Silver Seven “Is Ottawa Capable of Handling Leads? ” – Ary M
Submission: Zachary Prenner
If you like your stats fancy, then Ary M at Silver Seven Sens has you covered. With a little help, he dissects the Senators defence core and asks the question: Are the Senators defensemen capable of handling leads?
I think we have some talent on our blueline, but soo many of the players on our team are very young – espescially the defence. As we saw against Boston, we can get a little jittery at times. It’s not an easy fix, but I think GMBM would do well to search for another solid veteran d-man who’s best years aren’t already behind him ( a-la Marc Methot).

Logan analyzes what makes an elite center in the NHL, listing off the key skills from greats like Jonathan Toews, Anze Kopitar and more. The article puts into perspective just how amazing some of the NHL elite’s really are, especially when compared to their counterparts.
