All Things Binghamton Senators!

Huh, I find that surprising after he busted his arse at Merrimack. I would imagine he's learned his lesson if that's the case though.

Got a nice little signing bonus and NHL money... he's 22. That's more natural than turning it up a notch.

Fair enough.

Yah, not a big deal, that's what the minors are for... getting guys on the right track and the fact his coach is the first one there in the mornings working out is also a push.

Da Costa will be an NHLer... good 2nd liner, at worst 3rd liner who can work the PP with his vision and skills. Needs time though.

Never hurts to have a guy who can play 3rd line to perfection and slip into the second line role seamlessly should the need arise.

Hey! We had a guy like that...what was his name.......oh yeah, Mike Fisher! BWAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA.

Nice, I got the stream to work just as Silfverberg made is 2-0.

Huge win for Bingo. 3-1. Bishop in net. Silf with a couple of points, same with Benoit. Wiercioch scores.

Geez, Bobby Butler scored 4 goals and added an assist on Wednesday.

18 points in 22 games now for Silf.

The SIlf has figured it out and is actually the most consistent player down there.

DaCosta is a far cry from Fisher -- lots more creativity, but he doesn't have Fisher's size or ability to hit. Of course Fisher never had DaCosta's creativity. In the end, it comes down to money. Fisher would have been a good 3rd line center or 2nd line winger. At $4.2M/year, though, I would prefer a center who can make a play to his wingers once in a while.

Imagine what would have happened if Fisher was still here when Turris came in? Put Fisher on Spezza's wing in place of Greening and how many points to you think he gets? Good thing we traded him when we did or he'd be asking for $6M after scoring 35 riding shotgun with the SpezDisenser.

And our top prospect, it seems:

TSN has ranked the best NHL affiliated prospects. Silfverberg is Ottawa's best at 16. Zibanejad is 23. Edmonton's Justin Schulz is #1.

What happened to Lehner?

Nobody watches Binghamton.

Sad, but somewhat true.

No Markstrom or Lehner on that list, but the younger Subban is on there. I think a four-year-old drew names out of a hat to make up that list.
