			<description><![CDATA[On the topic of Smith, I don't think he's doing all that badly. Year GP G A Pts Pts/G 2011-2012 81 14 12 26 0.321 2012-2013 23 0 7 7 0.304 His pts/gm is down only slightly from last year (6% down). Yeah, he isn't scoring but he's generating chances and getting assists.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I guess it is crap on Smith day. This whole full year without a goal thing is the biggest load of crap I have ever heard as a reason to dump on him since only about 4 months of that year there has been hockey. I'm sure there are plenty of third line guys in the NHL that haven't scored a goal in over 4 months. Smith has done his job responsibly and the little things he does that don't show up on stat sheets is the reason he is where he is. The only thing I would like to see more out of him is getting under the skin more of the top guys on the other teams and goading them to drop the gloves with him forcing a good trade off. :)]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[i think this smith conversation has been beaten to death. maybe you should try throwing out a little positive energy. example; next game Smith will run over Kadri seperating his shoulder, beat the crap out of whoever decides to fight him, assist on the winning goal and pot an empty netter to break the curse! PRESTO]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[LOVING THE LINES IN PRACTICE (1)michalek-tur ris-alfie (2a)stone-regin -silfverberg (3)greening-smi th-neil (2b)dizzy-ziban ejad-condra I'd assume the 2a and 2b line will see ice time dependent on play, but the stone-regin-sil f line has loads of potential Greening-Smith- Neil will be used to generate offense, not score but make sure to defend against tough lines :) I hope regin can click with those young guys]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[what bothers me as Alcatraz pointed out is that we have one set of rules for the media and fan favs, ie Smith, Phillips, Turris, and another set of rules for the whipping boys, Spezza, Regin, DaCosta's If Spezza was on he goal-less drought that Turris is on, this blog would be filled with trading Spezza the bum. Regin doesn't score, well this is his last year he is done. Phillips play has sucked... but he is a leader, whereas Gyrba with 10 games NHL experience is lost... different rules? Smith needs to contribute offensively, he simply has not, so as is the case with Regin, is this his last year in an Ottawa uniform? Different set of rules I guess...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Well to me good and great are different He is good defensively, but by no means is he sooooo good and great that he is allowed to go a full year without a goal lol If I could hire a guy who will never score but I know 100% he will never be on the ice for a goal against then ill do it, but Smith isn't that guy]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=81671 Those are his career and junior stats Everywhere he has been he has been relied on to play gritty, help defend but also chip in and help win games offensively All I'm saying is he has to start doing that again, or else he is more of a liability. We need goal scoring Turris is in a slump and needs to wake up as well, so is regin, so is alfie, so is our ENTIRE team We need scoring, and I'm looking to the guy who hasn't scored in 1 calendar year who has seen his ice time increase and who is now playing on the pp. It has to start with Turris, and be followed up by with Smith]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I'm defending him because he's doing a good job, all things considered. I'm defending him because he's not our main offensive threat. I'm defending him because he doesn't desever your criticism. Again, Smith is carrying a positive on-ice shot differiential. He's sending pucks to the net... he's doing his job. When you lose your entire scoring threat you have to look to the secondary lines. If Spezza+Michalek were around then sure, but right now he has to step up and find a way to finish]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Exactly, Im picking on Smith, but Regin can be held out to dry to for no scoring Truth be told every dman but Lundin and Gryba has scored for us this year Smith is getting chances, but he has to finish My whole point is not that Smith is a bad player, or that he isn't good defensively Its that just because he plays tougher minutes, doesn't mean he is excusable to our scoring problems We need goals, and if he wants to be a quality shut down guy he has to find a way to get to the back of the net If he can't then why hire him when there are jay mcclements, alex Steens, Brandon Sutters, Matt Cullens, Chris Kellys, Rich peverleys, Antoine Vermettes out there who can all do the same thing while producing]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[we all expected and wanted more scoring from Smith. No one is questioning his heart, or hard work, but for a 3rd line centre, especially with some of our stars out, we need some production from him. The way he is playing right now, he is a good 4th line Centre, not a #3. As Alcatraz states we are hiding behind some incredible goaltending that is sheltering our brutally boring offense, and Smith is a part of this. Our PP is horrendougs. Please stop the Gonchar Phillips pairing on the PP. They are the oppositions best Penalty killers. Weircioch and Benoit had great success in the minors, let them start off an see what they can do. Our top 6 right now is made up of rookies, and some bottom 6 players. I would love to give DaCosta and Stone a run in the top 6, and see if we can generate any form of pressure in the oppositions end.