Pre-Game Talk: New Jersey Devils @ Ottawa Senators Oct. 17 (7:30 p.m. Eastern, 4:30 p.m. Pacific)

[Super Cake]

We are finally at the home opener. This should be a winnable game for the Senators imo. The Senators need to be at the top of their game though being that the Devils are still win less and are hungry for a win.

I am hoping that MacAuthor finally scores his first goal.

Go Sens Go!!!!!!

Oh. On you calling me a bruins fan, well i am a bruins fan, but i will always be a senators fan 1st.

Anderson will most likely start the game.

Alright we need to keep the wins coming here, first game at home the CTC will be rocking sens win 4-1.

 

[pepty]

Two desperate teams.The devils haven't won any games yet, and they are probably primed to jump on a team just back from a long road trip.

After their struggles on the road, the Sens know their fans will melt down if they dont win this game.

Hi everyone.

Hope to have a good game with no one from either team getting hurt.

Also, you are correct that the Devils will come out with some kind of desperation to win a game before the season spirals out of control. Considering that they have to give up a 1st rounder due to the Kovalchuk-contract fiasco, being a non-playoff team this year would be disastrous. Plus, our so-called "esteemed"(try "moronic") head coach is on the proverbial hot-seat right now as well.

Should be a good one for all. Take care.

Your coach is not the problem.

 

[glenwo2]

Your coach is not the problem.

Volchenkov/Harrold Pairing is actually the problem for us.

The coach continuing to send that pairing out there is the problem as well.

Pete is a stubborn fool who refuses to adapt and use young players. He instead sticks with vets constantly, to the detriment of the team. Other teams we've faced, the team looks slow as molasses in comparison.

Anyway, sorry about the rant. As trying a time as this is for me, I still can't wait to watch more Devils hockey tomorrow. That's what being a fan is all about.

 

[Back in Black]

Someone here mentioned the Game was switched from Sportsnet Sens to Sportsnet East!

Anybody else hear that????

Good luck this year. Must get annoying as a Devils fan hearing how the Devils are boring still. I actually enjoy watching them. You guys play really up-tempo and have a great forecheck.

It sucks to hear Volchenkov is still struggling. I will always love that guy for the years he spent in Ottawa.

Anyway best of luck to you guys this season.

The Devils are slow???

No one could have predicted that...

Thanks. I needed a laugh, man.

 

[Qward]

I am going,my record for the last 2 seasons is 5-2 won both home openers.

 

[Derivation]

Pumped for the home opener. Road tripping it down from out of town. Any recommendations for pregame drinks and grub beforehand around the CTC?

 

[Senscore]

Still not as pumped as I should be but only because it's New Jersey and there's simply no way to be completely pumped for that.

 

[PatrickEaves]

But they are still boring to watch....

Not in the same way, but still boring.

They are boring to watch i got to admit. I don't expect a high scoring game. It is going to be a low scoring game.

 

[glenwo2]

One other thing for Sens fans here :

You might be seeing the last of Martin Brodeur tomorrow.

This might be his final year.

 

[Senscore]

You might be seeing the last of Martin Brodeur tomorrow.

Yes, hopefully before the end of the first period.
