f***. Em. Up.


Hopefully Zub and Sanderson are good to go. They are unquestionably the biggest stabilizing presence on this roster

Sanderson won't play tomorrow.

Haven't heard anything about Zub yet.

I hope we win.

Zub was a possibility apparently. Sanderson is a maybe for Saturday

[armani]

f*** yeah! Can’t wait to see this team full strength for once, hope Sandy is not that far behind.

I think the Sens are going to destroy the Anaheim Rubber Ducks.

Definitely need them next week.

Monday - TB
Tuesday - Cats

Five baybeee. Then 10 more. Then playoffs.

 

[CornerStone61]

I'm going to this one, hoping to continue my win streak of when I go to games

[Sun God Nika]

It’s insane how the sens are 8-2-2 and haven’t moved a smidge up the standings and still sit at the bottom. This league is tough

 

[swiftwin]

Last year, we hit .500 on our 49th game of the season.

If we win our next 3 (two of which are very winnable) games, we'll be back at .500 on game 52.

Not that far behind.

 

[Back in Black]

Another Hamburglar run, coming up.....

Keep in mind we also keep falling behind in games played. But yeah, the teams ahead of us aren't losing ground either. Parity, baby!

 

[Crosside]

Martin: I think we're much better at managing the game now

Sens Interim Head Coach Jacques Martin joins the show to talk about his team's win over Columbus, where he's seen the Sens improve since taking over, and the impact Claude Giroux has on the team

We need to go about 23-10 over our next 33 games to make the playoffs. (92 points)

It means we'll have to play at roughly the same winning percentage as a top 3 team in the leage to close out the rest of the season. So like Dallas or Boston good.

So we can only drop 10 more games.

Tall order, but I'm in. Go Sens Go!

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Just get back to .500 and go from there.

Incredible how different of a team they look under JM & Alfie.

The good news is if we can recreate that record over the next 12 games we'll be right in the mix for a wildcard spot.

Did it once. Now do it again.

Sure... if you wanna talk negatives...

the 8-2-2 run has only moved them 1 position up the EC standings and 2 positions up the league standings - and they are only 5 points closer to the second wildcard spot but now have 3 less games in hand.

If you are an optimist though...

8-2-2 since Jan 12 is a 0.667 win%... which just happens to be the St. Louis Blues win percentage after Jan 2, 2019.

Maintaining that until the end of the year (22-8-3) would give them 93 points, which was good enough for wc1 last season.

So it doesn't matter what happened before now. Game vs Ducks needs to be win 1 of 22 and they give themself a chance

Go Sens!

The team looked awfully different during stretches during DJ's tenure as well. I think it's different this time around with JM, but I can't help but worry that this is just another one of those stretches that we've witnessed the last two seasons.

I am fully convinced that we are seeing a seismic shift for this team with how it plays, unlike any of the runs under DJ, but we will see.

You could totally be right, and I certainly hope you are. I'm forced to be cautious due to the last two seasons.

 

[Alf Silfversson]

I am fully convinced that we are seeing a seismic shift for this team with how it plays, unlike any of the runs under DJ, but we will see.

It's how I feel as well. It's pretty clear they are more committed to defense and have vastly improved their breakouts and neutral zone D. BUt what if the players just tune this out?

Who knows. I think they're learning how to win games and give yourself a chance every night so I'm going to choose to be optimistic.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

You could totally be right, and I certainly hope you are. I'm forced to be cautious due to the last two seasons.

That's fair.

You know, I probably would too, but JM and Alfie have my confidence and they'll have to prove me wrong to lose it. DJ never had mine in the first place, certainly nowhere near the level they command, and never changed my mind otherwise in his time here. That doesn't mean I'm going to kick and scream and call him a bozo either though.

I also just feel like I'm watching a completely different team out there, both as a group and individually. The 4th line, the goaltending, the support for each other in general. And many of the players have spoken about it pretty openly.
