It sounds as though Phillip is hurt.
Who do they recall?Boro or one of the other Bingo defencemen?

 

[Sun God Nika]

hopefully we get the lucky bounces in this one

Give Claesson a shot.

Even better, give Claesson and Boro a shot. (if Methot still has the flu.)

Claesson/Karlsson
Wiercioch/Corvo
Borowiecki/Ceci

Sit Gryba.

That is reference to the movie Slapshot.

Man, Condra and Greening have some kind of magic together. I'd do this instead.

Mac - Spez - Zbad
Con - Tur - Ryan
Michalek - Smith - Neil
Greening - JGP - Condra

Snes are gonna get smoked

 

[TristanH]

I don't think having 3 bingo players against a team like LA is a smart idea.... Boro I think would be a nice addition into the lineup since he is a very physical player.. but this is going to be a true test for the sens.

Give Claesson a shot.

Even better, give Claesson and Boro a shot. (if Methot still has the flu.)

Claesson/Karlsson
Wiercioch/Corvo
Borowiecki/Ceci

Sit Gryba.

If Philly can't play bring in Mark. Jam on the blue line is needed against the Kings. Claesson would be overwhelmed by the size of the Kings forward group in his first ever game, they make every minute tough to play.

Like our first game against the Kings. Total Massacre.

 

[coladin]

Bigger question...will the Senators draw less than 15,000?

Con - Tur - Ryan
Michalek - Smith - Neil
Greening - JGP - Condra

I wish Mac would put them back together.

 

[WhiteLight*]

Condra and Greening should be glued at the hips.

Mac has some kind of Neil - Greening obsession going on. Quite unfortunate really. I don't understand how someone can be so blind. MOAR size and hits!

Pre-game thoughts:

And so it begins. When one or two of our D go down, it shows. Now we have possibly Method still out, Phillips out, Cowen suspended. It is abundantly clear why we desperately need that #3-4 D. (with the main reason being that our D sucks to begin with).

Oh wait, we have Ceci now.

Either way, bring up Boro and sit Gryba. I haven't liked his game in quite a while. Don't throw Claesson to the wolves, that's just cruel.

Who starts in goal? I would hazard to guess Andy does.

Ryan with very low minutes last game. Possible flu, because if it is anything unrelated to illness or injury, MacLean should be shaken violently.

I actually like Condra on the top line from a tactical perspective and temporary solution. But it just goes to show the lack of top level forwards on the team. All forwards are healthy and Condra is on the top line . This is not a permanent solution, yet everyone's healthy.. jeez we have problems on this team.

Edit - Maybe Condra will scare the opposition with his hideous face, giving Spezza that extra second to dance around the defenders.

We fine.

Wayne Scanlan ‏@HockeyScanner 5m

Phillips says he's fine. Gives a thumbs up. #blocked shot off foot.

Bruce Garrioch ‏@SunGarrioch 7m

Chris Phillips appears to be okay. "All good," he says. #Sens

 

[Philadelphia Collins]

Wonder how many more minutes Chris Neil will get than Bobby Ryan

between that and Condra on Spezza's wing I'm starting to really hate the choices Mac makes

Spezza needs Condra. That's how horrible he's been.

 

[TristanH]

Greening has to sit.. he just seems to run all over the ice and not get much accomplished. I trust in the stach.. but some line consistency would be nice.
