New Faces In New Places

We welcomed two new players, Cory Stillman and Mike Commodore, into our locker-room last week after the trade with Carolina. I find that fitting in just happens naturally in these situations. I’ve played against these guys for a while and some of the guys have played with each other on other teams.

For the guys coming in, it’s a little harder, not knowing anyone and trying to fit in. But they’re veteran guys. It’s not like they’re young guys. They’ve been around the league and they’ve done it before. And I think we’re a pretty easy locker room to fit in with.

It’s tough seeing players like Patrick Eaves and Joe Corvo leave. You get the call in the afternoon about a trade and guys are gone that night. That’s the tough part of hockey, seeing guys go that you’ve become good friends with. That’s not easy, for sure.

Until the deadline passes, there’s always a possibility of some guys going or being traded. So there might be a bit of uneasiness about it. That’s always been part of it. There’s been some jokes made in the past, scaring guys and stuff about being traded. But we try to keep it light. It’s nothing that we can control.

We attended the Sens Soirée at the Hilton Lac-Leamy in Gatineau on Wednesday night. It’s fun being able to interact with the fans and supporters of the team. It’s a big deal, too, because it raises a lot of money for the Sens Foundation and children’s charities and things like that. So it’s a big event for us. And we have a little bit of fun at it, too.