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Great on the PK, your right. But lately hes been taking stupid penalties. Seems to offset... We all know Smith has been struggling this year with offensive production...to be fair so has the whole team, but Smith does stand out a bit with so many sketchy plays and wild shooting over under and around the damn net! (sigh) I catch myself lately yelling "ah c'mon Smitty!" during the game. That is one nasty monkey clutching to him that won't go away. We know hes not an offensive jaugernaut, but we also know that once in a while this kid can score a beauty.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Excellent points, you should not be criticised for the truth! The truth? Smith has a positive on-ice shot differiential; ie, his lines are sending more pucks to the net than shots allowed. If we're talking about the numbers trending back to 'normal', then we should also expect Smith's output to rise as well.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[http://imgur.com/pi6QGnp using this from a yost blog to help prove my point That shows how our goaltending stacks up versus league average If we didn't have that type fo goaltending which is unbelievable our goals against would be probably 1 goal against higher per game. Which means we would be letting in 2-3 goals against per game. Now knowing we have to scor 3 goals per game to win, you want only our 1st line to be responsible for that, since as many have pointed out Smith is now our 2LC stop defending him because he is on the ice against skilled players when Bishop and Anderson stop everything]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[He is a good defesnive forward, buy by no means does that mean he should get a pass and for 1/4 of the game we aren't expected to score which is what your saying Essentially its ok to employ a player to play 1/4 of the game to just defend That goes against our system and goes against the debate we had last year for those saying karlsson shouldn't win Norris trophy Its your job to always try and score. Its not a job to defend If your out there against the top lines, your job is to make THEM play defense, which Smith is nto doing, we spend time in our own zone and give up 30-40 shots a game. Quality shots to, and our goaltending has been out of this world]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Right, but that has little to do with Smith or his play... he's not there for offense. Rag on someone else. Smith is doing his job and shouldn't be thrown under the bus. The thing is he is not doing his job, thats my point His job is to defend and score. If we are letting in 3 goals or more then it is his fault because he is allowing pressure and shots against As I already mentioned we are the worst team for shots against Our goaltending is bailing our team defense. If we are letting in more than 3 goals a game and losing its cause we aren't scoring enough AND allowing too many chances]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ UMMMM......he was on a line with Malkin and Neal and couldn't put up points......how do you think he would fair here. Touche, though he was a goal scorer all throughout Junior, and produced in the AHL. Players don't just become NHL goal scorers overnight. Though it is concerning that on that line he couldn't put up point. For the cheapness of his contract (625K I think) that seems like a decent risk to take on maybe a new chance with less pressure to perform.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I recognize advanced stats and use them. I see that he starts half his shifts in the D-zone and against top lines. My point is that right now our goaltending is allowing us to ride out this epic cold streak. If we let in 3 goals, we don't win. easy as that So if we start letting up 3 goal games more consistently, how long can we let this go from a guy playing 15+ min a night]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ But you have to look at ice time. 15 min a night, you need more than 25pts over an 82 game season. If we want to be successful Smith or whoever is our 3LC is, HAS to no questions asked be able to contribute 10-15g and 15-20assists for about 30-35 points Agreed. But remember, without Spezza, Smith isn't exactly getting to play his 3LC minutes/role he normally would. Idealy, a player like Ryan O'Reilly would be our 3LC so that he could fill in as a 2LC if need be.