Ottawa can't score right now without Spezza, but we will still find a way to lose.

I guess Myers will be back in lineup tonight. The question is who will sit out instead.
Anyway ... with that said: We'll lose.

Weber. He committed the cardinal sin to Ruff: 3rd period delay of game penalty followed by a PP goal.

I'm just looking forward to seeing more Hecht! It's like cow bell, I just can't get enough! Sens out shoot Sabres 48-14. Sabres win 3-2. Fans become confused. Ruff gets extension.
