For years, the Ottawa Senators have struggled to put together a competitive farm system, leaving them at the bottom of multiple farm system rankings. Those days finally seem to be over, though. General manager Steve Staios was patient and strategic at the draft, adding several players with high upsides while also addressing organizational needs. Then, in free agency, he sought out savvy veterans who could bolster the roster from the bottom up, providing the leadership and experience needed for some of the team’s better prospects to take the next step forward. All in all, 2024-25 promises to be a much better season for the Senators and much more focused on developing the top talents they have on their team.

Daily Hockey Trivia – Ovechkin Goals, Tom Glavine & A $1 Trade

The NHL has been around for a very long time; at the time of writing, it is 106 years old. The Calgary Flames entered the league in 1972, originally operating out of Atlanta, Georgia as the Atlanta Flames. They operated for eight seasons there until financial difficulties forced their owner to sell the team to a group of Calgary businessmen. That group moved the Flames to “Cowtown” before the 1980-81 season. The flaming ‘a’ was changed to a flaming ‘c’, season tickets were sold by the thousands, and a new era began. The first stretch of the new-era Flames was immensely successful; the team qualified for the Stanley Cup playoffs every season from 1980-81 until 1988-89.

For as much as Mac Jones truthers want to pretend it wasn't his fault he failed with the New England Patriots, or as much as he tries to convince us life is so much better as a Jacksonville Jaguar, it's been easy for Pats fans to see through that facade. At the end of the day, Jones is still a former first-round pick who other NFL teams only thought was worth a sixth-round pick this offseason.

The KHL has been a league of infamy lately, as the Ivan Fedotov situation set hockey relations on fire between Russia, the IIHF and the United States. It took Danny Briere to set things right, and to not only yank Fedotov from the KHL but eventually cause the levee to break, as Matvei Michkov has made it to North America.

Most of the Flames' flaws are still true heading into the 2024-25 season, and there are some significant roster concerns.
