“I’m willing to let the chips fall where they may.” Marc Crawford said he believes the Senators' young core is destined for big things, but he’ll let the process play out to see if he'll be back as head coach. (via HockeyScanner)
The key now, he says, is bringing speed and competitiveness, “the winning combination.” The Senators have a lot of potential in both areas, Crawford believes.
“If you look at the history of the game, the people that last are the people that recognize you’ve got to change with the time,” Crawford said. “The one beauty of being in the game — the players are younger and more younger than you. All three are part of a brighter future for the Senators. Tkachuk, 19, scored 22 goals as a rookie and was “arguably our best player” by season’s end, Crawford said.
“I’m going to take a break from the ice. Rest and recover. Then get back into it in a couple of weeks.”Defenceman Borowiecki feels for fans who lost faith in the Senators this season, on and off ice, which was reflected in poor attendance at Canadian Tire Centre.
