Condra and Greening swapping positions - Condra with Spezza and Michalek.
Greening gets moved down to the third line. The rookie power forward is enjoying a breakout year with 12 goals and 27 points through 53 games. He likely sees the top line again this season.
Greening is back up on the top line after getting banished to the fourth. The power forward has 11 goals and 26 points through 52 games. Expect him to get a boost from his time at the All-Star Game.
Greening moves back to the top line, where he has been most effective this year. The rookie power forward has eight goals and 18 points through 28 games. The Sens are hoping a change in line gets him going again.
Lines are shook up- Turris with Condra and Greening.
Greening moves back to a scoring line after a brief stint on the third line. The big winger has eight goals and 18 points through 37 games and should be able to continue chipping in.
With Michalek back in the lineup, Greening moves down to the third line. The rookie power forward scored eight goals and 17 points through 36 games, playing mostly on the top line.
Greening was hurt during the team's last game. The top liner has four goals and eight points over 15 games. Expect a further update prior to their next contest.
"There’s lots of skilled players in the league, but he’s such a physical specimen that he’s hard to control, he’s intimidating, he can hurt guys on the forecheck and he creates lots of space for himself and his wingers."
Over the first two games, Greening has played on one of the team's top two lines producing two goals in the process. A power forward with skill to boot, the 25-year-old could pot 20 goals while playing with his talented linemates.
One that has potential, though, is the threesome of Colin Greening, Jason Spezza, and Nikita Filatov. Spezza had some history with Greening last season and he has now played a couple of pre-season games with Filatov.
Greening has a chance to stick on a top line should he continue gaining chemistry with Filatov and Spezza. Last year he scored six goals and 13 points with the Sens over 24 games. The budding power forward could very well score 15-20 goals if he stays healthy and on a scoring line.
The Senators also announced the signing of forward Colin Greening to a 3-year, 1-way contract. Greening tallied 13 points in 24 games with the Senators, finishing 2nd in rookie scoring with the team. Greening was Ottawa’s 7th round selection in the 2005 NHL Entry draft.
