This afternoon, the goal-starved Senators announced that Mark Stone has been recalled from the Binghamton Senators. In 38 games during this AHL season, he has 8 goals, 21 points, with a meager 1.37 shots per game rate.
Now what has he done in his professional NHL career...
Can Binghamton Keep It Up?
Brandishing a record of 17-7-1-2, the Binghamton Senators currently reside in second place in the AHL’s East Division.

While watching the World Juniors over the holidays, you would expect that watching an NHL game afterwards would be slick, fast and polished. Not so for Ottawa and Tampa Bay tonight.
