IS SILVER NUGGETZ NOW! Ottawa Senators news for the day

Yes, it is confirmed: Senators centre Mike Fisher has proposed to country star Carrie Underwood, and she accepted. Good for them, congratulations to both. Now, some buzzwords to increase the SEO: fisherwood, boyfriend, american idol, girlfriend, hot celebrities. (Sun)
The prediction panel makes a triumphant return for tonight's game against the Boston Bruins, and a pretty significant majority are picking Ottawa for the win. (Citizen)
No lineup changes for tonight, but Pascal Leclaire and Chris Neil are both expected to slot in for Wednesday's game, while Shean Donovan may be as little as a week away from a return. (Twitter)
It had been a while between goals for Erik Karlsson, but he's apparently looking for a bit more consistency. I'd be fine with that. (Citizen)

Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds head coach Denis Lambert gave Senators prospect goaltender Robin Lehner plenty of credit for his team's early-season success (or at least relative to their expectations going into the year). (Sault Star)
Apparently a swap of Jason Spezza for Dion Phaneuf would be a "dream deal" for both teams, according to Brian Costello's blog on The Hockey News website. As much as I'd love to see Phaneuf come in and stabilize the d-corps, Ottawa's future offensive picture are a lot bleaker than the defensive prospects in the system. Getting rid of Spezza, even if he is underperforming, would just compound those problems. (THN)

If you ignore his previous games, Karlsson is on pace for 47 goals after Saturday’s game!

I'll be in Ottawa later this week.

Are they good seats for $14? I’m hoping to get to a game or two next week…

Tough to find a "bad" seat at SBP

But you might be looking at the seats where you can’t drink alcohol in them. Make sure you check that out.

ya

you cant drink in the $14 seats…we grabbed some for $32 each. honestly whats the point of going to a hockey game if you cant buy $11 pints.

theres no bad seats, sightline wise in sbp. unlike the bell centre.

It is worth noting that although you can’t drink in your seats, you CAN drink in the lobby during intermission. And, if the building’s not full, you could always move down to other seats and drink in those ones. But $32 isn’t too bad, anyway.
