The Ottawa Senators update

As predicted on this blog in 2009 the Senators would have another losing season in the 2010-11 season and here they are at the bottom of the division, and only 2 points out of the NHL basement. Edmonton's young guns are a single point behind the Sens, the difference is that Edmonton is in a re-build, Ottawa is like lego blocks, they have a bunch of "L" shaped blocks that don't fit together and are wearing out. They are trading away what's left, have no one in the farm and some draft picks in a lean year. So who gets the boot at the end of the season, GM Brian Murray, Alex Kovalev, Milan Michalek, Pascal LeClaire and perhaps Chris Phillips by trade deadline. Rumour has it Brian Murray is trying to get some new sticks to go along with the bag of pucks he got for Mike Fisher.

Three more losing seasons, and a team for sale in two.
