Pre-Game Talk: Vegas baby, comes to Ottawa, Saturday afternoon 2:00pm on TSN

[Alex1234]

2 games in 12 days next
No time to practice the wraparound
That takes a lot
Like Andy a net a puck and a player...

 

[Tundraman]

Are post game excuses ready ?

If you heard him over the last 2 days, Boucher caused the results by convincing his team they couldn't win against such a tough and structured team.


I expect Boucher's post game comments to reflect how well he and Dorion pre-scouted Vegas.

 

[Joider]

Even though the team definitely didn't play well, Anderson needs to be so much better. If he actually makes a couple of the saves he should have it's at the very least a tie game.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Yay, a loss! LETS PANIC! WOOHOO!

It's not like we lost because of shit luck. There are legitimate concerns.

 

[swiftwin]

I always wonder if those hits like the one on Smith just now are interference. Smith clearly no longer has the puck and gets rubbed out from going forward.

If they call it interference against us in the 3rd period of a game 7, you would think they would call it in the regular season, but nope. The refs were on a mission this game after Smith hurt their feelings earlier this game.

 

[Xspyrit]

I am at the end of the 2nd period

PK has been killing us... pretty much like if Vegas was 3 in 4 as they scored their 2nd juste after the 2 minutes ended

Really poor coverage by Karlsson on Vegas 3rd goal. Awful from Andy on their first goal

Those 2 really need to be better if we want to win more games

How the **** is that an instigator??? The VGK player dropped the gloves first.........

I was wondering the same thing...

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I think Oduya needs to be stapled to the bottom pairing

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

The excuse/reason will be
1 penalty discipline
2 work/compete level

 

[SensFactor]

Turris looked awful.. Great job Toronto sports network and Pierre Dorion for letting that leak get out.

Compared to the last game againgst Detroit, we looked awful.

 

[DDRhockey]

Isnt anderson like 37 years old.

 

[Tundraman]

Yay, a loss! LETS PANIC! WOOHOO!

Based on points per game projected out, if it was to continue this team is not a playoff team. I believe they are better than their record indicates but they can't afford to give points and games away like they have.

 

[Tuna99]

We made the playoffs because of Condon last year - he needs to see more games with Andy not being sharp.

Boucher can’t be stubborn on his starting goalie, Condons been much sharper this season and that should be the deciding factor.

EK isn’t skating well and Andy isn’t sharp. If those two don’t get going we’ll remain inconsistent

 

[Deku]

Detroit game was perfect. This game was trash. I hate this inconsistency.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Toi Oduya 18:49 Claesson 12:59 and Wideman 12:07

Toi should switch between Claesson and Oduya

 

[RedWhiteBlackGold]

Toi Oduya 18:49 Claesson 12:59 and Wideman 12:07

At least Oduya drew 2 penalties.

 

[PTmbp13]

Wow. Bad game. Everybody looked tired. Disapointment today. Hear Erik has some illnes today. It sure looked like sumtin wrong. Get well in Stockholm. Sens get both wins there

 

[swiftwin]

I think the flu is still going around.

 

[DDRhockey]

Yep ek confirm swe media he is ill

 

[Super Cake]

Need to get better.

Goaltending needs to be better and the defense needs to be better.

 

[SensFactor]

We got man handled in our zone. Vegas hit every one of our dmen hard causing turnovers. Games like this you miss Methot. Big body that can clear the net.

 

[swiftwin]

Based on points per game projected out, if it was to continue this team is not a playoff team. I believe they are better than their record indicates but they can't afford to give points and games away like they have.

How so? We're 2nd in the division. The Leafs are a point behind with the same number of GP.

Also, we've been dealing with an insane amount of injuries. It's really not time to panic yet.

 

[Mr Hat]

Toi Oduya 18:49 Claesson 12:59 and Wideman 12:07

Toi should switch between Claesson and Oduya

Even wideman has looked much better than Oduya last few games. Oduya can't retrieve pucks... those reverse plays are cringe worthy. A couple strong plays here and there but overall a washed up vet who is playing 5 spots higher in the depth chart than he should be.

 

[pepty]

If Anderson

Yep ek confirm swe media he is ill

Aside from that he's still getting up to speed after a serious operation and getting used to how his injured foot /ankle feel.

 

[Alex1234]

Isnt anderson like 37 years old.

Looks 51 to me

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Was Oduya still playing with EK?

If so, I'm hoping the experiment is over.