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Not quite true. He starts 45% of all his 5 on 5 shifts in the offensive zone. (Yes this is lowest on the team I acknowledge that) He is playing the tougher minutes of our team as it stands. But all I'm saying is that right now our goaltending is saving hsi bacon because of our close games. If our goaltending resorts back to league average and we start losing 3-1, 3-0, 4-1 more consistently, Smith wont have anywhere else to hide. We need production and can't wait this shit out We need a minimum of 2-3 goals per game to win, and we are averaging 1.5 since we lost 19+65]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ But you have to look at ice time. 15 min a night, you need more than 25pts over an 82 game season. If we want to be successful Smith or whoever is our 3LC is, HAS to no questions asked be able to contribute 10-15g and 15-20assists for about 30-35 points Personally I'm starting to wish we kept Foligno for the 3LC and tried to get CLB to take Smith cant see them accepting that trade...however they did make some pretty shitty trades]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Check out some advanced stats (which I hate) before making these comments. Just because you don't see it doesn't mean it's not true. You're less likely to notice a great shutdown play (ie, taking away passing lanes, skating someone into an non-scoring position, etc.) than a goal. Smith has some of the toughest minutes (high quality of competition), with a majority of starts coming in his own zone and STILL has a positive shot differencial while on the ice. Or where you only judging his +/-?]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Smith starts most if not all shifts in the defensive zone against top line opponents with wingers that arent known for their offense. if anything, Smith needs to get his shots off sooner and stop trying to pick corners. a sniper he is not... dirty goals are what he needs to focus on. put the puck on the net and drive... goals will come]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Agree to a point - Smith's offensive game has been stalled for a LONG time. Worst thing that ever happened to the guy was those early goals last season. But my point is just that his defensive game is still top notch and we can't afford to sit him for that reason. It would be nice if Smith added more offense, but if you pro-rate his 0G/7A from 23GP you get 25P over an 82G season. Smith had 26P in 81G last year. So that's not too bad, all things considered. He's a -4 with 0G this year; definitely room for improvement. Still, he's never going to be an offensive juggernaut.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[To be honest, and I will be ostracized for this but... Smith isn't that great defensively. He's not this premier shutdown guy people make him out to be. Put it this way. Smith is one of our worst guys at -4(hate this stat) but we have had a team svp of .945 We are basically tied with buffalo and Edmonton for most shots against per game at 33 Now my point is that if we werent getting Vezina caliber goaltending from 3 goalies, and had league average of lets say .910 to .920 svp we would be losing much worse, and Smith +/- would suffer as a result I'm not just dumping on Smith, as many other players of ours are letting up alot of shots, but reality is thatw e are spending way too much time in our own zone, and thats from the fact we can't generate sustained offensive pressure anymore]]></description>

But my point is just that his defensive game is still top notch and we can't afford to sit him for that reason. And I think his PP time is more because he's able to win face offs (Spezza is missed in many ways). Though maybe MacLean hopes he pots one on the PP and gets a bit of swagger back too.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I agree with Turris, but not so much Smith. Smith has been doing this since last march, even when we had our full lineup. He is getting chances, just not finishing, and Smith isn't playing over hsi head, he should be welcoming this additional pp time, not crapping the bed with it]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Comment #1: Sitting Smith... I agree with Hax that there may be reason to sit Smith, or even Turris, but its because they're playing over their heads in light of Spezza's injury. Smith and Turris are picking up the slack, and look worse off because of it. Sitting them will only compound the problem. With Smith out, JOB moves to his spot, but who picks up the slack...? Comment #2: Havlat for 9MM - I wish we would have had Havlat when we lost Karlsson. Havlat would have kicked Cooke good! Slicey-slicey]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ It's a tough situation for MacLean. If Spezza was healthy maybe he could sit Smith for a game or two (I see the need). But since our only hope to win games is to try and win 1-0 or 2-1 I think he has to keep playing Smith. Look at the minutes he's playing and look at how our other centers are getting pushed around or run around more. Sit Smith and we give up an extra goal per game maybe. To back up Hax here are the figures as in today's Sports Section of the Ottawa Citizen, Senators team scoring : With Spezza and Karlsson : 3.20 Without Spezza : 2.11 Without Spezza and Karlsson : 1.56 These above statistics are showing why we are lacking in firepower!!