Shane Pinto leads the NHL in goal-scoring going into Sunday's play, having lit the lamp seven times on the young season in just six games. As a pending restricted free agent, the soon-to-be 25-year-old is putting himself in line for a hefty new contract. And while the Ottawa Senators weren't knocking down the door this summer to get Pinto re-signed (the two sides were said to be far apart in talks), their thinking seems to have evolved a bit.

A real Canadian flavour to the Sunday Scramble this week (Go Blue Jays), and after giving my thoughts about our Edmonton Oilers in my column on Saturday, let’s capitalize on the neighbourly doom permeating provincial borders… This will be a big test for Calgary Flames general manager Craig Conroy.

The Buffalo Sabres put a nice 8-4 win on the board Wednesday night over the Ottawa Senators, their first triumph of the young season. But that won't put an end to the turmoil surrounding the team just yet. The latest hot-button topic is the future of star forward and pending UFA Alex Tuch. Contract talks have been put on hold for now, but his price tag continues to soar, to "staggering" levels, as noted by Daily Faceoff's Jeff Marek. On Marek's The Sheet podcast on Friday, fellow insider David...

The Preds traded the 23rd and 67th picks to the Ottawa Senators to move up and draft 21st, where they selected defender Cameron Reid, who may have fallen a little to get there — many scouting reports had him ranked a few places higher.
Reid spent the last two seasons with the Kitchener Rangers, scoring 21 points (2G/21A) in 43 games in the first of those seasons and 54 points (14G/40A) in 67 games this year, where he was also awarded an A for the team.
