Welcome back to another edition of NKB’s Notebook, where I share some observations from the last week’s worth of games. Unfortunately, with the Ottawa Senators having only played two games last week there wasn’t a whole tonne of material to work with. I’m hoping that given an extra couple of days of practice that DJ Smith will be making a few tactical tweaks that will merit a write-up; some of the reports from yesterday’s practice emphasized how much time the Sens spent on the powerplay, for example. I’ll definitely be watching closely the next time Ottawa has a man advantage.
