Alfreddson gets dumped on for a piss-poor team performance all series long, and that doesn't make sense to me. Chara and Heatley were the definitive under-performers in this series. Either way, Buffalo played well, Miller played great, and they deserve to go on.

If I was Muckler I'd be on the phone with every bottom feeder team on Monday morning, trying to unload the guy. It's pretty damn clear they aren't going to win with him. How much more talent does he need around him?

It's safe to say many heads are going to roll in Ottawa...most likely starting at the top. As storied a career as John Muckler has had, he has to be held accountable for this umpteenth early playoff demise. He brought in a new coach, he brought in an aging goaltender, he failed to bring in proper support for said aging goaltender when his dental floss groin exploded in the Olympics, he brought in Tyler Arnson at the trade deadline when all the Sens really needed was a PROVEN playoff-savvy veteran and none of these moves got the job done. The unfortnate thing is that it was a poor overall team performance that spelled the end of the Sens this year, but as the old saying goes you can't fire all the players.
