Pre-Game Talk: Nov. 9 Ottawa Senators vs the Toronto Make Believes

[Gil Gunderson]

Reimer will play like a god.

 

[BigRig4]

Guys it's Condra Wiercioch out for Ryan and Phillips. Lehner starts. I imagine lines will be:

MacArthur-Turris-Ryan
Greening-Zibanejad-Michalek
Smith-Legwand-Neil
Hoffman-Lazar-Stone

Phillips-Karlsson
Cowen-Ceci
Boro-Gryba

 

[Super Cake]

I am not scared of Reimer. I honestly don't give a **** what previous stats say. They mean absolutely nothing.

Sometimes they do. Didn't Thomas say the lighting in Ottawa was to his benefit or something?

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

In what ****ing world does Greening deserve to stay over Condra.

Someone please help me understand. Condra helps the team, Greening drags it down. Greening played not bad last game, not gonna lie. Condra is better though. I'm assuming this is solely for display. Condra also always plays really well vs Toronto.

He's been better than Bernier this year...

The trend of Ottawa facing backups continues. Might set a record.

 

[DrakeAndJosh]

Please Lehner get me the win!! The struggle is REAL with my goalies in my pool

Haha, same year. Would it also be too much to ask for him to get 43 saves and a shutout?

Condra and Ryan are RW, Greening is a LW. Is Condra on his off wing better than Greening? Maybe, but he had a good game, so I don't mind rewarding him.

I'd rather Condra, but tbh I don't think it makes a big difference.

New lighting system this year. Maybe it will throw him off.

Is anyone making a gdt?

They switched Michalek to RW to accommodate Greening on LW. Condra could have easily slid in with Zibby and Michalek.

Edit: Not that I think it's a huge deal. I would way rather have Condra in though.

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

Yeah, Greening playing over Condra is a joke. I loved the Boro fight last game but Greening was on the ice and he should have challenged Thorburn, we can't have our D in the box for 5 in a tie game and Greening should be fighting tooth and nail for a spot on this team but alas, he has a big contract so we won't see this guy work hard again until his contract is almost up.

The coach must have seen something during practice that you don't know about.

 

[ChocolateLeclaire]

My Bills just blew it today...please win Ottawa...I need this.

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

Hellz yeah. Go Chiefs! Can't wait to face the Broncos in Arrowhead.

If you are going to dress F-Jax, use him. He was the most effective back by far in the snap count he had. Why wait until the last drive when you really need him. Marrone makes no sense some times

doubt we play thomas again

ever

lol

just by looking at how he plays
you can see the sense of urgency in his game

 

[StefanW]

Being a Bills fan is to have your hopes built up only to be trampled over and over again. They are the NHL version of the Leafs.

Speaking of which, hammer time. I think we should take this one. My prediction is that Lazar will get his first goal (that is actually credited to him) in this one.

 

[Super Cake]

Where is the gdt?

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Obviously Greening stays in in case we go to the shootout again. MacLean just said on the radio that he used him because of his one SO goal in Newfoundland. Come on guys it all makes sense.

Chiasson is a RW and should be replaced by a RW, so Condra. Idk why Greening is getting all these chances to prove himself when we all know he's garbage.

Who cares they're both scrubs. We have a RW coming in so they scratch Condra, either way that's definitely not what will make or break the team.

 

[Slack]

I am offended by this "Make Believes" nickname.







It's a proper name, should be "Make Beliefs"

 

[starling]

Greening almost scored in a shootout. That's why. Where has Condra been at that time?
