I could definitely see us going 4-1 over that stretch.

they're going to hit a Bruins team that is pissed, a surging Pens team, a slumping Sabres and a rejuvinated Habs team and finally Joey McDonald

Sens go 2-3

Sure the Bruins might be pissed, but they've lost how many out of the last 20 games, something like 15?
And a rejuvinated Habs team? They won one game on a Dung late game penalty....again.

I am personally thinking Ottawa is loving this role of spoiler, beating some of the contending teams, Tampa excluded of course, but beating Boston and moreso Montreal hurt their chances of good playoff spots (or in montreal's case, a spot at all), so Ottawa will be loving beating them this important time of year.

I want a pick in the top-7. And Cowen's injury seems like a risk, so I want top-6.

Now is IMO just an awful time to turn it around.

Why couldn't they have secured a nice draft position and then won like 150-0 on the last game of the season? That still gives them some hope for next year. :@@@@:

Exactly. Beating Boston (if they can) won't do much other than just stick the needle a little further into the B's players perhaps, but if they can kick the snot out of the habs, I'll be the first one cheering loud and proud... You'll hear me all the way in Ottawa!

we would definitely have 3 or 4 teams cheering for us to do so, so lots of support on our side, and I tell you that lately, beating the habs is more satisfying than beating the Leafs.

Realistically, with about a month to go, there won't be much change in the position of the bottom six or seven in the league overall.

So in terms of drafting, it's a crapshoot among the top seven picks. The assumption is Tavares and Hedman one/two...but you never know.

Who were picks two through seven last year?

From memory:

1. Stamkos
2. Doughty
3. Bogosian
4. Pietrangelo
5. Schenn
6. Filatov
7. Wilson, methinks.

This year's should be:
1. Tavares - As the Isles look to be picking first
2. Hedman
3. Duchene
4. Kane or MSP
5. Kane or MSP
6. Schenn
7. Cowen, although I'm not entirely sure of the extent of the damage of his injury. Otherwise, he'd debatably be in the top-4.

Let's see if I can do 2007 from memory :D

1. Kane
2. Van Riemsdyk
3. Turris
4. Hickey
5. Alzner
6. Gagner
7. Voracek

Wilson went 7th? I thought he went in the 10 range.

To be fair asq2 is a prospect nut. Can the average GMHockey member do what asq2 just did? I know I can't.

Yup. I think you're thinking of Hodgson.

IIRC, it then went:

8. Boedkker - gets a lot less press than he deserves
9. Bailey
10. Hodgson
11. Beach
12. Myers
13. Teubert
14. Boychuk
15. Karlsson

So 6 defencemen taken before Karlsson. Definitely a good draft for d-men.

Heh. Following the world of prospects is the only way I can sit through current Sens games Razz (although it's been much better under Clouston).

I'm pretty sure we have 2 second round picks and Toronto has at least one from the Antropov trade. confused

That NHL.com list predates the March 4 deadline I think...
