Silver Nuggets: Who leaves when Volchenkov returns?

Here are your Senators stories for today:

  • Another Ottawa Senators Blog asks a pertinent question: with Anton Volchenkov scheduled to return this weekend, which defenseman comes out of the lineup? It's likely down to Alex Picard or Brian Lee, with Chris Campoli being a slight possibility as well. What's your take? (AOSB)
  • Don Brennan suggests that after Spezza scored a goal wearing the 'A' on his jersey, maybe the Senators should have given it to him a few weeks ago. Except for the fact that Mike Fisher, who normally wears the 'A', has also seen some pretty great success wearing it. (Slam)
  • Brian Elliott was named FanHouse's plus player of last night. (Fanhouse)
  • A nice article on prospect Corey Cowick's current injury woes, and his ongoing rehabilitation. (Centretown)
  • Last night was the third sell-out crowd of the season. Must be the Vermette factor. (Slam)
  • Spezza's goal last night should stop reporters from asking him about his slump... as long as he keeps scoring. (Citizen)
