GDT: Senators @ Avalanche | Nov. 25th - 7:30 PM MT | Home Sweet Home

[Flanagan]

Ottawa Senators (11-5-5) @ Colorado Avalanche (8-12-1)

The Colorado Avalanche return from a 7 game road trip (tied for longest in team history) and host Matt Duchene's future team, AKA the Ottawa Senators. The Avs finished the trip with a strong win in Winnipeg for a respectable 4-3 record. The Sens come to the Mile High City riding three straight wins, including consecutive shutouts from ex-Avalanche goalie Craig Anderson and a high scoring defeat of the West-leading Stars.

Bobby Ryan and Matt Duchene are both on offensive hot streaks and look to continue their scoring Wednesday night. The Senators are far ahead in league standings, but have lost 8 of their previous 9 meetings with the Avalanche.

Can Colorado pull off the win and inspire false hope in their devoted fans? Or will another crushing blow be dealt in the collapse toward a 2016 lottery pick. Only time will tell...

Rosters:

Prince - Zibanejad - Stone

Hoffman - Turris - Ryan

Michalek - Pageau - Chiasson

Lazar - Smith - Neil


Method - Karlsson

Cowen - Ceci

Borowiecki - Wideman

Stars wanted to burn down our village, but we burnt down there's. Sens want the same, Avs know what to do.

 

[ASmileyFace]

That picture of Anderson is something amazing.

Hard to know how this one will go. Anderson has struggled against us since his departure, so he's sort of due for a good game.

I'm thinking 1-3 Ottawa.

 

[tigervixxxen]

Is Anderson going to play b2b?

 

[Flanagan]

Is Anderson going to play b2b?

That's what I was told by a Sens fan before the Dallas game last night

Also apparently confirmed here:

[EdAVSfan]

That left wing depth....

 

[Ararana]

Avs usually do a good job of making Anderson look foolish. Lets hope that continues.

 

[The Shermanator]

Sexy. Light em up tonight please.

 

[Avs44]

Anderson

not questioning you, I just wouldn't have expected it. However their backup hasn't played yet this year so that's why too. I guess Hammond is injured?

Fantastic GDT (even if it does support NDP quotes).

 

[Foppa Frossa]

I would like to have more than one line plz.

Is it political? If it is then I'm going to have to ask that its removed.

626 vCash on Avs. Yolo.

I would like to have more than one line plz.

Wouldn't it be easier if games just were 20 minutes long?

 

[Flanagan]

Is it political? If it is then I'm going to have to ask that its removed.

That guy's a Canadian party leader, and a major campaign platform issue of his was the promise that he would "abolish the senate". I thought that sounded like a funny description of beating the Ottawa Senators. Just a joke

He's a political leader but I was joking. Flanagan's quote isn't to support the party, it's because that particular leader was quoted saying he was going to take out the Senate over the last few years. We take on the Senators tonight. I support the photo in the OP even as a non-NDP supporter. I think it's clever.

edit: of course my newfie friend responded quicker than me...

 

[ASmileyFace]

I fully support taking out the senate tonight

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

We have one great line and then the rest. Oh dear.

Thanks, I didn't know so I asked. Just a non specific joke is fine.

 

[agentblack]

OTT is 11-5-5? jeez

Everything in the east has been all about the Habs, Rags, and Caps, had no idea they were playing this well.

8-3 Sens. Karlsson with 6 apples.

 

[Nzap]

I like the Avalanche background on the roster.
I remember someone else liking doing that as well

Anyways, again won't be able to watch. Important conference tomorrow. Have to be fresh.
Hoping the scores section provides me with joy tomorrow.

 

[playasRus]

Was really hoping we'd go with Driedger instead b/c Andy got really overworked last night towards the end.

 

[JLo217]

Roy thought Landeskog was good last game? I don't think he's been good since around game 5 of the year.

Go Avs! I think they win 3-2.

When we were at the game Monday my girlfriend said what's wrong with Landeskog? I said what do you mean (assuming she doesn't watch enough to know when a player is on or off their game). She responds and says "he sucks this year. It's a good thing he's pretty."
