Stajan has been good lately though for his role at least. Hathaway should come out for Shore he's been really bad lately.
Yeah not sure why Hathaway has a job. He contributes nothing.
Good to see another game where they get points against teams that they should.
I wasn't able to really watch it but the part I did tune into was a crazy back forth was the game like that all the time?
No the game was actually super boring pretty much until the Stajan goal, then it got hairy
I'm a little concerned that the Flames played a close to perfect game and still only managed to get two past Condon. Something is lacking and I still can't tell if it's the system or the talent, probably both.
Either way, the Flames control their fate right now. Win the games they're supposed to and they'll be in the race.
Guys, has anyone been able to figure out what Erik Karlsson was doing on that Stajan goal last night? I watched the highlights and I'm very confused.
I’ve said this lots, get Hathaway in the PB and put Lazar with Janks and Bennett. If anything, the rewards of getting Lazar going would be more than we know we are getting with Hathaway. Lazar is coming around and he should be rewarded. All the coach needs to say “we are going to give you a shot, you need to bring more, so let’s see what you got”.
In his post game interview Stajan said Johnny was calling for the puck back from Lazar, so Karlsson and the other guy went towards Gaudreau leaving Stajan open.Guys, has anyone been able to figure out what Erik Karlsson was doing on that Stajan goal last night?

As a Sens fan. I feel for Karlsson. He's still one of the best players in the league, but I no longer consider him top 5 in the world. He's lost a step for sure due to injury. Which is too bad, he used to be unreal to see live. Hopefully he can bounce back next season, but who knows at this point.
I prefer Lazar on the Stajan line, they play a more defensive role and Lazar's speed creates rushes we won't get from the 3rd line who Gulutzan contains to the offensive zone.
Hathaway could be upgraded though.
I'm not a Sens fan, but I definitely like Karlsson's game and I feel bad for the guy. He deserves better.
It's sad when you are known as the burger guy and not your nameI didn't realize Lazar was the burger guy!
I think the loss of his wingman in Methot has hurt him more than anything TBHI think his game is fine, honestly. I just think he doesn’t want to play in Ottawa. In the outdoor game he looked fine and in the Allstar game he looked like a stud. The mistakes he’s making are mental and once he gets moved, I expect to see a reinvigorated Karlsson.
I don't think Hathaway is pressbox fodder. I do believe he is done developing as a player and would serve us better as a fourth line player. Ideally he'd be there with Stajan and Lazar and Shore would be on the third line.
