Joe Corvo is a more mature player than the last time he played with the Senators, which was five years ago.
Corvo requested a trade in 2008 because he wasn't happy with his playing time and didn't like the scrutiny involved with playing in Canda. "I'm more comfortable with it now, I faced a lot of scrutiny in Boston (in 2011-12)," Corvo said. "You've just got to understand you can't be on your phone all the time, looking at blogs and reading into anything, which I don't even do anymore." Now, at 36, he's also realistic about his ice time. "As I've gotten older I think I have a better idea of different pieces of a puzzle on a team," Corvo said. "I'm way more open minded as to where a coach feels I fit in on a team."
