Official 2013-14 "Stay Positive/ Silver Linings" Thread

[Sens Rule]

5 Senators are in he top 57 players in points.

Bobby Ryan is tied for 7th in goals.

Quite possible Ottawa will have six twenty goal scoters this season.

I mentioned this in another thread, but it's worth repeating here:
- Kassian has been relegated to the press box for 9 straight games.

That's a streak I'd love to see continue. Press-Box Ironman!

So far Greening has just under 80% of the number hits he had last year (in 60% of the games), and 51% of the number from the year before (in 34% of the games), on pace for 284 just under 100 more than his career high. Plenty of us have want to see him get more physical, and he has definitely taken that step.

 

[Super Cake]

We are 1st in the atlantic division for "goals for"

Thought after the week we've had, and with the win tonight against Florida, we ought to have a thread where we can be positive about the 2013/14 season... For instance:
- We're 3rd in the East in "Goals For"
- we're only 2 points out of a playoff spot, with 50+ games to go.
- we don't play in the West (thank god)



Thread Rules:
1) Be Positive
2) Don't Not Be Positive

Fyi, we are 5 points out of a playoff spot.

 

[DylanSensFan]

• Karlsson is going to win the Norris.
• We are going to make the playoffs.
• Zibby will score 20+.
• I will no longer make any lynching threads for the rest of the season.

i will call players out if they need criticism, but will not make threads about it... or our owner or our gm

HOLD ME TO THIS.

Shoot, you're right. I forgot about re-alignment playoff seeding rules.

We're 2 points out of 8th in the conference, but because the Metro division is so broken, we're 5 out of the playoffs.



... stupid re-alignment...

Don't get too excited - you know he's going to be playing on Saturday.

Don't get too excited - you know he's going to be playing on Saturday.

thats a great thing, nothing like a potential benching to get our bottom 6 to up their game

 

[Gothenburg 40*]

Not only that but he thinks Johan Franzen, is an effin poosy!

HAHAHA it was MacArthur that said that?

I heard that...it was great.

 

[Gothenburg 40*]

In theory, if Ottawa wins all of their inter-divisional games (and not in OT or SO) then they should be alright. They do have plenty of them left.

[BonkTastic]

Merged the 2 "positivity" threads... that's my bad dizmal, I didn't realize you'd already made a thread like this.

 

[SenzZen]

Chris Phillips is out 2nd highest PP point producer.

I couldn't find the "vomit inducing thread" so I guess it goes here.

Other thread title was better.

Sens next 5 games: TB, TOR, PHI, BUF, BUF
Leafs next 5 games: DAL, OTT, BOS, LA, STL

Talk about making up ground.

Great motto (lynching threads amount to on line bullying). It's B.S.

 

[Slow Hands]

Great news guys, the team is hosting a flash mob

 

[Wondercarrot]

Zibby is breaking out.

Man, he does a lot of good things out there.
Quick, smart decisions with the puck to along with his high end physical skills.
he's fast, he hits, he works hard both ways.

his curve is heading straight up at this point.

I know it goes unsaid, but we absolutely need to win the TO game. TB has been faltering of late too, so it would be great to also win that "4 point game" and get us to within 5 of them.

That's a streak I'd love to see continue. Press-Box Ironman!

When Kassian plays:
6-2-3

Yeah, keep him out, he's ruining our chance at a lottery pick (oops we don't have a pick)
Don't complicate things coach. When kassian plays, team wins.
Since he's been out of the lineup:
3-6-0

 

[Niv]

Here's something to be positive about - we play the Sabres twice next week. My body is ready.

i bet my dad's life hes playing on Saturday...


And it would be a damn shame if he takes hoffman out of the line up, a damn shame..

again, the team wins when he is in the lineup for whatever reason. team's record is the opposite when he doesn't play.
28 games, 11 wins. He has played in 6 of those wins.
9 games, 14 points. The other 19 games he did not play in...12 pts
