Silver Nuggets: Goalies _____; Canada's worst team?

Here's a look at the Ottawa Senators headlines as we wait for the regular season to commence:

• "Senators goalies have yet to step up". Ever. (Citizen)
• I'm pretty sure Nick Foligno won his fight against Dale Weise. (HockeyFights)
• A little piece on David Hale and his unexpected spot on the Sens' blue line. His thoughts: "I'm not satisfied, but I'm definitely happy." (Citizen) (UPDATE: David Hale is already on waivers.)
  
• Jarkko Ruutu says he wants to stay in Ottawa. Not sure what else he'd say, though... (Sun)
• One year after the Dany Heatley trade. Spoiler: Ottawa still got hosed. (From the Rink)
• Ben from Sens Army is back posting now and again, and he thinks Bill Guerin is "the player the Sens have always needed". (Sens Army Blog)

"TSN will say that a Canadian team is, in fact, the odds-on favorite to win it all, before conceding that, OK, maybe half of the other 24 teams in the league have a chance of being better than the worst Canadian squad (Ottawa). Then Sportsline or somebody will predict the Wild will win the President's Trophy because they haven't seen a hockey game in, like, six years."

• Nichols has something to say about Jared Cowen's demotion back to the WHL. (The 6th Sens)
• The New York Islanders released Dean McAmmond from his professional tryout contract. Big mistake, Isles. Big mistake. (Islanders)
