Ottawa seems to have taken a step back this year when a lot of people were calling for a break out.

Ottawa seems to have taken a step back this year when a lot of people were calling for a break out. Still too young. Guys like Stutzle are still a couple of years away it seems like. There are no real impact vets outside of the guys they've developed. Great core for the future but without an injection of proven talent I think the team is still at least 2 years away from scaring anyone.

The hard part in the NHL with a young team is to keep everybody pulling in the same direction, Edmonton had some issues and a few guys didn't develop, they ended up trading Hall, Yakupov flopped and they traded away Petry before his prime.

Maybe the GM's words stirred them because after that they've won the last 2 games, be interesting to see if Murray is better when he gets back to Ottawa; because the GM did say he needed to be better but not to single him out said they all needed to be better including the GM and coaching staff.

Wat a garbage play by Dell, deserves minimum 5 games for injuring Batherson.

LOL - perhaps in lieu of a suspension, the punishment could be that Dell is required to start each game for the Sabres until Batherson returns ...

Did he mean to do it other than to knock him off stride? Kind of dangerous looking outcome.

When u have goalie who plays sparingly. Whom wouldnt be in the next 3 games isnt it actually a 0 game suspension? So now he has to sit upstairs that's all.
Like a baseball starting pitcher being suspended for his non-starts.

Three games Very cheap gutless play I saw yesterday that apparently Dell has a history of this kind of stuff - at least two other incidents, one involving Mark Stone, forget who the other was. Considering he has a relatively light workload, that is a lot of similar plays to make any attempt to brush it off as an accident.
