he played a big role in his teams last three meaningful pre-season playoff games, and they gave up 22 goals. scoreboard matters, spatso says.

Literally, a banner year for the sens.

That banner will look great next to the 2017 we won 2 out of 4 rounds needed for the cup banner.

the part where they gave up more goals then they scored. the only team to do so. thats a hard thing to fluke on.

most teams who surrender more to the opponent than the get themselves dont succeed. without a ton of fluke luck

The standing at the end of the regular season are based on Points (not goal differential) ... and the playoff seeding is also based on Points(not goal differential).


The Senators accumulated more Points, in the regular season than the leafs.


Points matter ......... and when you don't want to count what matters (Points), you make what you want to count (goal differential) matter.


Whenever the NHL decides to base their standings on goal differential, and not points, then you would have a point ................ but until then, you just come off as a fool.

But Spatso guaranteed Chabot would make the team out of camp and contribute right away. Now he's starting in the minors? I'm confused.
- BetterCallSaul



Spatso does this every pre-season ......... in fact this year he claimed 5 rookies, in his opinion, would make the team.

Every year I point out that there is not any room, for the number of rookies he think will make the team.


I've been telling him for a couple of months now that Ottawa has 7 NHL D men on one way contracts ...... and until that changes, Chabot is playing in Belleville, unless called up for injury replacement.


He has the same blind spot every year .............. perhaps it has something to being with being a former leaf fan?

The thread is not about the past, but the Leafs win that discussion, HUGE unless you hand pick a timeframe that suits you.

In terms of the present, you have Karlsson. We are up in every other aspect of an organization.

If you can't debate that, (you can't), then save yourself the humiliation and go take a break for a while.

You have your opinion ..........and it's based on what? Your crystal ball?

You're entitled to your opinion, and you're welcome to it.

I look more at the present, and "past practice" when forming my opinion ....... and the "past practice" of the Sens last season indicated to me that they're in the mix for a WC spot at best ............... BUT, in the present, they've lost a couple of players from last spring's deep playoff round, where they came within one goal in double overtime, in the ECFs, from advancing to the SCFs for the second time in a decade.

So with the loss of Methot and MacArthur, the injury to Karlsson and how I rank the other teams in the Eastern Conference ........ the Senators in my opinion, will be a lottery team this season.

My opinion can and will change as the season progresses.

It might just be the preseason lingering, but I don't see the Habs bring that good this season.

wasnt chabot and 3 other sens on a list for something at some point?

its a shame the pre-season that meant so much for spatso started with the highest of highs then went crashing down to the lowest of lows.

chabot and white he said. one is out for 8 weeks the other was sent down. now spatso is hiding in shame. preseason meant so much.

preseason means nothing at all. a lesson was learned here, i believe.
