I’ll be watching this one. Hoping for a good game.

With Stempniak and Aho back, that's the best line-up we can ice. I thought I recall Hawks fans saying TT plays better on the right vs. left, but maybe I have that backwards. Either way, if Skinner goes on a hot streak this is a pretty balanced offense.

Looking forward to watching this game from my perch on high that I've faithfully paid my dues on for nine years now with literally no benefit at all, while a bunch of hobos sit ten rows from the ice for practically nothing. Good value for money!

At least there won't be any Ottawa fans, because there aren't any.

If you had some jedi mind tricks to get by the 70 year old ushers, you too could be sitting 10 rows from the ice.

Fake news. There will be at least one!

You are a holy man...material things of this physical world such as seat location mean nothing to you. You are fully present. You allow what is.

Raise your hand if you predicted that Aho would miss only 4 games with the injuries he sustained. The timing of the bye week and All-star break clearly helped limit the number of missed games, but still.

Message boards never create hysteria and/or overreaction.

He will cut the Sens into shish-kebab with those freaky claws of his.

Don't need mind tricks. You need a beer in each hand and a "whoopsy doodles" smile as you just waltz past. Don't respond to any questions, keep walking.

I thought he was dead.

Please win Canes.

We only have four games between now and the first game after the All-Star break (1/30). Assuming that Aho's injury keeps him out during those two weeks, that is not a lot of games missed. If his knee is not too bad, that is a decent amount of recovery time and he could be back for the game on 1/30. It will be interesting to see what ownership/management does in that time frame as more becomes known about Aho's recovery. I still haven't decided if the purchase of the team takes pressure off of management to make the playoffs this year or if it increases the pressure.

Dundon is not a patient man.

Anybody know if there is a rule preventing the team from placing Aho on IR during the break? If not, and considering the "no surgery necessary" comment, I wonder how serious the injury is if he hasn't been put on IR? Maybe it is mostly the head and the "indefinitely" is to cover the randomness of that sort of time table. Maybe he only misses a couple of games given the timing of the break.

That's true, but given the severity of the hit, the fact that it was both a concussion and knee injury, there were some valid reasons to be concerned (in absence of knowledge of the details of the injury).

Shhh..don't give away secrets.

Kudos to @MinJaBen !!!

 

[Unsustainable]

I’m hoping Aho comes out in beast mode and puts up 10

I’m an optimist.

You sit in the back so when you're angry and throw kimchi and beer at the players it hits the 10$ fans.

ha ha. I'm a realist, which sometimes can be viewed as a pessimist, but I'm really not pessimistic about much in life. And a literalist, as Rod will point out.

NAW BRO THERE'S HOBOS THERE NOW THAT'S THE POINT

If McDundo's actually sells kimchi now, all is forgiven.

You being an eye doctor hardly makes you a head and knee trauma expert.

If my friend from Ottawa goes to the game, it’s a loss for the Sens. He has never seen the Sens win against Carolina in person
