Jared Cowen, the Future is Strong on the Senators BlueLine.

Found December 20, 2011 on Pro Sports Blogging:
PLAYERS: Jared Cowen,  Erik Karlsson,  Matt Carkner,  Brian Lee,  Sergei Gonchar,  Filip Kuba,  Adam Larsson,  Eric Gryba
TEAMS: Ottawa Senators,  New Jersey Devils
In 2009 the Ottawa Senators selected from the WHL, Spokane Chiefs defenseman, Jared Cowen.  At the time it seemed like a pick that would take years to develop.  Cowen wasn’t the best defenseman. He wasn’t ranked among the top defensemen in the draft and was never a big point getter in his junior days. He managed to rack up only a combined 41 points in 3 seasons and then suffered a knee injury that required surgery. Expectations were not high in the eyes of Senator Fans. However Cowen bounced back fast, scoring 44 points in his final junior year and taking a run at the WHL Championship. The Senators assigned Cowen to their American Hockey League team to help them compete for a Calder Cup Championship; Cowen added 4 assist in 10 playoff games helping The Binghamton Senators win the Calder Cup. At the start of the 2011-2012 NHL season, it was obvious that Jared Cowen would most likely be playing his 1st season as a professional hockey player at the AHL level. The depth of the Senators...

Senators' Spezza named NHL's first star

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  December 19, 2011
Ottawa Senators stud Jason Spezza received the NHL's first star of the week honors on Monday.

Gran Turrismo: Turris, Turris, More Turris News

Via The 6th Sens  |  December 19, 2011
Now that the dust has settled on the David Rundblad/Kyle Turris trade, it remains to be seen how long the Ottawa Senators will elect to keep 14 forwards and 7 defencemen on the roster. Although Bobby Butler signed a one-way deal this past summer, he is exempt from waivers because he has not played in 70 NHL games or three NHL seasons. Having played in 61 career games, there is...

GARTH: Foligno Family Reunion

Via HockeyBuzz  |  December 20, 2011
Nick Foligno played his 300th NHL career last week. Tonight, he'll be on the ice with his "little" brother Marcus, who will make his NHL debut for Buffalo in Ottawa. Marcus is 6'4 220, and is considerable bigger, and some would say badder, than his older bro. After this morning's game day skate, Nick spoke about how special it is to have his little brother...

Senators 4, Sabres 1

Erik Condra combined with newly acquired Ottawa center Kyle Turris on the first of Condra's two goals and lifted the Senators on to a 4-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.

He dropped a pass to Turris, whose shot from the right side was stopped by goalie...

Travis Yost: Gameday: Ottawa Can Grab Second-Place in Kyle Turris' Debut

Via HockeyBuzz  |  December 20, 2011
Make sure to follow Travis on Twitter and Facebook! -- If I told you that the Ottawa Senators could grab a piece of second-place in the Northeast division with a win tonight against the Buffalo Sabres, would you believe me? Probably not. But, as I've said all year, the fact that this team - one that's comprised mostly of young talent and spare parts - is so competitive...

Stealing One from Buffalo

Via Pro Sports Blogging  |  December 20, 2011
The Ottawa Senators stole a playoff spot from Buffalo tonight with a 4-1 win on home ice. It was a night for stories, with sibling rivalry, a fresh start, a shaky star goaltender looking for redemption and the return of veterans to the blue line. All that is enough excitement for one game, but this game surprisingly had very little going on until the third period. Marcus Foligno...

Playoffs!!!1!...?

Via Scarlett Ice  |  December 21, 2011
So I wake up today and the Sens and Leafs are tied for 8th in the standings. Can anyone help me out here? Are the Senators overachieiving or are the Toronto Maple Leafs failing miserably?
