Re: Ottawa Senators
Any idea why Prince was sent down after 2 games? I didn't get to see the first game but he got a point, and only played 8mins in the 2nd game? Was he that bad? Seems almost rude to send him down after that short of a stay imo.. especially concerning since he's already asked for a trade in the past which has seems to have been overlooked.

Also to comment on the Lehner playoff run.. there's no way I'd feel comfortable with Lehner in the net for a playoff run right now.. there's been waaay too many soft goals. Love Lehner's personality and I think he's got all the skills to be an elite goalie in a few years but he's looked very shaky up until the point of his injury. He might be one of those guys who could raise it to another level for playoffs tho so you never know..but to say the Sens have had amazing goaltending this season doesn't seem accurate.
