I like what GSA did for the HAbs,
so i wanted to start a threads for other teams.
What do you guys see for the Sens next year.
I'm a fan of Spreading the talent out some, so I'd like to see it like this.

Neil - Spezza - Alfedsson
Eaves - Savard(???) - Heatley
Laraque* - Vermette - Schacfer
Kelley - Fisher - McGratton
(Hamel / Foligno / )

Redden - Phillips
Pronger* - Meszaros
Pothier - Volchenkov
(Schubert / Lyamin)

Hasek/ Hopefully it will be a UFA
Emery

* Heard of a trade that will send Havlat and another player most likey Smolinski, or Eaves, and draft pick to Emdonton for Pronger and LAraque

I would also like to see ottawa pick up a good center mabye Savard, mabye some one else.

wow, Not_Doody, you an Ottawa Fan? I thought I was alone around here!

Keep the Top line together (Heatley, Spezza, Alfie) but if you have to move one of them move Alfie. Heatley and Spezza have a spark as we have seen last season.

Fisher should centre the 2nd or 3rd line after his breakout season last year. I also think Vermette might be on the trading block right now. I know he wants to go to Montreal very badly and he will probally be there in a year or 2. Maybe we could get Higgins for him and a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Smolinski will probally be let go or traded this offseason. Also Pothier is a UFA and Im pretty sure Ottawa won't want to bring him back to play in the nations capital.

Ottawa is 50/50 on keeping Hasek in Ottawa for another season, but I think they should. If they didn't have any plans on keeping him I think we might of heard something by now.

Whatever Happens... Ottawa needs to be taking HASH* into all their games and intimidate the opponets and hope to encarve the Ottawa Senators name on the Stanley Cup yet again!

Nice lineup. Grit and talent. The best third line in the league. Some question between the pipes. Overall one of the best formation in the league.

(Not_Doody, Nick Foligno won't be in the NHL before 2 or 3 years. Moreover, no team would be crazy enough to put their 18 or 19 years old talent as the 13th or 14th forwards or 7th defenseman. These young man need to develop by playing a lot)

Lets GO SABRES we beat you once and will do it again.

ottawa has no leadership to rally around when they face adversity, shuch as the sabres series

#1: This is the sens team for next year... not the sabres

#2: Sens need to get down to work on acquiring some more forwards. As of right now the Sens have 10 forwards... if you include the RFA's and Schubert. Some players we might be able to try and get are:
Peca
McEachern (nice to have him back if we can make a deal)
Doan (acquire via trade for picks or something)
Nagy( also acquired in phoenix trade)
Recchi

Just some ideas... Id be happy if we get 1 of them... super happy if we get two.

ottawa has ways to go to get to the stanley cup but if they got there they would lose lol. Buffalo would beat them again. GO SABRES!

Buffalo is going to be a great contender next year with all of their young players and then ottawa losing a couple key players is gonna have a tough time.
