Nikita Filatov has been placed on KHL waivers.

There's that top-six help we needed.

Yikes...

Columbus is starting Curtis McElhinney tonight.

For his sake, I hope his SV% is better than .750.

So Cowen is ready to play, but he's sitting out as a healthy scratch. Not sure why not give Weircioch a well-earned rest.

Hoping he'll have a good game in a showcase kind of scenario?

For whose sake? McElhinney?
Banned.

His SV% is .912 which is better than Anderson's .911

The legendary 25% rule.

Doesn't Mclenney have a ridiculous record vs Ottawa?

Doesn't every backup goalie?

I read somewhere that the sens have only 2 regulation wins in the last 13 games. We'd probably be singing a different tune had one of hoffman's shots not hit the post in the game against NYR.

On that note....feels like an overtime game tonight....again...

Seriously though, no, he is 1-3 versus us in his career.

Cowen is not making any friends :

Jared Cowen says he’s not interested in what Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray has to say.

Cowen, who received loud criticism from Murray Wednesday for his early-season play, says he’s not focussed on Murray’s comments.

“I don’t hear it because I don’t pay attention to that stuff because it doesn’t really matter,” said Cowen, who will be a healthy scratch for Thursday’s game against the Columbus Blue Jackets.

There's no losing when BJs are in town.

Interesting. It must be someone else I'm thinking of.

Cowen continues to demonstrate that he's an idiot everytime he opens his mouth.

Cowen needs to take a communications course. Or two. Or just keep his mouth shut.
