Yup, Ottawa's a paper tiger.

It's not like I'm meaning to slam on them. They've beaten the teams they were scheduled to play against and looked well doing it. I'm just saying I don't like the new playoff structure and being a team that should have had 6th seed, they had an easy schedule.

 

[Jerry Aldini]

Final Four baby!!!!

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Sens the first team to luck their way past TWO teams?

 

[Commander Clueless]

Every instinct in my body tells me to dislike the Sens, but I really have to be impressed.

You guys quietly assembled a solid team around your loudly assembled Karlsson. Kudos!


Good luck to Ottawa in the ECF!

 

[Tryamw]

Good series. Was fun to watch as an unaffiliated fan.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Bring on anyone, WE ARE THE UNDERDOGS!!!!

 

[TARS]

That Karlsson guy is pretty good.

 

[Ser Grogu]

EK wins A Clash of Kings

 

[EK65IsAGod]

Oh boy, I can't wait to get crushed in the ECF!

the 2017 Senators = Canada's Team!

Serious question: In your opinion, how much easier is it than Edmonton's schedule so far?

 

[Carlzner]

Ranger Corsi darlings Skjei and Smith looked awful tonight.

Yet all I see is trashing on Staal and Girardi... like always.

Alright.

 

[Nakawick]

Congratulations senators. Depending on how tomorrow nights game goes, I will either be cheering for you hard or cheering against you hard. Good luck the rest Of the way.

Karlsson > Orr

 

[Hank Plank]

+4 and the game winning goal, Erik Karlsson is the best player in the NHL. Lundqvist can be the best goalie in the game but is too unreliable and is prone to bouts of emotional outbursts.

Congrats Sens.

 

[albator71]

This is ****ing great!!! What a beautiful team my Sens are, all the haters can suck it!!! we are going to the Final four!!!

By the way I wonder what are the Leafs players doing right now?

 

[St8Sh00ter]

just need one more Canadian team to end a 23 year drought.

 

[Anthony5967]

Emptied the tank in the third. Credit Anderson who made some stops and for Karlsson in on every goal all series from OTT on one leg. Drafted a ****** gem. Most forget too he wasn't even a top 10 pick. I never thought this would be an easy series. Anybody who sleeps on this team is fooling themselves. Too many NYR fans thought they'd walk this team. The d was never good enough. Good luck to Ottawa in the Conference Finals. Exciting spring for them.

Alright.

Smith's impression of a pylon was super on point.

 

[swiftwin]

Death, taxes, Karlsson.

Caps fans breathing a sigh of relief though - Ottawa a better matchup for them in the ECF.

The same Caps that only scored 3 goal on the Sens in 3 games this season?

 

[Le Tricolore]

the 2017 Senators = Canada's Team!

As someone who lives in Canada, **** the Senators. I also wanted the Rangers to lose too, so at least I got half of what I wanted.

 

[NyQuil]

Karlsson > Orr

Tonight you had Cherry comparing him to Orr.

 

[Philadelphia Ducks]

Serious question: In your opinion, how much easier is it than Edmonton's schedule so far?

I don't know. I mean Ottawa's was easier than Edmonton's but Edmonton also had a favorable matchup in R1.

edit: I've never been a fan of divisonal teams being granted a top conference seed. I'd much rather it just be the top 8 teams ranked 1-8. I prefer it that way for every sport.
