[Back in Black]

Should be a good one. We seem to have Bishops number.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say this is going to be a great game.

It seems like every Ottawa - Tampa game is a very high energy and high scoring affair. Lots of fun to watch

 

[ChocolateLeclaire]

Yep, every time I think this team is about to skid, they usually come back with a good game. No exceptions tonight. Lehner will be on point.

 

[SensBrawler]

Legwand's 1000th game tonight

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Just win. We can't afford to lose those 2 points.

 

[TheNewEra]

smith might be a healthy scratch tonight per garrioch

 

[Ouroboros]

smith might be a healthy scratch tonight per garrioch

Long overdue.

 

[The Macho King]

Just a head's up - Hedman is probably playing his first game back tonight, and it looks like Namestnikov and Brown are the healthy scratches. Good luck and hope everyone stays healthy.

Ottawa's 35.4 shots against/60 at EV is the highest total I can find for any team going back to 2002. And yes, worse than Buffalo this year.

That's bad, right?

 

[TheNewEra]

Long overdue.

im interested in what the lines are going to be then, i guess zibby is sticking at C

mac-turris-chiasson
hoffman-zbad-greening
condra-legwand-neil
michalek-lazar-stone

if we are going based of practice

hopefully coach swaps it up so stone is on line 1, chiasson on line 2 and greening on 4th line

 

[Sarcasticus]

Here's the lines I'd like to see

Mac - Turris - Stone
Hoff - zib - Chiasson
Condra - legwand - Neil
Michalek - Lazar - Greening

Wier - Karlsson
Cowen - Ceci
Phillips - Gryba

But I doubt any of those will happen.

 

[UnHappyDude]

Is "hockey night in canada" a sportnet thing now? because this game is being broadcast on sportsnet not CBC?

 

[TheNewEra]

Sens play up to competition. Should be a good game.

 

[Six Assets]

Let's see how zibanejad plays now

 

[Rals]

That's bad, right?

Is there ever an I info graphic of where shots are taken?

If we were pushing shots to the walls, I'd feel better.

He tends to play really well after being out of the lineup so I am guessing he will be good for at least a goal tonight.

Did you watch last night game?

 

[sensfan14]

Why are the Leafs always on CBC? Weren't we supposed to be on CBC today?

It isn't so bad nowadays with regional broadcasts. When I was growing up in Wpg and following the Jets CBC would periodically opt to show Leafs games over Jets games when both were playing on Sat nights. There were no other televised options, so that meant listening on the radio. I grew up hating the Leafs and Toronto-centered broadcasting in every form.

 

[chipsens]

So Condra stays in...good. We'll need him on PK tonite, maybe shadow Stamkos?!

 

[Gil Gunderson]

That's bad, right?

It's been going on for 2-3 years now.
