[Super Cake]

Larson was sent back to bingo being that Anderson is up and ready to go, but i would still like to see lehner play because i would like to see a lehner vs. markstrom matchup.

B-Murr was on 1310 and he said he expects Andy to be the backup tomorrow.
This is one of a series of gimmes against trash teams. If we lose more than one against CLB, PHI, FLA this team needs a wake-up call.

 

[King Karlsson]

This will be one of the worst crowds we will ever see

Go Sens Go

Markstrom in the WJC finals years ago, flopping and ragdolling and such. Pitiful

We have the better young swede. Also of note is how Lehner is much better with his composure now, but he can still be fierce.

We lost to Edmonton

Sometimes I worry that Lehner might be actually a bit unstable...then I realize that it's awesome.

Afternoon game = instant loss.

Larson for MVP, wait who is Larson

its true, this guy makes computer generated saves at times

Panthers at 2pm on a Saturday afternoon. C'mon NHL wtf is that. Saturday afternoon games are such crap. It's a Canadian team, we should play on Saturday night. Period.

I'm sure they'll just come out flat because of the crap start time. Hopefully they find their legs early enough to get the W.

 

[coladin]

I like the 2pm start, I have kids who like to watch their heroes play. It's not like the whole sked is afternoon you know...

 

[chrewilson]

But more and more games this year are afternoon games. Sens seem to play their worst hockey in the afternoon. So with the amount of afternoon games and lost points, it can mean the difference between playoffs or no playoffs.
Plus attendance is awful. The Euge will be "broke" in no time.

I expect it to be a tough game. Tallon ripped into his team, they fired their coach and staff. Tim Thomas is starting. This might not go well.

Keys to Win:
Keep turnovers down dramatically..shorten passes in o zone..forwards actually get back deeper.
Lehner is a maniac and stands on his head.
Quick movement in the offensive zone... use cycle to create slot shots don't use only the outside.
Drive the net for rebounds/pass/tips.
Win corner battles.

Forecheck hard, finish checks in the o-zone to wear down their weak defense. Tom Gilbert is on their first pairing soooo

Thomas is starting? Well the sens are screwed. Oh well.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Showcasing us brian campbell i hope

****, forgot about Thomas. When was the last time he lost a game at SBP? 2008?

That's what I liked about Emery & that's what I love about Lehner & I think the team feeds off the fact he is ready to snap at any given moment. I wish the rest of the team would play with his kind of emotion, passion & determination, they would be unstoppable.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

They fired their coach. Easy win.

 

[littleD]

This should easily be worse than the Islanders game for lowest attendance of the year.

[Sun God Nika]

I'm not expecting an Easy win at all, they fired the coach their team knows its serious in their now, and Tim Thomas playing in his favourite rink.
