, a team that finished dead last in the NHL in 2018-19 and fired head coach Guy Boucher before it was over. Despite their finish, Ottawa only drafted 19th overall in Round 1 because it surrendered its own pick to secure forward Brady Tkachuk in the 2018 draft.
I think the other thing we’ve done, while we’ve created opportunity for young players, at the same time we’ve brought in veterans, guys we feel are going to help these young players grow and develop. And we made some trades that will help us short term but also in the long term — the trade we made with Toronto in getting Nikita Zaitsev and Connor Brown , as well as the trade for Artem Anisimov, who we feel will play really well in our system.
SN: As a competitive hockey guy, how much does it pain you to have an actual payroll in the neighbourhood of $47.5 million , when you have to compete against payrolls as high as $80 million-plus?First and foremost, the most important thing to us is the Ottawa Senators and making sure our team continues to improve and get better. I think you’d agree with me, spending to the cap right now would do us no good.

Senators HockeyScanner So Dorion states ...'But we want to tell our fans we know the importance of keeping our young core here for the long term' ... Really what about Duchene, Stone and Dzingal, Dorion wasn't able to resign any one of them and then fires to Coach to take the blame away from him.

Canada moving on after star players spurn national team again - Sportsnet.caWith many big names electing not to represent Canada at the FIBA World Cup, the question is worth asking again. Why can’t Canada get its so-called 'golden generation' basketball players to play for the national team? loung_s Because there are only a handful of NBA players from Canada. All the big stars for the U.S. pulled out but the majority of the league is from there so it doesn't look as bad. Reason for both Countries is the tournament is just to close to training camp. loung_s Too bad more of them are not making the commitment to represent their country! loung_s

Blame for World Cup no-shows falls on FIBA, not Canada Basketball - Sportsnet.caMuch has been said about the number of homegrown stars opting for rest instead of a Canada Basketball jersey — but this time around, the blame falls not on the players but on the organizers who put them in an unenviable position. (via donnovanbennett) donnovanbennett FIBA did this to bring some parity because the US kept destroying the rest of the world since 2008. Sorry but you cannot blame Canadian fans for criticizing those players not wanting to play when you have most international players and Kyle Lowry playing. donnovanbennett I would appreciate if they didn’t pull out on the eve. tell us it’s FIBA’s fault It looks selfish/ reflects poorly on them, imo. If they cared enough they would speak up in 1 voice. Looks like they don’t care about Canada, whether that’s true or not. Perception shapes reality donnovanbennett Thank you! Hearing how unpatriotic these players were made no sense and lacked analytical depth. This goes for your colleagues at Sportsnet as much as the casual fan making comparisons to NHL players. There are undertones in these arguments that remind me the us vs them mentality
