Ottawa Senators (present and past) TIDBITS & QUICK HITS!

I think carrying 13 forwards is a lot more common than carrying a 3rd goaltender. Not sure how you can say "doesn't make a difference either way".

I was talking about the cap floor. It makes no difference in that sense. They will send Sogaard down after tonight or the weekend

Sign Tkachuk for 6 years. You have a six year window to win without giving up too much of your future. Probably the best offer Buffalo gets.

On TSN 1200 today they were talking about the rumour of Eichel going to the Rangers and how it'd have to be Kakko or Zibanejad in a package for the return.

I wouldn't be surprised if they ended up holding on to Eichel until he's cleared to play. They would need take back over $6.3M in salary just to get to the floor(that's $2.752 more than Kakko and nearly $1M more than Zibanejad). If they hang on to him his salary is covered by insurance and they remain cap compliant, and are well on their way to get Shane Wright. When Eichel is healthy the cap floor would be a much smaller issue and there should be a lot more interest in Eichel as an early deadline acquisition.

Connor brown looking more like alfie every day
