Grading Every Ottawa Senators Off-Season Move + Sens Re-Sign Leevi Meriläinen

1. GSG

2. Giroux to the flyers is official

3. That pro scout Alex Adams interviewed today on his podcast said Eklund is not very competitive and doesn’t have much defensive effort…

4. So I watched a video of all of Burakovsky’s goals when he had 20+ for Colorado. I thought he was more of a speed off the rush drive the net guy, but every goal was scored from already being in the zone and usually off a good wrist shot which seems to be his one decent attribute.

5. Was talking to the wife about maybe offering someone an offer sheet, then I see ​​Leo Carlsson signed a 5 year 18M AVV offer sheet with Philly, that is insane money.

6. G to the Flyers now. The team hasn't had this bad of an offseason since the rebuilding years under Melnyk. Gross

7. Fake tough guy David Pagnotta breaking more bad news today

8. We should Offer Sheet Cutter Gauthier?????????? what you thihk 14m

9. Ok this is how I feel about this….being a Canucks fan first and a Sens fan second, I feel so bad for everything that's happened to the Sens so far this off season, I feel bad and sad about the Brady thing, how he wanted to a trade hence forcing the Sens to do it, I'm just glad they at least got Eklund there as some sort of trade off. I feel bad that the Sens went totally off the board in the draft with the Hoen guy pick(but I am hoping that you guys are right that this is a take a swing at the bat pick and this guy ends up being a smart pick) and then I really really do not like the Ersson trade because although I did not watch much Flyers hockey but everytime I see highlights of them I always noticed that Ersson was always bad, seems to me he always let in easy goals so in my mind he was always a sub par goalie to me. So yeah all and all I really do not like how the off season is going so far for Ottawa…but I will say one thing though…Locked On Senators will always be my favorite Locked On to watch just because of you guys(I don't even watch Locked On Canucks lol, I watch other Canuck related channels for their news) so yeah….rock on boys and hope y'all have a great summer.

10. Tkachuk: B
    Eklund: B+
    Ersson: D
    Burakovsky: F
    Draft: B+
    Giroux: F

    Another very mid showing from Staios, i do not have much confidence in him as a GM. He almost wasted last season completely and has he improved this team. He brought in Zetterlund the let his coach stick him on the 4th line the first 20 games then "gave him a chance" by moving him back and forth every 5 games and wondering why he wasn't scoring so he sticks him back on the 4th again.

11. No Giroux? No Brady? And Ross thinks the Sens are better then Philly? I don't know man team is sliding down hill.

12. I was/am not sad to see Brady go.

13. Rittich signed 1 x $1 last night. Woulda rather a guy like him than Ersson. Doesn’t mean he would want to play in Ottawa. Just pointing out his contract as a comparable.

14. Merilainen will go to the AHL, obviously. Most NHL teams are set up with 2-3 goalies, I dont think he will get claimed on waivers.

15. Giroux gone to flyers, WTF best faceoff and true leader, we are going backwards…. Staois gets a zero on this one

16. Can you guys add the skip ahead feature for when you read ads so people with YouTube premium can skip through?

17. Brandon "B+" Piller

18. This offseason is a huge disappointment so far

19. 1. Any talk of this team being worse than before trading Brady requires a Brady that wants to be here…he wasn't. That's a fantasy player. As such, absolutely the team is better without the REAL Brady continuing to float on the ice and light fires in the dressing room. Enough of the fantasy world evaluations.
    2. The team is faster without Brady and G, and more skilled (except face-offs).
    3. The Cup was just won by a team that didn't play with jam. They played fast, skilled and cohesively. A pack of wolves can take down a grizzly.
    4. If meat is needed there is Mac and Blais to dress as required.
    5. I believe in Zetterlund as a top 6. This might be a GM/coach issue.
    6. Burakovsky – the guy is out of the NHL if he doesn't deliver this year. We'll see…
    Pura Vida in C.R., it's a wonderland, enjoy!

20. Hope the Sens are tossing offer sheets to the big names out there. Also, it's time to sign Batherson before the insanity hits fever pitch regarding AAV.

21. Is this the worst offseason in recent memory?

22. I am definitely excited about Jaxon Cover. One more year in London with the Hunters and then onto Uni. In a few years and some great development, he will be an amazing player. As to top, middle or bottom 6? Hard to say.

    PS. Have an amazing honeymoon Pillzy.

23. What about taking a stab at Huberdeau in Calgary?What about a cheap big player in Anthony Mantha?What about a cheap contract with Evander Kane?
    Is management going to find some moves to really help the team or what?

24. Staios can't tell you exactly what he's thinking but i know and it all makes sense

25. Adding Zetterlund’s best friend who isn’t good enough away from the puck. Pray for Steve.

26. Levi got crushed by having to play so much when he was struggling and Ullmark wasn’t there step in. Pilzy is right.
