GDT: RA"N"GS @ SENS | LaLaLa | WE GOT THIS | 730PM | TSN5 |

I expected us to lose, but not this way.

I wasn't feeling good about it either.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Wasnt Cameron encharge of the pp during the maclean era?

That's what I have been told but there was nothing confirmed.

Apparently Cameron was in charge of the PP and Reeds the PK

I thought the Sens would lose a close game tonight. Maybe 3-2 or 4-2.. but as other posters have pointed out, this could be what they need. The Rangers are a damn good team, but the Sens are better than what they showed tonight. Just a bump on the road to the playoffs! Hopefully..

 

[pm88]

I may be one of the few people that migh think this but I think the whole throwing a burger on the ice thing is stupid. The masks that people wear are pretty funny but the burger thing just seemed kinda dumb..exp when people start throwing them before the game is even over

We are only as good as our wildly inconsistent second pairing is

 

[SlyDawg]

Wouldn't worry too much about this one. Clunker had to happen at some point. At least it was

a) against the best team in the east
b) boston lost in ot

Now to look and see if Hamburglar is injured and if so, what in blazes we do in net. Let's cross fingers: the next two games are very winnable.

I expected us to win and for our goalie to stop some pucks. I was wrong... I will be glad to see Anderson and Lehner.

PP needs to improve if we want to succeed in the playoffs

I wouldn't underestimate Florida

They are playing very well

 

[Karlsson2Turris*]

bad game, move on and hope Andy returns soon

 

[Baby Ryan]

If anything, this loss should put the players back where they belong, in the 8th/9th spot, back to reality and that should give them some edge and bite in their game again

Looking forward to seeing how they respond this weekend. Florida and Toronto right? Is the Toronto a home or away one?

Like bob Mackenzie just showed, Hammond wasn't the biggest problem. Tough shots to stop.

 

[BonkTastic]

Perfect example of a problem that desperately needed attention despite the team winning.

Also a perfect example of why you shouldn't fix something unless it's broken.

For all of HFSens's uproar over Legwand on the PP, the "Karlsson-Legwand Right Side Overload"-era powerplay was one of the top PP's in the league, scoring at 20% pace.


There were a LOT of things that were broken under Maclean (... a lot...), but the PP wasn't one of them.

Other than the third goal I wouldn't blame Hammond for tonight

Although had he been 100% he might have saved a few of them

Agreed

I liked Legwand on the PP

They should go back to it

nice avi

Exactly. Team played more composed when Driedger went in.

The players in front started to expect Hammond to bail them out. It was why they "look better" than they do in front of Anderson. They expect Anderson to bail them out. Now they're expecting it from Hammond.

I think the Rangers took it easy on us in the third

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Ehh, I think the third one (softie) was the back breaker to be honest. The team looked dead after that.

This post is on-point, and absolutely reeks of accuracy and astute observation.

They definitely did.

 

[DylanSensFan]

The first one was a softie and it pretty much projected what was going to happen for the rest of the evening.

 

[Super Cake]

Well we all pretty much knew this type of game was most likely coming.

We will have to see how they respond on the games against Toronto and Florida.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

It was a tough shot to stop, not impossible, but it wasn't a back breaker.

 

[Six Assets]

oh please, that was no a tough shot to stop.

 

[God Says No]

Hammond had to make a save. He's been making them so far, today not so much. The third goal was a back breaker. In any case, hopefully the team forgets this one and moves on. We're still in it.
