Are you an expert?

I approve of this post lol

And hey, every now and again I still go back to Youtube to watch a 10 minute collection of Andy Sutton absolutely steamrolling people. They don't make defensemen like him anymore.

The Foligno one I'm 'meh' on as well. We got a top for defenseman who works well with Karlsson, so that's good. I don't think Foligno would have broken out the way he did in Ottawa. But I think the trade was pretty even, or maybe a slight with for Columbus.

The Rundblad for Turris trade was awesome. The Sens traded a prospect who didn't amount to anything for, what turned out to be, a 60-point centre.

The Phaneuf one was also awesome.

Fully agree with the bold. This is why I think that trade was great for everyone involved. We desperately NEEDED Methot (still do), even if Foligno will be good for a few more years.

I'd actually forgotten how little we gave up for Turris, that one trumps the Methot trade.

Chet Pickard... there's a name I haven't heard in a long ass time.

Best Senators trade of the last 10 years, easy. Maybe only surpassed by the Yashin trade. Honourable mention to Foligno for Methot.

Still a bit sore about Foligno, to be honest. Obviously Methot filled a huge need, but he's regressing and Foligno's gone on to captain his team and play very well.

My list of top-five Sens trades all-time:

Alexei Yashin to Islanders for Zdeno Chara + Bill Muckalt + 2001 1st (Jason Spezza).

2008 1st (Chet Pickard) + 2009 3rd (Taylor Beck) to Nashville for 2008 1st (Erik Karlsson).

David Rundblad + 2012 2nd (Anthony Stolarz) to Arizona for Kyle Turris.

Brian Elliott to Colorado for Craig Anderson.

Jared Cowen + Colin Greening + Milan Michalek + Tobias Lindberg + 2017 2nd round pick to Toronto for Dion Phaneuf + Matt Frattin + Casey Bailey + Ryan Rupert + Cody Donaghey.

Honourable mention: 2010 2nd pick (Kent Simpson) to Islanders for Andy Sutton. I just loved watching him play for Ottawa.

Elliott for Anderson. What a deal

Trading for Andy really set in motion the turn of events for the Sens. It's been so nice to have stability in goal.

[Alfie11]

Praise be to Andy he deserves to be the Senators record holder.

Sens won it 5-2. The game tied Anderson for first all time on the Sens goaltenders win list with Lalime

[Alfie11]

Didomenico wasn't in the lineup. Boucher went with 7 D and 11 forwards.

Sens are currently up 5-2 in the third. Goals by Wideman, Claesson, Pageau, Stalberg and Ceci.

Turris is out (hand injury) Smith will be taking his place.

Didomenico might be in the lineup tonight...
