"On Thursday, the Scotiabank Place crowd greeted the returning Mike Fisher with a warm welcome 11 minutes into the game.

As the Ottawa Senators paid tribute to Fisher's career with the Senators in a video highlight package on the scoreboard, he received a standing ovation.

It marked quite the contrast from the mood in the building when the Toronto Maple Leafs visited last Saturday. According to Senators owner Eugene Melnyk, that atmosphere can't be tolerated. Melnyk, talking early Thursday afternoon in a fan chat with season ticket holders, vowed to make changes."
