TSN Director of Scouting Craig Button joins SC with Jay Onrait to discuss how much better the Senators are than last year’s team, if Mark Scheifele and Connor Hellebuyck will still be with the Jets after the trade deadline, and his confidence level that Jonathan Huberdeau will have a bounce-back season.

Nope
Lol no
Sens win a 2nd round series before Leafs do.
Yea…because pre-season is a very good indicator of how a team is going to perform. You'd think a guy that's been covering hockey for as long as Craig Button has would understand that NHL vets that are guaranteed a spot aren't trying in the pre-season, they're just waiting until the games matter. The only people that are actually playing are the people on PTO and the prospects. When Ottawa beats Toronto in games that matter, then I'll start to worry.
Craig button, you do know it preseason right?
Well if Button says that with his record of predictions it’s a guarantee they miss out 🤔🙄🤪😊Penguins 🐧 got a much better chance in making it this time imho!
I cannot stand Button, I hope to one day return to this show.
stutzle dives alot, not a fan of that. i like buffalo over senators.
Im a huge Leaf fan but Ottawa looks really good this year, I like it alot battle of Ontario is back, very exciting stuff.
Toronto played each of the first two preseason games with star players out, rosters half filled with prospects and without their starting goalie.
This level of early hype is almost maple leafs fan level jumping the gun. Calm down.
Yes let’s make bold predictions after two pre-season games without full lineups.
TSN and the affirmative action talent once again. Ever hear of volume settings?
Here's an idea f*ckwads, hire people that can actually do the damn job and don't worry about ticking diversity boxes.
The Sens look very good and the battle of Ontario is on, however one can also say that the Sens should be worried as well.
TSN audio editor: every single video needs about +4-6 db. Thanks.
They won preseason games 😂
It's 2 preseason games lol
The Leafs shouldn't be worried 😂, Ottawa will be better this year for sure… and toronto will probably lose a game or two to them..great.. but this is only the narrative because Ottawa beat a Toronto team that was mostly playing prospects and a Matthews, Bertuzzi and Marner who were all out of sync, and not really giving a shit. At the end of the day Toronto is still the better team.
Leafs are not physical enough to win the Stanley Cup! Also their defense sucks!
And the Sens superstars being on team friendly deals helps a whole lot
Their coaching won’t be good enough Ottawa
Remember all the hype coming into last year? Yeah, this team feels the same to me.
Sens future looks bright, management is almost certain to ruin it sadly.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think he's right
