According to Bruce, Dorion's nephew Pereon is on the Greig line.
Norris is skating with players not dressing tonight. Ullmark is being kept off ice today. Forsberg is the starter.
Go Sens Go!

It seems like they didn't really plan on him playing too early.Norris really is cooked
Starting to get worried about Ullmark…
So far this sounds exactly like last year lolIt seems like they didn't really plan on him playing too early.
That said, if he only gets 1-2 pre-season games in before the season starts, I think he's going to be behind the pack pretty fast. After a surgery like that and all the time he has missed, he really needs to get the game reps in.
You know, except without the reports that he tweaked his shoulder and there was a setback, keeping him on IR, him not participating in any contact at practices, exactly the same...So far this sounds exactly like last year lol
Ya, I get the concern, we all have it, but it is clearly not that same happenings as last year.You know, except without the reports that he tweaked his shoulder and there was a setback, keeping him on IR, him not participating in any contact at practices, exactly the same...
Much stronger participation at practice ; should be gaining confidence in his ability to play.Ya, I get the concern, we all have it, but it is clearly not that same happenings as last year.
Will Hamonic be statistically the worse defenseman in the league.I can imagine there are a few of the Sens regulars chomping at the bit for some game action even if its preseason.
Does Stutzle's line dominate and light it up?
Does Greig's line pester the living f&*k out of their opponents or just outplay them?
Can the Big "O" say not so fast to the Jenik talk?
Does Boucher lay a big hit?
Can Guenette challenge JBD? Will either play in front of Hamonic?

Also, i think unicorns are kick ass!Look, this might be a controversial take here but... f*** the Leafs.
I think Tokarski is going to get signed.Hopefully he's in there by Sunday... so he can get some game action in 2-3 before regular season.
Based on Sogaard's play with Ottawa and his play in Belleville in the playoffs he is not close to being an answer. Let's hope Forseberg can return to pre injury form. I am hoping Merilainen can steal the net in Belleville this year.

When guys come off injuries mid season, you typically see them go through a progresive process where they increase the activity and see how the body responds before getting them into games. Sounds like they are doing that though preseason.If everything's fine, why are they treating him so delicately? Sounds to me like they're not sure he can hold up even in a preseason game. Not reassuring.
I don't think that's what people are saying. They're not asking Norris to be rushed back. They are concerned that he isn't ready to play yet and is falling behind, and they are not trusting the reports that he is "feeling good and doing well".When guys come off injuries mid season, you typically see them go through a progresive process where they increase the activity and see how the body responds before getting them into games.

it's funny, when they rush guys back and they re-injure themselves, people complain that the team is incompetent and should never have put the guy out there, and when they are more cautious in getting the guy back in, we complain about that too. Can't win.
I'm surprised that anyone was not expecting this though. Seemed to me like it would always go this way. Ease him in. Green said he would play a preseason game, so if he doesn't, that's when I will start getting concerned and drawing parallels to last year.I don't think that's what people are saying.

if he was being treated delicately, he wouldn't be wearing a regular jersey...he'd be wearing a yellow jersey just like all the other guys around the league wear when they are to be treated delicately in practiceIf everything's fine, why are they treating him so delicately?

i thought it was Pereon ?Can we talk about
Perron-Greig-Cousins
This is going to be so fun to watch. An identity line, unreal stuff.
I think Tokarski is going to get signed.
the Surgeries expected timeline for return was 6 months which put him back mid Sep. He's in a contact jersey, and is being slowly introduced into full participation. I don't see it as him falling behind, but sure, people aren't trusting reports, and that's more the issue here. People don't believe what the team is telling them, and then assuming somethings wrong.I don't think that's what people are saying. They're not asking Norris to be rushed back.
