GDT: Scoreboard Watching! Boston vs. Tampa

[Coach Travis]

Go Senators

I want to see the Sens get in too. Better them give the Rangers or Habs a scare than watch them both roll over us & Boston. They deserve to be there.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I'd much rather face the Rangers than the Canadiens. Not because we'd have a better chance but solely because the Habs have the more obnoxious fans.

Highly debatable.

 

[Coach Travis]

Highly debatable.

It's probably just because I live in Canada.

 

[Asuna]

Indeed. Plus I don't think Boston beats Tampa Bay, so we're in regardless.

It's probably just because I live in Canada.

Yeah, and it's probably just debatable because I live in NJ.

 

[Shrimper]

Stone scores again. 3-1. Ottawa = IN.

 

[66-30-33]

3-1 Sens now. Good, **** dem Flyers.

 

[Asuna]

Stone is amazing.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Stone made Voracek look pretty dumb.

 

[Asuna]

Stone made Voracek look pretty dumb.

Stone leads the league in takeaways. Impressive stuff.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Stone leads the league in takeaways. Impressive stuff.

After Ottawa's run, he's probably my pick for the Calder.

Even though he might be the oldest looking 22 year old I've ever seen.

 

[Smasher]

I find the "suck it, Pens" comments on the Flyers board rather amusing. It's not like them losing means we're out.

Don't ask what I was doing there...

Honestly, I'd have felt god awful for the Sens if they didn't make it in after the way they've played since January. Absolutely awesome stuff to watch.

If the Pens had one tenth of that team's desperation, urgency and hunger, they'd be a Hell of a team.

 

[Asuna]

After Ottawa's run, he's probably my pick for the Calder.

Even though he might be the oldest looking 22 year old I've ever seen.

Probably my pick too. I'm very envious of the young talent Ottawa has.

After Ottawa's run, he's probably my pick for the Calder.

Even though he might be the oldest looking 22 year old I've ever seen.

32 would be my guess.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Tanner Glass got a point, Stanislav Galiev scored his first career goal, and Ovechkin finished with 81 points.

 

[66-30-33]

Thought Ovechkin would win the artross, nope. It's between Benn, Tavares, Crosby now. Hopefully Crosby gets 2 points, Benn and Tavares 0. Isles now have a chance to win home ice.

 

[Asuna]

Another young player scores for a rival. Sigh.

 

[Coach Travis]

Thought Ovechkin would win the artross, nope. It's between Benn, Tavares, Crosby now. Hopefully Crosby gets 2 points, Benn and Tavares 0. Isles now have a chance to win home ice.

I've been saying for a couple months that Crosby will win the Art Ross with 87 points. So that means he needs a 3-point night for my prediction to happen.

 

[66-30-33]

I've been saying for a couple months that Crosby will win the Art Ross with 87 points. So that means he needs a 3-point night for my prediction to happen.

Bet he will be gunning for it.

 

[MtlPenFan]

I wish there was a way to put this down in 140 characters.

The Sens lose Alfie and trade Spezza. Then Anderson (vet), Neil (vet), Phillips (vet) all go down with injuries. The Sens are forced to play their kids and go on an epic run. Youth is served.

Meanwhile, our stupid franchise with its gaggle of GM's decides to go backwards, with retread after retread because "experience", not talent, skill, speed, or youthful enthusiasm wins games.

Honestly, **** off to everyone in management and ownership.

 

[Coach Travis]

Bet he will be gunning for it.

Well regardless...

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

After Ottawa's run, he's probably my pick for the Calder.

Even though he might be the oldest looking 22 year old I've ever seen.

Stone looked like he was 40 years old even when he was playing as a teenager in the WHL. Dude's just got one of those faces that, if you're in high school with him, you wonder why someone's dad is taking calculus with you.

 

[Callista Rhian]

They scratched Seguin from today's game for being late to practice (the sheer absurdity), so Benn's chance's have taken a hit. Shame - If Sid doesn't manage to win the Ross, I want Benn to win it.

And yeah, it would have been heartbreaking if the Sens hadn't managed to make the playoffs. The way they - and MVP Hammond - have been playing has been just incredible.

 

[radapex]

I have to admit, the Flyers effort is much higher than I thought it would be. Maybe it's because they can't directly spoil our chances any more since we control our destiny, but they can try to spoil the Sens.

They may hate the Pens, but they've still got pride. Ottawa earned their way into the playoffs, so kudos to them. Now it's time for the Pens to put up or shut up.

If the Pens miss the playoffs, or once they're eliminated, I'll definitely be rooting for the Sens. They're a very fun team to watch. I remember when the Pens used to be fun to watch...
