Any intel on the exchange between Kadri and Weegar after the MIN game? Someone was annoyed.

I dont know, it was so brief, it kind of looked like a..."Yeah man!" kind of exchange.

Everyone being pumped after the game. But then again, I'm grasping at straws like everyone else, I'm just grasping at different ones.

But based on what we've seen of that locker-room I'm thinking that minor on-ice exchange was much ado about nothing.

No, that is not why. Dustin Wolf is why

Long live the oligarch's I guess. Prime is pretty dang good

How many years can you be paying top dollar for your young players before you try and move forward? When you pay a guy after 3 years for 6-8 years the clock is ticking so once the Sens had paid many of their youngsters.

Ottawa targeted 2 youngish players with team control for more than the year they acquired them. Those moves make sense when a team wants to exit the rebuild and start to compete.

Hamonic is not the best example because the Flames grossly overpaid for an overrated Dman. If Hamonic was a top pairing guy that deal is vastly different. He was a disaster the year before the trade yet somehow was worth what Treliving paid.

Prime broadcast was good but it's a real kick in the nuts having to pay for two subscriptions just to get access to all Flames games.

We can bitch about subscriptions forever.

I mean...for Sports I have:

- DAZN
- FuboTV
- Sportsnet

And I had, but canceled TSN. I only picked it up for International Soccer.

But I buy a lot of my office supplies on Amazon Prime anyways, so I'm kind of okay with this being a 'kicker.'

Being in a rural community where things are either not available or too much Amazon Prime is worth it for me.

Almost every game he has played he has looked slow getting up/laboring at times.

I for one was shocked to hear his name the other night. I thought he dropped out of the league after the covid hijinks he pulled during the bubble years.

1 assist in 19 games and a -8. Oof, probably his last year in the league.

The issue is that they acquired guys like they were nearing the end of their window not just opening up. If a team is going trade a 7th overall, 11th overall, and three seconds on players they should at least be locked down on term or would be willing to sign an extension. Dorion was a bad manager and the Senators struggles are reflective of that.

Not surprised to see Hanley in the lineup again. I thought he looked solid on Saturday.

He’s also on the top pair tonight. Yikes.

Different reason for me, 2 young kids so Prime is convenient for us, i really paid or Prime because of the delivery ( not the steaming) so now its nice to see some more value out of it.. although i guess if it wasn't on prime.. it would still be on cable which i have also lol

If someone had told me this at the beginning of the season I'd have laughed in their face.

Now...of course, there is still plenty of time to fall flat on our faces, but...we bought the ticket now we have to take the ride.

It’s so cliche but hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard. I was admittedly disappointed when they went with Huska over Love. Conny looking like a genius, again.

You don’t shop on Amazon with your Prime subscription?

[hwy19man]

Viewers in the USA will get this game on Centre Ice with the Amazon feed.


Viewers in Canada must subscribe to Prime to watch this game. The Senators french regional network (RDS and RDS2) is not showing this game. The radio feeds are the only other way.

The countdown show is pretty awesome too, watching warmups