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Mtl last night played the same kind of shit game as Philly and NYI just played against Sens. Officiating this year is laughable. No one is calling the cheap "running around" and after the whistle kind of behaviour and so rats and turds just keep doing it. Few teams are willing to sacrifice 17 minutes of a valuable player to correct this. It's sad when the quality of the game is brought down by players and coaches that encourage this type of play. It should come as no surprise that quality guys like Karlsson get injured in a league that tolerates cheap hits.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Sens need a guy that can shoot the puck, we are lacking in shots on net, so if Stone comes in and shoots the puck gets it towards the net, he is going to succeed at the nhl level. He might not score right away, but I would be looking for him getting the puck on net and getting some scoring chances going. We need to get to those 2nd and 3rd chances from rebounds, we have to smack in those dirty rebound goals in front and I feel we have not been after those rebounds that much in the last few games.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[If Stone hadn't of been hurt he'd have 10 nhl games under his belt already this season. Which way will it go though - if he scores a couple in his first 2 or 3 games he is the new messiah. If he doesn't score any in his first 5 he's a worthless bum who can;t skate. Ahhhhh the interent whatever did we do without you.]]></description>

Bingo does not play till Friday so there is no reason not to have Mark Stone back up with the club for Wednesday just in case.

			<description><![CDATA[ I assume you mean Grant gets sent down - but yes absolutely agree. Kid should be playing and if Stone and MM9 are both ready to go we might see Grand and Dziurnzski sent down. Not sure how it works for possible limits on number of call-ups allowed and yadda yadda, so I can't speak to that. But that aside, I think Dziurnski sticks around a little longer, even if MM9 and Stone are both ready to go. Grant is out, and maybe Daugs sits out again in favor of Dzuir! Anyway, its not really a big deal, its just bottom 6 shuffling, but essentially I think Dzuirnski is playing better than some other bottom 6 peices we have, and wouldnt be the guy coming out just yet.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Mark Stone can score. Early in the year when you had all that talent during the lockout he never had that much of a shot of being the teams go to guy for goal scoring, but still was racking up points which is great. I love to see Silfverberg-Zib enajad-Alfredss on on the same line, but not sure if I am liking Michalek-Turris -Stone on the same line, it could work but Turris has not been playing his best hockey at all. Michalek would do better with Zibanejad I think.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Just like Greening and Zibby, Smith will only do him good to sit out a game, we are approaching the last time he scored a goal, which was March 8, 2012. Thats pretty remarkable, and unacceptable for a guy thats suppose to be our 3rd line center, yeah hes shutting other players out but he has to chip in here and there, he can't go a whole year without a goal, even Butler has scored more than that, and hes been waived twice. As for the lineup. Michalek- Turris- Stone Silfverberg- Regin- Alfie Greening- Zibby- Condra Obrien- Grant- Neil Also either play Grant, or send him back to Bingo, he should be playing some games.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ no I love it... that is one reason I miss Chara so much, Emelin gave Seguin a rib shot meaning to hurt. That is what should have happened to Crooke and to Zinaldo, 2 pieces of crap!!! But no... we needed our captain to teach Zinaldo a lesson, while Phillips got bitch slapped by Fedetenko... just wrong!]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Mentioned this last week and was just filled with hate comments saying smith is doing his role, is shutting down the opposing team and Smith is not responsible for scoring goals So be prepared lol i am, thats partially why i sweetened it with the 1 game sit and not an all out hate tirade against him. dont remember what you mentioned exactly last week though. i do appreciate smith's shutdown capabilities, but he is carrying a -4 rating and i think starting to get into penalty trouble. he is getting into mike fisher territory with his cold stretch.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Temper expectations on Stone a bit; 38 games played- 8G/13A/21 points Benoit is a Dman and was 34games- 9g/16a/25 points in four less games. Just don't want people to think he is coming up to fill the net-8 goals in 38 games in a prime role in Bingo]]></description>
