OTTAWA - The sign on the road to recovery for the Senators has only two words: Just win.

Owner Eugene Melnyk, president Cyril Leeder, coach Paul MacLean and captain Daniel Alfredsson were all smiles as they sat together to mark the opening of training camp Sunday with a press conference at Scotiabank Place.

Back in their old stomping grounds after the 119-day lockout officially came to an end, the Senators had a hard time hiding their excitement with their 48-game race to the playoffs set to get start Saturday against the Winnipeg Jets.
