It was bad enough around here with the Hamonic situation, cannot imagine the one Ottawa may put themselves into.

Outside of a horrendous GM and worse Owner, I think the Senators are being forced down the “rebuild” path at a good time.
If they had a good GM and a good Owner, I’d be excited for that fan base. Think of what they could do with a “tear down”.
Mark Stone
Matt Duchene
Erik Karlsson
Jean Gabriel Pageau

Selling those guys this summer/at the deadline should get them a huge bounty. Mike Hoffman should have been dealt at the trade deadline of this past season as well, even if it were for a reduced price (...you have to think they could have got something better than the nothing they got a few days ago).
...but, they have the owner they have, and the GM that has to listen to that owner...so yeah, their fans are boned.
