It's a game day, but before we get going with that, let's revisit what's happened these last couple days. Here's what's going on, to start your Thursday:The PWHL schedule has been released. The Ottawa Charge get their season underway on Saturday, November 30 in Montreal. Their first home game is  Tuesday, December 3 against Toronto.Linus Ullmark skated on Wednesday, and "may" be ready to play tonight. I can see the value in not rushing the recen…

Links, News, and Notes: PWHL Schedule, Ullmark Uncertain

There's nothing like the first few games of a new season to get the Hot Takes going. We've had the better part of six months to formulate some strong opinions and, like many of you, I'm not going to let the fact that the Ottawa Senators have played less than 4% of their schedule stop me from making bold declarations. So, three games into the year, what can I absolutely, definitely, 100% say for sure about the Sens that I promise I won't take bac…

Some Way Too Early Observations about the Ottawa Senators

The season started last night, and I have five thoughts. A couple residual ones from before last night's game, but still, five real-hockey-related thoughts.1. Unconvince CarterCarter Yakemchuk essentially did what he had to do to earn a spot in the opening night roster, leading the team in points during the preseason with 7 points (2 goals, 5 assists) in four games, but he still didn’t quite convince management, getting sent back to the Calgary …

Five Thoughts for Friday: We Have Liftoff

On the eve of the Ottawa Senators kicking off their 2024-25 season, expectations are, once again, starting to run wild around these parts. For the third year in a row, Sens fans are gearing up for the team to end its painful play-off drought. Although the central cast of characters has not much changed (Tim Stützle, Brady Tkachuk, Jake Sanderson, Claude Giroux, and Thomas Chabot have all been the leading lights for each of the last three seasons…

The Ottawa Senators Play it Safe

Rosters get set today, and every fan is setting their expectations for the year. Over at Sportsnet, Justin Bourne does a quick trip through the league with his expectations for each team. I think he gets Ottawa pretty much right, but I'm not sure I like that he used a golf metaphor to do itWe're still waiting on a schedule from the PWHL, but we did get dates for the pre-season with the announcement of pre-season mini camps. The camps will take p…

Monday LNN: Expectations, Schedules, Cuts and More

Did the Boston Bruins gift us Linus Ullmark too soon? Their gamble on securing their star goaltender Jeremy Swayman is turning out to have been a risky one.  With just seven days until the season opener, negotiations between Swayman and the team remain at an impasse. Bruins GM Cam Neely may have complicated matters further by going public with a supposed offer that Swayman’s agent quickly disputed, leaving a significant gap between both parties.…

I am Begging the NHL to Take Player Safety Seriously For Once

Some Monday links, news, and notes from around the NHL in the final week of the preseason:On Thursday night, Drew Doughty suffered a fractured ankle and is month-to-month. It looked pretty bad at first glance, so it's unsurprising to see the longer timeline.Similarly, Patrik Laine was also seriously injured on Friday night, and this one looked even worse. Cedric Pare of the Toronto Maple Leafs stuck out his knee at the last second, which clipped…
