I am doing an Ottawa Senators Franchise to go along with my Calgary one. I have updated the rosters so that they match today's NHL and have simmed up to the Allstar Game.
The ingame Senators have nearly the exact record as the real life Sens posting a 28-19-5 record. The Senators sit 3rd in the Eastern Conference in a 3 way tie with Pittsburgh and Washington. Both Pittsburgh and Washington have played 4 and 3 games less respectively.
Within their own Northeast Division, The Montreal Canadiens and Buffalo Sabers are 6 and 9 points behind the Sens. Toronto holds a 5 point edge over defending Stanely Cup Champions with 50 points to the Bruins 45 points.
The Boston Bruins are suffering huge from the infamous Stanely Cup hangover. They are the only team in the Northeast Division that has a sub .500 record.
When it comes to scoring leaders, the NHL goals leaders at the Allstar Break are none other than Alex Ovechkin with 31, and newcomer to the elite goal scorers is Loui Eriksson of the Dallas Stars. The assists leaders are Nicklas Backstrom who has been feeding Ovie all season and the estranged Ilya Kovalchuk with 42 assists each. They are followed closely by Kovalchuk's teamate Zach Parise with 40.
The Senators are led by none other than star centerman Jason Spezza who has 26G and 25A for 51 points on the season. He leads in goals and is chasing team leader in assists Filip Kuba who has 30.
Newcomer Kyle Turris is having a solid season posting 14G and 26A for a total of 40 points at the 52 game mark this season.
The Senators next game is in Boston against the Bruins.
Spezza, Karlsson, Michalek, Greening, and captain Alfredsson had a great weekend at the Allstar game but are all looking forward to the playoff push.
In other team news, GM Brian Murray stepped down after having some heart complications and the new interim GM is apprentice Nic Jenson of Ottawa. Nic has just recently graduated from the University of Ottawa in Business Management as well as Sport Management. Although being a young man at the age of 27, he has been a Sens fan since 1992 when the came to Ottawa. He will want nothing more than anyone in Ottawa, to see the Stanely Cup come to town.
