Pierre Dorion's done his part. Now it's up to his team to do the rest.

The Ottawa Senators general manager spoke about the acquisition of winger Viktor Stalberg on Tuesday, a third-round pick heading to Carolina, his second trade in two days. Dorion sent promising prospect Jonathan Dahlen to Vancouver for Alex Burrows on Monday, and then signed Burrows to a two-year extension.

Dorion's message to his group is simple, and one they surely understand.

"Win," he said, according to Postmedia's Bruce Garrioch. "We have enough pieces that we should be in the playoffs," Dorion added.

Burrows brings toughness and leadership, while Stalberg will be relied upon to bring more speed to the Senators' lineup.

Head coach Guy Boucher's happy.

"He told me he did a few cartwheels (Tuesday)," Dorion said.

Dorion, in his first season as GM, was heavily criticized for trading Dahlen out west, but disagrees with the notion that he's mortgaging the club's future for a playoff spot. He believes in his club, and he's giving it a push.

He also thanked Senators owner Eugene Melnyk, who approved the additions and the extra dollars on Ottawa's payroll.
