AROUND THE WEB: 

Silver Seven “Bishop, Andy and The Hamburglar” – Amelia L. 

Submission: Trevor Shackles

Amelia L gives her weekly 5 thoughts. Amongst them she discusses Ben Bishop and St. Louis, Ottawa’s newly minted third line, which AHL call-ups will impress with the Senators, and others.

I highly recommend this read every Friday.

Ottawa Citizen “Five Takes: What’s behind the Senators sudden success?” – Ken Warren

If you’re looking for the best news coverage of the Ottawa Senators, the Citizen’s “Senators Extra” is the go-to for myself.

This week, Ken Warren’s Saturday column on the Senators’ recent success examines why it has happened. The easy ones to point out would be the emergence of Andrew Hammond, but Warren also looks towards the Senators more balanced scoring, as well as confidence and composure. I suggest the read.

The Hockey Writers “Erik Karlsson is Back to Norris Form” – Callum Fraser

Submission: Zachary Prenner

Callum Fraser of The Hockey Writers has a nice piece on King Karl, discussing his return to Norris form. It really is crazy to see the effect that having a stable defense partner has had on the captain, who has 5 points in his last 4 games played.
