent has...
Karlsson Slipping Away from Golden Knights

Karlsson Slipping Away from Golden Knights

July 6th, 2018 For the past five months, the Vegas Golden Knights have been connected to Erik Karlsson. The two-time Norris Trophy winner is on the trading block for the Ottawa Senators as they look to rebuild, and according to rumors, the Golden Knights came very close to landing Karlsson at the trade deadline this season before time ran out. With the...
Ottawa Senators 3 Biggest Questions

Ottawa Senators 3 Biggest Questions

July 4th, 2018 This year was one to forget for the Ottawa Senators, finishing second-to-last in the NHL after a promising playoff run the year before. As the free agency period has gotten underway, there are many questions that still need to be answered. The Sens have already addressed one question, placing right winger Alex Burrows on waivers to buy...
Bobby Ryan's Nightmare Season Continues

Bobby Ryan's Nightmare Season Continues

February 7th, 2018 Bobby Ryan entered the Ottawa Senators 2017-18 season looking to carry over the momentum from his strong showing in the Stanley Cup playoffs last spring. However, any hopes that the veteran winger would be able to stay healthy this year were dashed before the end of October when Ryan broke his right index finger while blocking a...
Senators Weekly: Erik Karlsson Leading by Example

Senators Weekly: Erik Karlsson Leading by Example

December 19th, 2017 During the NHL 100 Classic, the Ottawa Senators' stars came to play. Craig Anderson registered a shutout, stopping all 28 Montreal Canadiens shots. Erik Karlsson logged nearly 33 minutes of ice time, blocked eight shots, and assisted on the game-winning goal. Bobby Ryan scored a breakaway goal after stripping Jonathan Drouin of the...
3 Senators Who Need Big Seasons

3 Senators Who Need Big Seasons

August 1st, 2017 There’s a lot to be positive about in Ottawa these days if you’re an Ottawa Senators fan: Erik Karlsson is in his prime and tearing up the league, on one leg, at times; the team is coming off a trip to the Eastern Conference Final against the Pittsburgh Penguins where they finished just a goal shy of a Stanley Cup Final berth; and...
Mock Expansion Draft: Golden Knights Select Best Contracts Available

Mock Expansion Draft: Golden Knights Select Best Contracts Available

June 19th, 2017 From one extreme to the other. Yesterday, I published a mock expansion draft that showed the potential of the Vegas Golden Knights selecting the best players available from every team without making any trades or side deals. https://twitter.com/TheHockeyWriter/status/876546333414477825 Today, I’m taking a different approach...
Mock Expansion Draft: Golden Knights Select Best Players Available

Mock Expansion Draft: Golden Knights Select Best Players Available

June 18th, 2017 George McPhee is going to be a busy man over the next few days — perhaps the busiest man on the planet — leading up to Wednesday’s unveiling of the Vegas Golden Knights’ expansion draft roster. McPhee will be wheeling and dealing, engaging in trade negotiations with most, if not all of the NHL’s 30 other teams. A few deals...
Predicting Senators' Expansion Draft Protection List

Predicting Senators' Expansion Draft Protection List

June 12th, 2017 The Expansion Draft is less than a week away and the NHL is ready to officially welcome its 31st franchise – which still sounds a little odd – the Vegas Golden Knights. By this point in the process, most teams have likely decided, at the very minimum, if they’re taking the 7-3-1 protection format (seven forwards, three...
Rumor Rundown: NHL Teams Prepared to Offer "Sweeteners"

Rumor Rundown: NHL Teams Prepared to Offer "Sweeteners"

May 27th, 2017 Rumblings exist that there are NHL teams who have players they either want to lose in NHL Expansion or are prepared to pay to keep. Those teams are making plans and lining up the dominos in an effort to do what's necessary to have the 2017 NHL Expansion Draft proceedings go in their favor. Will it work? At least three teams are rumored...
4 Senators Vegas Fans Should Know

4 Senators Vegas Fans Should Know

May 19th, 2017 Our recommendations on who to know for Vegas fans rolls on and we've reached a team that you can still watch if you have the means. Ottawa is up next, and the Golden Knights are sure to have some intriguing options to choose from. Big, small, bank-breaker, bargain bin. The Senators have a little bit of everything and it's served them...
Overtime With BSC: Senators Silencing Critics

Overtime With BSC: Senators Silencing Critics

May 18th, 2017 The Ottawa Senators won't make it out of the first round. Even if they do, there's no chance they'll still be playing come the Eastern Conference Finals. These are things that the Ottawa Senators and their fanbase have heard all season long. Despite this, the team competed hard each and every game and worked their way to the...
Golden Knights Mock Expansion Draft: Easter Edition

Golden Knights Mock Expansion Draft: Easter Edition

May 7th, 2017 OK, so Easter was a few weeks ago, but much of the legwork for this mock expansion draft was done in April at the conclusion of the NHL regular season. And, despite the publishing delay, I wanted to stick with the holiday theme. Alas, a lot has changed since...
