Pre-Game Talk: Blue Jackets @ Senators Nov. 17 (1 p.m. Eastern)

[GMT]

Definitely appreciate 1pm games now I've moved back to the UK, staying up to watch the later games and getting 3 hours sleep is...testing (especially when it's anything like the flyers game). Hope the sens can keep building on the momentum from after the last game, and for gods sake don't get too complacent.

 

[Vaclav Varada]

Booooo 1pm games. Just got off work. Gonna sleep right through em. My alarm is usually set for 7pm. Perfect timing for normal games.

We call it Kraft Dinner

I went for Bob Evans and mixed in some ham & broccoli. Probably loaded with a lot worse preservatives and genetically-modified ingredients than KD but oh well.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Ya know, Kraft Dinner is just about 1,000 calories per box. Nasty, nasty stuff. And the carbs...ouch!

Might as well just have a poutine instead.

Yay Condra back in for Kassian, and Bobby will play. Awesomesauce

Condra in, Kassian out today against the Blue Jackets #sens

Paul MacLean confirms that Bobby Ryan will play vs CBJ.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Wow...good news about Ryan.

I wonder though, it really did look like a possible concussion with that elbow. Sometimes those concussions don't show up right away. It happened last year with Rick Nash. He got dinged and played a game or two afterwards before the symptoms hit.

We just have so much to be thankful for, it really makes you think sometimes.

 

[MainDotC]

Rushing RYan back into the lineup = injury will get worse. Thanks Paul.

 

[Deku]

Glad to see Condra back in.

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Just doesn't feel right to have a hockey game so early in the day.

I guess this one is prime time over there.

?

It didn't look that bad, and he skated the next day. Really doubt it was anything to worry about.

2PTS are 2PTS> We don't put Bobby R in the lineup and miss the wildcard by 2PTS the blood will be on your hands.

Yep, 6pm, ideal really. Cant say I feel as positive when they're on west coast roadies though

Look I'm not here to argue with you - that's how I feel and I will continue to feel that way regardless of what you say. There have been too many times players have been rushed back into the lineup to satisfy an immediate need but have cost us long-term problems. If he's ok then so be it, but I would rather we err on the side of caution. I'll take note of this little exchange and be sure to bring it right back up in the even Ryan's injury worsens.

 

[hotICE]

As an european I love the early games! In sweden it's 7pm when it starts, only problem is that the misses is still awake seeking full attention..

 

[Topside]

I just hope this game is over before the Rider game starts. I love the Sens but it'll be no contest where my attention will be.

Why would you want to watch the riders lose?
