Sens are green but flexible

Interesting tidbit in this year of rebuilding for the Ottawa Senators. There are 8 roster players that are waiver exempt. This illustrates how green the team is, but also how flexible management can be with the roster in terms of shuttling players between Ottawa and Binghamton.

Courtesy Capgeek.com's waiver calculator, here is a list of current roster players on the Senators that are waiver exempt. This shows the number of years (not including 2011-12) or games he has to play before lose his exemption (whichever he reaches first):

Bobby Butler 1 year or 30 games

Erik Condra 1 year or 31 games

Colin Greening 1 year or 32 games

Stephane Da Costa 2 years or 72 games

Mika Zibanejad 5 years or 156 games

Jared Cowen 3 years or 155 games

David Rundblad 2 years or 158 games

Erik Karlsson 1 year or 15 games
