I'd leave Montreal around 645. You will make it in time. Best best would be to park at Baseline park and ride and catch the 95 Orleans to the arena. Buy from scalpers.

Also, it's blazing hot here in Ottawa and the sun is shining, so dress accordingly.

Through rush hour from the East end, on a game night, all the way to Kanata?
Not a chance.

If you have a reliable GPS, I would recommend getting off at the Boundary Road exit, well before you even hit Downtown and avoid all the rush hour traffic. Either way, as you get close to Kanata, you will be stuck in traffic from every direction. I would leave earlier.
GO SENS GO!

I think there might be some sabotage by some posters here
The trip from outer Montreal to Ottawa is like 1.5 hours, but with the weather today and the fact that you have to cross the entirely of Ottawa in rush hour to get to the west end arena, you'll want to leave by 4:30. You might be able to get away with leaving at 5pm depending where you start from.
And yes, you will absolutely get stuck in traffic when you hit the east end of the city. Count on 15 km of gridlock out to the arena.

If you want to avoid the traffic just take the Quebec route through Gatineau, take the Champlain bridge, following the Sir John A Expressway and then enter the 417 through Woodroofe.

Just heard a segment on TSN1200 about how Boucher stated that Mad Max won't play tonight cause he is nervous everytime he steps on the ice in the NHL.
Kind of a weird statement, no?? Why even call him up then?
Did I hear wrong? Can someone clarify exactly what he said?

Just that he cant handle the puck or make plays as well as he does in the AHL up here. He gets pretty nervous for games apparently. They call up whoever deserves it the most not always the top prospect. But yeah, we're going with 11-7 vs the Habs.

YES, the traffic is insane, at that time of the day.
I would also caution you NOT to park at the CTC, as it takes almost an hour to get out of the parking lot, and back on the 417.
I suggest you drive to Hurleys or another establishement, in Kanata, and take their shuttle bus to and from the game. Shuttle buses get ushered in, and ushered right out of the parking lot after the game ......... and will save you time and money.
I would suggest you call and find out what time you have to arrive, in order to take the Shuttle.

Pretty sure he won't play tonight because he's in Belleville and actually played in Manitoba this weekend.

This is an EXCELLENT suggestion, for someone coming from Montreal ..... and take Mitch Owens (#8) to the 416, and then to Kanata (Hurleys as I suggested)

He said Max gets too nervous and has to learn how to manage his nerves, he coughs it up and has trouble holding on to the puck... I agree what's the point of calling him up..

Mad Max shouldn't be recalled at this point... I mean he has 29 NHL games and still has nerves? It's definitely understandable but look at Chlapik who was carrying the puck through the neutral zone in his 1st game at 20 years old.
Next call-up should be Chlapik again, White, or Paul.

There's something very strange with max. It's seems we call him up BECAUSE we think he's bad.
"You know what you get" it's strange. It's like when we kept calling up DZiurzinski

Why call up a good prospect to play just a hand full of minutes when they can play much more in Bellville? Give them the occasional taste of NHL life, but make sure they get plenty of time to develop.

This is such a huge trap game for us.
Habs are due for a big win.
Let's hope they get it against Toronto and not us!!

Jim has really bounced around the last few years. Too bad he did not work out to be an NHL player as hoped.
