Easy win

 

[TheDebater]

If Tampa scores 5 or less goals this evening, I will consider it a good game for Ottawa.

 

[Altimus]

be nice to break the afternoonn curse. and all 4 Russians on a line would be cool.

 

[Sens72]

7-1 win for Tampa. Abramov scores the lone goal. Hope I am very wrong.

 

[2CHAINZ]

Good to see Abramov getting some reps with one of our leading goal scorers in Sabourin. Good to see the new coach playing the kids with some talent instead of our past coaches who would play the kids with 4th line scrubs.

Yes good on Dorion to find the coach that personifies all the things he wanted to change from Boucher.

 

[Caeldan]

Looking at the forward lines, all I can think of is that we seem to be heavily loaded down one side of the ice, while having zero options on the other wing.

I mean if Tkachuk and Duclair could play on the same line, that'd be a line I'd like to see. Duclair breaking down with the puck for the first chance, Tkachuk there for garbage collection.

What’s the rush?

3rd back up goalie of the season we've faced.

Came in here to post this. 3 backups in 4 games

 

[Blarginator]

Sabu is our next star forward.

 

[Senscore]

Do your job, ref.

 

[swiftwin]

f***in rights Melo.

How the f*** is that not a penalty?

 

[Senscore]

f***in rights and lefts, Melo.

 

[SensBrawler]

Not sure how that wasn't a penalty.

Good on Demelo to stand up for Boro though.

 

[DrEasy]

Tampa's the team wearing red, right?

 

[The Devilish Buffoon]

Anyone who thinks Sabourin is one of our worst players so far this yr isn’t watching

 

[Senscore]

Wait so why does our coach need a coach?

 

[StoicSensFan]

Sabo's puck awareness is not great

 

[DrEasy]

Tampa taking over the game now.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

This team has had issues clearing the puck without icing it over the last few years

 

[Slack]

I like how Sabourin calms the puck down, turns to identify a man in the neutral zone, then immediately ices the puck
