Ottawa Senators prospects

Matt Puempel's very important season

The weird thing about lockouts is how hockey time seems to stand still. And yet, even as we double down on "other" sports and try to find entertainment in life that isn't punctuated by the dulcet tones of Dean Brown's "SCRAMBLLLLLLE", hockey
