Seeing Big Ben playing for you like he played for us is bittersweet. We loved him and will miss him, but it was not fair to him to keep him when he is a starter calibre tender who was "victim" of a surplus of excellent goalies in Ottawa. Wish nothing but good things for him - great guy and player.

Likewise with Conacher. Always good when two fan bases can take a step back and wish departing pieces well. I really appreciate and respect the discussion we've all had regarding this trade! Great stuff, folks.

Wish I was able to see the game.. Super happy for Ben. I hope he was the piece that you guys needed in order to let your guys play loose like they need to. Sometimes all it takes is a goalie to instil confidence in a squad and it's a different picture. Re: Ottawa vs Philly.

We've had great conversation for sure! It's nice to see the true passion that you guys have for Tamba Bay. Our blogger isn't even a fan of the Sens but it's clear Tamba bay runs through your veins ahah. Keep it up!

I just have to say that I liked the deal for both teams and couldn't believe the amount of ppl on this site saying Stevie Y have up too much etc .... Amazing what a goalie that can hold ya in there can do for a team ... I hope bishop continues to make Stevie look like a genius

Happy for Bishop.... You guys will love him..

A trade is good for both teams when both fan bases are happy for the guy who left and wish them nothing but good things....

Go Lightning... except for when we play you next week!

This may turn out to be a pure hockey trade. Great to see Ben doing well for you guys, hope Conacher does the same for us!

Curious after his great start he slowed down quite a bit ... Noticed he wasn't getting minutes with same top guys ... How come ?

His defensive game is a big work in progress and his skating needs to improve. When he stopped scoring, the bad outweighed the good and Boucher was forced to put him down the lineup.

I think it would be hard to spend all that time writing about the Sens without being a fan.
