[Here I Pageau Again]

My stomach is in knots thinking about it

The game is HUGE. A loss will be a BIG blow, a win will add a lot to the playoff race and make things really interesting.

I just hate that we play so poorly against the Bruins, or that we have issues scoring against them. And I am a bit happy I have to work so I don't need to have a heart attack watching.

 

[Karl Eriksson]

@AmalieBenjamin: Claude Julien asked about Tuukka Rask's availability after today: "I'm not going to comment on that. I don't know."

 

[vdB]

Is he injured or something?

 

[YouGotAStuGoing]

Is he injured or something?

Bruins fans saying "general soreness." But that quote sure indicates it might be more.

 

[hockeykicker]

i feel better that at least the game is at home

 

[Ragged]

This seems like the right place for this. Kudos to SenatorArmy for the inspiration.
Let's do this!!

One Bruin fan misread It as "genital soreness"....we could run with that.

You're nuts... or your nuts?

I got way too bored and may have read all 12 pages this morning.

 

[muffin with tentacle]

I'm going to this game.

Question: do I still throw the burger if we lose?

I won't be at all surprised when the CTC reminds us some time during the day that nothing should be thrown on the ice, and those that violate this policy will be removed from the arena.

I have a really bad feeling that this game will be the one where the wheels fall off.

We aren't going to lose tho, so why as such a question?

 

[Karl Eriksson]

More burgers being thrown = more burgers being bought (assuming they are not outside burgers), more burgers being bought = more money being made by the concessions and the building (Eugene). It's basically the best marketing plan ever. Octopi and rats never made a $ for DET or FL....burgers are profitable, and potentially messy, but harmless.

If Eugene was smart he'd tell Aramark to ensure they up their inventory of burgers to make sure they are in stock right until the kitchens close. Sens lose, people eat burgers, sens win, people throw burgers. It's $9 per regardless.

EDIT: Want to make a few bucks ? Go buy several dozen plain hamburgers, no toppings from McD and sell them for $3 per outside the gates. "Official Hambuglar tossing burgers"

The real Hamburglars are the ones selling them for $9.

That's what happened when you have no confidence and you're afraid of defeat.

"Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today, March 17, that the club has recalled goaltender Jeremy Smith from Providence on an emergency basis. Smith will join the Boston Bruins today and will be eligible for their game against the Buffalo Sabres tonight at TD Garden."

That was yesterday, I wonder if he was reassigned to Providence

Believe the team had the day off

No, not as of yet.

 

[OmniSens]

Trying to throw the Sens off. I'm not buying a Rask injury.

I agree. I would be shocked if he isn't in goal tomorrow. How healthy he will be is a different story

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

Man, remember our last game against the Bruins when we all felt as though the playoff race was over?

Now we get a chance to correct our mistake.

 

[Ragged]

Dude you're really good at this!

Thanks! I kinda do it for a living, but unfortunately, not for the Sens.


Yet.
