Silver Nuggets: Schubert on Re-entry Waivers, Mike Fisher Not Skating at Practice

Here's another collection of Ottawa Senators related headlines from around the world wide web:

• Update: Everyone (or at least the Globe & Mail) is talking about how Daniel Alfredsson is the longest-serving captain in the NHL. You may recall roughly two and a half months ago, when I (Peter) announced it with a heroic list of his top-ten moments. Just sayin'.
• Update: Apparently, Ilya Zubov didn't ask for a trade, but was told by the Senators that he might get traded. This is his agent's story, at least. Something must have been lost in translation the first time around. (Sun)
• Christoph Schubert was placed on re-entry waivers, where another team can pick him up for half his salary (with Ottawa paying the other half). So the question is... who wants to go halfsies on a Schubie? (Twitter)
• According to Brent Wallace of TSN, Mike Fisher was not skating at practice today. Fisher apparently just needed some rest for some "bumps and bruises," and it's nothing serious. (Twitter)
• Jesse Winchester took the ice for the first time since his injury. He's still not expected back for a couple of weeks. (Twitter)
• Darren Dreger puts Erik Karlsson as #9 on his list of the top ten impact rookies this season (TSN)
• Despite coach Cory Clouston stating that Pascal Leclaire is expected to start 60 games, Brian Elliott doesn't see himself as Leclaire's backup, but as his partner.  You know, the type of partner who plays one-third of the amount of games that Leclaire plays. (Senators)

• The Ottawa Citizen pumped out its Senators supplement today, meaning a whole host of Citizen links after the jump....

• Position by position look at Sens.
• Interview with Bryan Murray, where he admits that though the goal is always a Stanley Cup, there are also more modest goals for the Sens: "we have to get back to playing at a kind of level where we get respect in this town, and we have to show the fans as a team that we really compete every night and that we really care about playing here. To me, that would be some of the success that we need."
