General Hockey Talk - Injuries, signings, factoids + other news from around the league

It's going to take Ottawa running the table in October AND getting Kuba back. Throw in some offense from Kovalev and the Sens might just barely crack top 10. I just don't get it but it's power rankings so it shouldn't get me this worked up but it does.

Ottawa fan's care too much about what others think, lol. Toronto was ranked ahead of The Sens and slotted as a playoff team before the season started... really, who cares?

Honestly, though, we lost two games to teams struggling through injuries to main players. We behaved like a .500 team and dropped from 10 to 12. I think that's fair, no?

Pretty much. The same way people are watching Heatley so closely in Ottawa, who gives a crap about that lump of arse. I'm just happy we got Michalek back. I've come to not even go to TSN anymore, instead getting my info from here and the stats from NHL.com.

TSN...pfft, just show the games and shut up. Sportsnet is a joke. NHL on the Fly is good, but literally, they have nothing to say that we here don't already know. End of story.

I think it's stupid to (re)evalutate a team every week.

They should do those things once a month or more.

But I guess Scott Cullen is bored and needs a job to do.

Except I really, really like Shannon. I would keep that guy through the thick and thin. Picard? Well...that's a different story.

Well you dont have to deal Shannon, he just shouldnt be in a healthy lineup.
