It’s only been six days since the Ottawa Senators began their 2022-23 season. Almost a week and they’ve played three games so far with a record of 1-2-0. Three games is a tiny sample size, but it’s all we have to go with so far, and it’s nice being able to analyze any sort of hockey after months without it. Realistically, we can’t draw any conclusions about this time until at least the 20-game mark, so we need to be patient with a lot of our “proclamations.”
However, for the purposes of this article, I want to make some way too early proclamations based on what I’ve seen so far.
