from Lyle Richardson at the Hockey News,
But with Gerber now mired in a mid-season funk, the Senators have no one else with big-game experience to turn to except Emery.
Forget about shopping him for a replacement, as the salary cap makes most GMs less willing to gamble on a problematic goalie with two years and almost $7 million remaining on his current contract.
Besides, there’s really no one available from other teams who’d be a suitable replacement.
more and other NHL rumor talk too…

It’s not Gerber that is in a funk, it’s the Senators. And even when Emery does play they don’t play hard for him - in fact they put in less of an effort.
It appears to me Emery has lost the respect and confidence of his teammates.
Neither goalie the Senators has is going to win them a cup - but they are both good enough that the Sens could win despite them (or at least one would have thought). If this is the real Senators, and if Alfredsson and Heatley make this team that much better then both these players are better than I ever expected… and the rest of the Senators are not nearly as good as the Ottawa meadia makes them out to be.
Bottom line, this team is beatable - perhaps even by a team in the East!
