You finally agreed with me. I said it was a bad trade and Norris has an injury history.

Cozens should have been traded in the off season where we would have gotten maximum value. Not at the trade deadline where there is a lot of pressure to make change.

Adams needs to GTFO before he ruins the team. You take Cozens and trade picks and prospects or other players and upgrade in the offseason. GMs are much more willing to make trades in the off season and not when they are making playoff runs.

Adams is a clown.

Or he shouldn't have been traded at all. All these trades do nothing with this owner, GM and coaching staff.

Kev checking his predecessors' notes - wait a long time like Regier, even to the point of being out of it, pay an extra pick for unknown reasons like both Murray and Botterill. All that's missing is some of Bott's weird conditional stuff.

Just bothers me…it seems like they should have been the team adding the pick based on Norris’ injury history. Kevyn just isn’t a good GM.

Regier is 68 and he might be one guy who would step foot in Buffalo as team president. Maybe as an advisor. Not sure if he is blacklisted by NHL but I would take a role for him

It's been rumored that his "Resignation" from Phoenix over how the league dealt with John Scott was him falling on his sword and he won't ever be back in the NHL.
 
Sens fan here hoping Norris finds a way to put some good seasons together were he puts up at least 70 games in each season. If he didn’t have these health issues he would probably still be in ottawa

If he came as damaged goods we may ask the league for that 2nd back.
Good to see DC playing well.

Can you remind us what this situation was? I've never heard of it, interesting

Scott had been voted to the All-Star game. It was like the refined version of getting Fitzpatrick there years ago. And the league didn’t want that to happen so Arizona sent him down and then traded him to Montreal and then tried to make sure that he couldn’t play in the All-Star game. The league had a heavy hand in how the Coyotes were being run at the time, Regier was PO’d on Scott’s behalf. I think he resigned rather than send John down.

Eh, I don't think it's any huge deal. I think Ruff used the term "nagging" when talking about the injury. Given how we're CLEARLY not competing for a playoff spot this year, letting Norris heal and not get further injured just seems smart.

We basically did the same thing to Peterka last week -- he had a "nagging" LBI and we shut him down for a bit....he might be back next week.
 
Cozens seems to be doing great, all I keep reading is headlines about is how Cozens fits right into the Senators.

This organization can't develop or there is just something rotten that permeates in our players when coming to the KeyBank Center.

Miserable place of suffering
 
As long as it’s not his shoulder, and to the best of my knowledge it isn’t, I still think he’s able to carve out a healthy career.

Norris slots very well as a top six centre behind Tage and brings a well-rounded defensive game and special unit iq.

I’m sorry, but this season is a write off for you guys. Once Norris is familiar with the system and Buffalo figures out their power play system and where they want Norris, his upside is far higher than that of Cozens.

I could see something along the lines of:

10-15 power play goals
2-3 short handed goals
10-15 even strength goals

He can put the puck in the net and a 35-35 70 point guy (I think he can and will get there) that’s defensively responsible is always a great add. I pray he stays healthy for you guys.

There is also a pattern of "play acting" going on to get out and after being paid. That is unethical.
At least one more that has to go (stand around Sam), maybe 2-3 !

He can't shoot anymore because of his shoulder. Don't see him as a pp1 option due to that.
I think he's good center depth which is way better than what punished and slapped Cozens could perform here.

This is just what happens when you are a low budget team with a dumb gm.

Cozens was a trainwreck and headcase here, bringing his team, line, organization, and fans down and needed to go.

Norris should be a fine C2 here and has 20 goals so not buying the he can't shoot anymore. The health issue is a major flag however, but the Sabres signed off on it so like you said. Lets see what this "issue" is the go from there. High side is a solid goal scoring C2, low side is Tim Connolly.

I said before when the trade was announced (and before the details came out), that I’d prefer it to be Pinto. Only because I believe Norris still had value.

But whatever, I’m not gonna bitch and moan about the return unless Norris retires or some shit.
