I don't understand how he's back in the 'Q'...if he was trying out for the Bsens, then doesn't that mean he's graduated from junior hockey?

He's going back as an over-age player. He was able to try out for the AHL because he is 20 but he is also able to play one more year in the CHL. A team is only allowed a certain number of over age players in the CHL, either 2 or 3.

Is Pageau still eligible?

Yes, but he has shown he deserves to play in the AHL.

Prince is also eligible to be sent back but he hasn't had a chance to show what he can do yet.

I agree that Pageau deserves to turn pro but that doesn't always mean much.

I'd say it does. Nobody who actually deserves to turn pro gets sent back to play against 16 year olds. They make it work.

Yeah, they'll make room for him. He's got all the tools except size,he just needs to get some pro experience.

So from what we know/hear:

Prince won't be ready for Saturday, Da Costa is building strength, so I'm not sure what that means, Jessiman is apparently ready, Wiercioch is close, but not probably for Saturday.

Probable lineup:

Zibanejad - Pageau - Silfverberg
Hoffman - Cannone - Petersson
Schneider - Grant - Stone
Dziurzynski - Hamilton - Jessiman
Cowick

Cowen - Benoit
Eckford - Borowiecki
Claesson/Blood - Gryba

Lehner
Lawson

I wonder what Lehner thinks of that one? And Lawson? Does he get sent to Elmira?

8 days before I hit the road to Bingo. Lehner had better be playing one of those games...

Wow, they have a chance to be a threat in the post-season, let alone being good in the regular season.

Good they got Bishop playing, not a lot of other teams have their goaltenders working. Could be the end of Anderson as well, not sure I would go with a guy who has been off for a year or two over Lehner and Bishop.

I think will be given every opportunity to remain the #1 for at least one more season. The man has earned that.

Agreed.

Maybe... might have to trade him with Lehner and Bishop looking for 1 way deals after this season. Don't think Anderson will play another game for the Sens if the lockout goes the whole year. Can't see the logic behind it and saying "he's earned it" is just lip service.

Or maybe Bishop rips it and is traded for a top liner with one of Zibanejad/Silfverberg
