I'm not worried. The substantial losses quote is just exaggeration.
Anyways, they have a 50 million budget and are icing a great team. I'll take it any day of the week. No use spending to the cap.

I'm not worried either, but might be in 2015-16 like I mentioned earlier when the new core all become UFA at the same time.
Maybe they bolt like Alfie?
Status quo for me until that time when I reserve the right to go off the rails.
Sens signed RFA forward Dave Dziurzynski to 1 year, 2 way deal worth $640,000.
Good kid who learned a bad lesson last season.

Good link here about potential line matching.

The Sens have one too many forwards in my opinion, but that is because I think Mark Stone starts on either the 1st on 2nd line RW. Yup, 1st or 2nd. They like him with Spezza a lot - same hockey IQ.
Murray doesn't let his players get in front of the arbitrator, so watch what happens with Condra.
Zack Smith could be trade bait as well as he regressed a bit last season but still plays a game that is intriguing to all teams I would think.
Something has to give I think. Can't see Condra or Smith in the press box on rotation with Kassian game in and game out. Hmmmm....
Sens have re-signed RFA Eric Condra to a two year deal.
1.2 million followed by 1.3
He is key to the Ottawa PK, well the goalies were last season, but he is the forward who is and will be leaned upon. Great signing.

Yup, I think when they say he is ready, he jumps right right in. They love him with Spezza.
Big gamble for me to say he is ready now, but it's just my gut.
He's a bit behind in his off season training because he is still feeling the effects of the high ankle sprain he got in the Pittaburgh series. Didn't skate with the group in Development Camp very much.
