White had brief stretches with that level of production in OTT too, but they were too brief and too infrequent. Unfortunately, the role White was signed long-term by OTT to play was that of a #2C/#3C, and he failed to deliver - and isn't playing that role in FLA either. He also just went through the disgrace of a buyout, and was given a 1yr deal to prove himself. So it's reasonable to expect him to be exceptionally focused to start the season. However, given that he's only playing <12min/GP and currently has a shot% of >28%, those numbers will likely drop-off before long. But I never disliked White, and hope he finds new opportunity in FLA to really prove himself.

White is playing on the 4th line against other teams bottom defense pairings, so he is getting great matchups plus like you said, on a one year deal, playing for his next contract.

It's very early, obviously, but much was made in the off-season about comparing the productivity of the top-6 forwards of the Leafs & Senators. That would be Tkachuk, Stutzle, Batherson, Norris, DeBrincat & Giroux, vs. Matthews, Tavares, Marner, Nylander, Bunting & Kerfoot.

Quite an interesting result after the first 5GP-6GP...
Senators - 30GP, 12G, 20A, 32Pts
Leafs - 36GP, 11G, 20A, 31Pts

The fact that it's even close is a testament to how much the team has upgraded in terms of pure scoring ability. But as of right now, they're 4th in the league in scoring/GP, have a 25.0% PP, and top-3 in terms of FO%.

Great stats

For some reason a few people on Twitter that call themselves Sens insiders, starting saying it was his wrist, which got a bunch of fans thinking this. So I am sure he saw it Twitter, not his fault at all, just a few Twitter guys who pump their chests said this and caused many on Twitter to question if it was his wrist or shoulder.

Got ya, from the reports and watching how it unfolded it definitely is shoulder. It looks like possible dislocation and am not sure from his medical stuff if that's what he had surgery for before. A lot of chronic dislocators will get a mesh put in to try and keep it from dislocating. By his reaction and how it unfolded it's giving me an uneasy feeling of dislocation on a surgically repaired shoulder.
