After last night’s 6-3 loss to the lowly Atlanta Thrashers, I think its safe to say that Ottawa is done. No Hope, no dreams, it is now just time to enjoy the last 8 games of the season and remember how painful summers are without hockey. Embrace these last games as some of the fan favorites, like Jarrko Ruutu and Chris Neil, may be gone after this season. The 2008-2009 season for the Senators was one most would like to forget, but maybe this was the funk Ottawa needed to get back in gear. I hear that Ottawa is now close to offering Clouston an extension which he fully deserves. I look forward to the changes that will be made this offseason and a very successful 2009-2010.

Not all that long ago I was hoping Ottawa would tank to get the best available prospect to help this team out in the future. While it was fun to see the Sens win a game, I truly believed the future of the club was in this years draft. But now, after going 9-1-0 in their last 10 games, my inner fan has awoken. Only 7 points out of a playoff spot with 10 games remaining? I know the chances are slim, I’m not an idiot, but with the way Ottawa has been playing of late, why not dream of a 12th consecutive playoff birth?
