Man, it doesn't seem like its been that long since last season ended.

OTT fans are already have the Holtby sucks chant going.

Game start 00:30 apparently... 00:50 I'm still sat here. What is this? Kick off should be on the dot

Games typically start 5-10 minutes after the top of the hour/half hour but tonight they had all the Ottawa player introductions, two moments of silence and two anthems hence the later than usual start.

Do you think anthems before a regular season game is a bit OTT?

Anthems happen before every game.

Lars Eller with the first bad pass of the season. Congrats.

 

[RandyHolt]

Oshie taking a big hit to complete a pass... no surprise there

 

[philip]

Anthems happen before every game.

that's kinda my point!

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

OV's toe drag is in mid season form.

 

[Hivemind]

Ovie with the first bad offensive zone turnover of the season. Congrats

 

[Hivemind]

Oshie with the first shot on goal of the season. Congrats

 

[Hivemind]

Eller with the first faceoff violation of the season. Congrats

 

[twabby]

Carlson looked foolish on that play by Hoffman

 

[Hivemind]

Carlson with the first egregious poke check fail of the season.
Carlson also responsible for the first shot and scoring chance against this season. Double congrats!

 

[Hivemind]

Orpik and Carlson out there for the first goal against this season. Congrats.

 

[philip]

oh dear, how did that get in. Holtby..

 

[Koized]

Ahh same Holtby we saw against the Penguins.

 

[Hivemind]

Apparenly Hoffman's attempt wasn't credited as a shot on goal. Meaning Holtby's current sv% is 000

 

[amjay13]

Orpik and Carlson out there for the first goal against this season. Congrats.

Hardly their fault. That one is on Holtby.

 

[Corby78]

Fluke goal to start the season. Seems about right.

 

[amjay13]

Goal Connolly!

 

[twabby]

Connolly! Would be nice to have 20 from him

 

[Hivemind]

Connolly with the first goal of the season! Congrats!!

 

[twabby]

Nice awareness by Eller to bump it to Connolly.
