Boring first.

Great period for Ottawa

lol

How bout them lowly Sens giving the 'big bad Leafs' all they can handle in that first?

After the big comeback by Ottawa last game, I wondered if the Leafs would be tentative this game.
SOG heavily in favor of the Sens may indicate Toronto might be.

Leafs came on stronger at the end of 1, but Ottawa kept things at no score even if Joe Thornton did try using Matt Murray as the puck

That would have been nice if that happened, but it is a fair score after one.

Boring first.

I'll take it.

I get Toronto isn't the best defensively, but you're trying to get offensive guys to go against their programming

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

How would a guy thats never had a career end Spezza? Gudbranson is at best an AHL level player

I just love non-sensical posts.

SOG is such a meaningless stat. Some teams shoot from everywhere on ice. With that said, the 1st belonged to Ottawa

Just curious, how old is Elliote Friedman? It looks like he's getting younger, but then that beard he had was pretty massive.

Meanwhile, over in Wings Land, the surprising Blackhawks just missed going up 1-0 as Beaudin rang one off the iron.

Pre-season, and knowing they will be missing Jonathan Toews, with the tandom of Colin Delia and Malcolm Subban in net, someone would have told me at this point the Hawks would be right up there in the standings with the Lightning, Hurricanes, Blue Jackets, Panthers AND ahead of the Stars, I would have called b%$##it.

Yet there is Chicago.
Lankinen in net, with Beaudin, Suter, and Kubilik supporting stars like Kane and DeBrincat.

Hawks are definitely a better watch this season than I initially thought.

The way SN is acting like p/60 is some hardcore advanced stats never to be understood

Reminds me of old timers talking about the google

50

 

[Kevin Malone]

When she's in hockey equipment it looks normal lol

I can’t stop looking now. She looks like she could start bench pressing Anthony Stewart, which is not an easy task.

He's aging backwards like Benjamin Button.

In a couple of weeks, this will be him:

I'll take it.

You should.

Sens may have issues, but I like the fact they don't fold the tents for ANYBODY, and just out there and try and do the best they can no matter what the opposition allegedly rates.

Hubby with a really cool game tonight.

For sure, SOG isn't the be-all end all (I've been saying that for YEARS, so that isn't news to me), but for the most part, it certainly is better to be the team generating them, rather than the team allowing them to be generated in greater amounts against.

And yea, I'd give that first period to the Sens as well, despite the no score.

 

[TropicalFruitGirl2]

Hawks all over the Wings but can't quite put one past Bernier.

I bet the Detroit netminder wishes his team would play at the other end for a while though....

 

[HabsDood]

Thornton is trying

 

[ddlennon]

Loooooooooool

 

[CatchyTune]

Poor Jumbo

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Thornton’s gonna have a heart attack

 

[Mickey Marner]

This ref doesn't want to see Joe Thornton stroke his rooster.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Yeah, high stick

 

[Theodore450]

round 2 You can't do that Thorton

 

[CatchyTune]

That one counts
