Ottawa Senators Sign European Free Agent Defenceman Nikolas Matinpalo



The Ottawa Senators continue to add depth from the European leagues! This time Pierre Dorion has added a big right hand shot defenceman, Nikolas Matinpalo.

Brandon Piller and Ross Levitan discuss the signing. Quick scouting report on his game against Canada in the World Championships and stats from his time in Liiga. We have a conversation about what this means for other D-men fighting for a spot on the bottom pair in the NHL. And the Florida Panthers have advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals! Is Brady Tkachuk on the right path to follow along his older brother Matthew?

  1. I hated the new look at first but it grew on me by the end of the episode so its all good!!! lol

  2. N Matinpalo at the worlds played 4th pair D, yes, 4th pair D for Finland ran 8 D. here's my breakdown for the 8 games: and remember, he only played 4th pair D, 11 shots in the 8 games; How many times does Otts play 4 pair D? How frequently does Chabot play 15 to 20 minutes, because you're going to have to cut back on Chabot's ice time. NO MORE 30 MINUTE PLUS GAMES Mr Chabot. Period. You will be team fined.
    J Smejkal Forward, started off on 2nd line begin of tourny but moved to 3rd line, approx 11 shots over 8 games, was on the ice for a few goals by US and then Canada… Fiala had 20 shots in 6 games; Gauthier had 51 shots in 8 games;

  3. The very moment you mentioned Roby's name, I remembered Emil and in this upcoming draft.

  4. I hate the idea that you shouldn’t touch the conference trophy. They fought hard to earn that. Enjoy it!

  5. I'm sorry Dudes, Sens cannot afford to lose 1st round prospects. You're not losing 6th or 7th round prospects that might have a long shot at appearing in a Sens uniform, you're losing top end talent where your scouts have watched these players develop, not to forget that these players were the offsetting first round trades for previous high end players. These are all you have to show for top end talent.

    Using CF, current expenses are: $66.424 incl the Buyout and the Retained Salary. And you're humming and hawing over resigning 1st round prospects but signing 4th pair D overseas?? WTF. You've got approx 18 mil ??? and 9 mil for Debrincat?? I wonder how Giroux will like playing D. Sens can't afford those kind of players, you've already spent that money.

  6. Livin La Ville Pokka !! Sorry for the second comment, I just have to say that anytime I hear Ville Pokka! XD

  7. Yes, the Senators can take lessons from the Panthers: get a freakishly good goalie that let's you win a 3rd round game 1-0…..
