Pre-Game Talk: Wings @ Sens Dec. 29. Alfredssons Jersey Retirement. ALFIE ALFIE ALFIE ALFIE ALFIE

[dmarc]

Somehow I was lucky enough to score some awesome seats for this game for Christmas. Going with my old man. So excited! Go Sens!!

 

[MusicTeacher]

I'm driving up from CT to the game! GSG!

 

[littleD]

there better not be any detroit jerseys in the stands for this game.

When was the last Wings game in Ottawa that had no Detroit jerseys?

Lots of Red Wings fans in Ottawa, lots of Red Wings jerseys tomorrow.

Is it just me, or are most of the Red Wings/Bruins/Rangers fans in Ottawa old dudes with beer bellies?

 

[2CHAINZ]

Wings are trash

Well Boucher said that it will still be a long while before Anderson comes back, so hopefully Condon can forgot about the game against the Rangers and go back to playing like he has before. If he sucks against the Wings as well, we are screwed. I am hopeful that what happened to Condon last year doesn't happen this year being that the team in front of him just gave up completely.

I wanted to take my wife to this game since we are in Ottawa for the holidays but the face value and stubhub value tickets are pretty crazy... Also almost completely sold out not much left

/edit/
My wife suggested instead of spending $150+ per ticket in the 300 level, we go to a bar to watch, so any suggestions for a good Sens bar?

Sens house downtown in the market.

Sens house downtown in the market.

Thanks, I assume we'd need to be there quite early to get seats/bar space?

thursday night for a home game you will be fine.

For this game yeah you probably will. I'm not sure when the whole ceremony thing starts but if you go for an hour before puck drop you shouldn't have any problems finding seating.

The ceremony starts at 6:30 so I would advise getting there a decent amount of time before then.

 

[ToastrStutzle]

I'm still pissed off about the Rangers game last night

A win would have put us 5 points up on Boston with 2 games still in hand. That would have been HUGE.

Let's hope they come out firing vs Detroit. I feel like we've always had a real tough time against detroit.

 

[2CHAINZ]

If they play like they did vs the Rangers Ottawa will win this in pizza line fashion.

 

[Super Cake]

Well it looks like i won't be able to see the ceremony at all.

**** gamecenter.

Only has the Red Wings broadcast.

How the **** am i suppose to watch it now? Sens better stream it on their website.

Don't worry if Condon falters we have Matt O'Connor on the bench ready to go.

They put the Neil 1000 game ceremony on their youtube. I don't see why they won't do it with Alfredsson's ceremony.

Not live, but better than nothing.

What?? That makes no sense. Check around game time. Im sure they'll have it.

I'm a gamecenter user and they haven't missed a tsn broadcast yet

I'll check again tomorrow. As of now though, there is only the Wings broadcast, which starts at 5 my time.

But then Melnyk will say it was stupid to start him on the Alfie game.

 

[Aurilius]

My beer league team bought ice time for a between season get together. Gonna miss watching this one, and hope they put the ceremony up on the tube.

My favorite Alfie moment was a chant going up in MSG at a playoff game. Small group of fans but it drowned out the place.

But the Lazar drop pass was to nobody just like Spezza.
