Silver Nuggets: Is Alfredsson rushing back?
First off, it's Remembrance Day: Lest we forget. Ottawa Senators captain Daniel Alfredsson has a legendary ability to return from injuries in remarkably short times. At the top of my mind is when Alfie broke his jaw in 2009 and missed just one game, returning to the lineup in spite of the fact that...
Lehner to start tonight, Butler in for Alfredsson
The Ottawa Senators have made quite a few lineup changes for tonight's game against the Toronto Maple Leafs. In a surprise move (at least it was a surprise to me), Robin Lehner will be starting in nets for the Sens after Craig Anderson played last night. Cory Clouston wasn't shy to play the same...
Silver Nuggets: Spezza returns, Michalek out for a "few games"
The Ottawa Senators are on Hockey Night in Canada (regionally) tonight as they take on the Boston Bruins. Some pretty good headlines leading up to puck drop: Just as Jason Spezza is ready to return to the lineup, Milan Michalek is out for about a week with tendonitis in his recently-surgeried...
Injury problems start early as Kuba goes down on day one
One day into training camp. One day. And already, Filip Kuba is already out of the Ottawa Senators' lineup with a leg injury--feared to be a broken ankle, according to the Ottawa Sun, which could keep Kuba out of the lineup for up to two months (UPDATE: The Citizen reports it's a broken leg, and...
Senators downed 5-2 by Lightning in ugly affair
Even just looking at the score, anyone can see for themselves that the Ottawa Senators 5-2 loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday was ugly. Tampa has not looked like a good team this year, and this game was no different--except they came out with the win because the Senators looked even worse...
Silver Nuggets: Volchenkov out three weeks, Elliott starts again
Not too many headlines today, because I'm a bit short on time: We already know Anton Volchenkov is out for tonight's game with an elbow injury, but it looks like he could be out more than three weeks. Ouch. (National Post) Goalie Pascal Leclaire won't play tonight because of the flu, so Brian...
Senators almost don't beat Panthers, but still win 4-3
The Ottawa Senators barely squeaked by the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night, coming away with a 4-3 victory, a disturbingly close game against a team Ottawa was expected to defeat handily. The win was, by and large, thanks to big games from big players, such as Daniel Alfredsson, Mike Fisher,...
Silver Nuggets: The Chorske Buddha, Sens lucky injury-wise, and Operation Spoiler-iffic
Everyone should remember the Buddha. It was Tom Chorske's good luck charm when he was a part of the first Ottawa Senators team to make the post-season. Five For Smiting is suggesting that after a convincing 4-2 victory over the Sabres maybe we should take it down off Chorske's shelf, dust it off...
Win: Sens 4, Pens 3 (SO)
I didn't think the Ottawa Senators were as bad as they looked under Craig Hartsburg earlier in the season. An almost-comeback when down 4-1 against the Boston Bruins on Thursday was pretty cool. Tonight's full comeback after going down 3-1 to the Pittsburgh Penguins was even better, as the Sens...
