Oshawa Rookie Tournament, Game 2: Ottawa Senators v. Chicago Blackhawks

After a good start with a 4-0 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins rookies on Saturday, the Ottawa Senators rookies are back at it Sunday afternoon with a game against their peers from the Chicago Blackhawks.
The Hawks rookie squad, who lost their tournament opener 4-2 to the Toronto Maple Leafs rookies, features the likes of Mark McNeill, Philip Danault, Dylan Olsen, and Brandon Saad. We'll see how they stack up against Ottawa's best prospects.
The Sens' win over Pittsburgh came in large part thanks to Robin Lehner, who estimated he made about 25-30 saves (shots weren't tracked in the game), and Corey Cowick, who scored two goals. Derek Grant also had a goal and an assist, while Andre Petersson scored on what was supposedly a pretty sick move.
It's more hockey, folks. Just enjoy it!

If Sensfan meant that Mika has looked much better in the past, then it would be the bad way.

The Blackhawks farm system is a lot stronger than Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh lost a lot picks
Getting a different winger every year for crosby
I liked Noesen on that last shift
Very physical

Ha, I just realised I accidentally posted this in the wrong thread
But apparently magic number seven made a nice defensive play, (5-10 minutes ago)

Very impressed
With Cowick’s compete level!
3-2 Hawks with 6 seconds left

I can see why are goalie didn't get drafted
He cannot control rebounds
Saad looks really good out there for the Hawks.
Zibanejad looks fantastic, too. Petersson also really impressing me.
Co-manager, Silver Seven
yeah
big time… i wish that.. ya know, he would slow down just for a little while :)
Brandon Saad looks pretty good
Just wish he wasn’t doing it today

From @coreypronman
Andre Petterson, Mika Zibanejad, David Rundblad, Stephane Da Costa and Shane Prince on the ice together isn’t fair.

Wow!
Natural hat trick in a single period!

It would be awesome if all three Calder finalists are Sens

It is only rookies, but definitely making an early case for 2nd line spot
From 1st two games anyway.

Peter Regin still plays in the NHL?
by Alexander Calloway on Sep 11, 2011 3:11 PM EDT up reply actions
3rd line or wing
Or he could keep the 2nd line spot, I don’t see him being sent to minors though.

Our centre depth is frightening
Spezza
and then
Regin, Winchester, Konopka, Greening, Da Costa, Z. Smith, Zibanejad

Some of those could be moved to make up for winger depth though

I think he'd tear something else before it was over.

Robin Lehner, 0.00 GAA
Machovsky, 6.00 GAA
I’d offer some save percentages, but apparently they don’t keep track of the shots in 2011at this tournament.

More from @coreypronman
Sole negative note on OTT prospects thus far, Rundblad’s puck-moving skills are elite, but still a bit of work in progress in his own end.
by Alexander Calloway on Sep 11, 2011 3:25 PM EDT reply actions
So he's Marc-Andre Bergeron?
Zibanesnake - Silver Seven - The Classic Blog
by Ryan Classic on Sep 11, 2011 3:27 PM EDT up reply actions
He’s going to take some time to adjust to the smaller offensive zone.

Jared Cowen showed a lot of surprising offensive flashes today. The straight line skating, hands and passing ability were all solid.
by Alexander Calloway on Sep 11, 2011 4:09 PM EDT reply actions
This doesn't surprise me
When Darren and I saw him with Spokane this season, he pretty much dominated every facet of the game, offence and defence.

It's why I think Cowen will start in Ottawa
While Rundblad will spend the better part of the first half of the season in Binghamton. I think Rundblad will play 7-8 game in Ottawa, then be assigned to Bingo for 20-25, then—maybe, if he does well—come back to Ottawa.
With Cowen, it’s easier to keep him in Ottawa. He won’t be expected to play powerplay or offensive minutes, and it won’t be a disservice to him to play him on the bottom pairing.

While I think Rundblad should play in Ottawa all year
I am starting to think the club leans more towards Cowen too. Listening to Murray, he says Cowen is NHL ready, but for Rundblad, Murray usually says he is almost ready.
An Ottawa Senators supporter in Toronto, Ontario. I am cool like that.
Cowen brings a different skill set.
We have three PMDs (Gonch, Kuba and Karlsson). Until one of those three goes, I don’t see how Rundblad fits in since he’d likely just get, 5/6 minutes, and second PP time (if that).
I would do:
1st pairing – Gonchar – Karlsson
2nd pairing – Kuba – Rundblad
3rd pairing – Phillips – Lee
I would also not be too scared of trying Rundblad/Cowen together as an NHL pairing and see how they cope.

I agree with the 1st and 3rd pairings.
With Carkner as the alternate for if we need toughness in the lineup. The second is fine, if Kuba plays to his potential. We just need more guys up front to score if we go with that – we’ll be a high scoring team, but offset with giving up a lot of goals.
I guess I haven't seen either of them play
Except the grainy stream today, although I thought Rundblad looked pretty good today. I just feel Rundblad has more experience playing against professionals instead of kids.
But, I think just from the quotes, that Cowen might start up in Ottawa first.

Anyway Seahawks and Panthers next
See you guys on Tuesday, maybe.

hooray!!!
don’t suppose there will be highlights floating around somewhere? senstv perhaps? (later obviously)
Coming out party
Just saw the game on tape. Da Costa, Z’jad and Petersson… and REALLY sucky goaltending.
I still really like Stone and Cowick. It is amazing what awful goaltending does to a game.
Defensively not much to be proud of… but a coming out party for Da Costa and Z’jad.
