Post-Game Talk: Sens @ DEVILS, FEB 3rd - Andy Hammond Special Edition

[BonkTastic]

Schneider is sneaky good

Devils are phenomenally lucky that they were able to secure a long-term replacement for Brodeur when they did, and while the pick they traded for him was valuable, I fully expect Schneider to have a better career than Bo Horvat will.

 

[Rodzilla]

Seriously disappointed in this season. 2 in a row. Pro sports is a cycle, but I hope we get better soon, this win 1 lose 1 thing is really starting to piss me off.

If we end up trading Methot I think I'll break something, especially if we keep Neil and Phillips. I have a lot of respect for them but you can't let players handle the way you manage your club. If you can't get anything for them, sure keep them, but if you can work out something that is ok for them and for us then do it. I hope Murray has the same idea.


And the Devils man, no words seriously, so ****ing boring yikes

I haven't watched a Sens vs Devils game in years. Always the same type of game, always.

How was Lazar? I noticed he got his 2nd goal, but then took 2 penalties?

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Yeah I think I'm for the first time since the Scabs obliteration genuiely bummed about the future of the team

The team is trending upwards so there is light at the end of the tunnel but the tunnel just seems to continuously get longer with Alfie and Spezza bailing. I can't imagine how bad the D would be if we can't keep Methot

The goal was as fluky a goal as you will ever see from a guy on a semi-breakaway.

hahah just watched it. Snows the goalie and tucks it in. I'm sure he meant to do that!

 

[OmniSens]

Forever .500

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I kinda doubt we would've gotten 2 points with Andy in nets. The guys just weren't battling out there.

Come on, take that softie out and it absolutely goes to OT.

 

[Senscore]

Come on, take that softie out and it absolutely goes to OT.

Yeah, and then maybe that Karlsson giveaway goes 5 hole on him.

 

[Sun God Nika]

Lazar played a great game even before he scored the goal I thought for the first time this season kid looks like he belongs.

Neil is just so damn frustrating, I just hate his speed. He is so slow down the rush, slow to get back when the play is going the other way. He can't hold the puck for ****, play just dies on his stick. I always felt bad for his linemates he is the pure example of a offensive blackhole just sucks the life out of you.

 

[Inf4mous0ne]

Come on, take that softie out and it absolutely goes to OT.

Maybe Andy lets in the Karlsson turnover that Lehner stopped? You can't just pick the goal and say Andy would have made that one save and then also assume he makes all the other saves...

Lazar played a great game even before he scored the goal I thought for the first time this season kid looks like he belongs.

Agreed, on his breakaway he actually looked like he had a burst of speed. Havent really seen that since the first few weeks of the season.

 

[God Says No]

So we lost 20 one goal games this year. There just isn't enough game breakers on this team to put us over the top in those one goal games.

One more game breaker and an improved PP and we win 10 of those I'd say

 

[WhiteLight*]

That would make us like the #1 team in the league . But yes . Agreed

 

[MiscBrah]

That would make us like the #1 team in the league . But yes . Agreed

30 wins, good for 8th (league wide), 69 points would put us 4th in the league.

Crazy that we've had that many 1 goal losses. I feel like if Methot had been back sooner we could have made the playoffs this year. too bad.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Playoffs are pretty unrealistic at this point so all I hope for is the progression of the younger guys and for Karlsson and Ryan to rack up the points.

 

[DrEasy]

So we lost 20 one goal games this year. There just isn't enough game breakers on this team to put us over the top in those one goal games.

Even the 6-3 game against Dallas is really a one-goal game.

 

[Super Cake]

Losing ****ing sucks.

I wish we could fast forward to the draft.

 

[maclean]

To have been expected.

 

[Super Cake]

Come on, take that softie out and it absolutely goes to OT.

I agree.

Now of course we can't be 100% sure that Andy would have saved that goal, but i do think Andy would have had better positioning on it than Lehner did.

 

[jason9090spezza]

And people say that "this" team got better from last year.

ok than lol

 

[Backpass]

Really bad lost by Ottawa and it was a boring game.
I found that Pageau played a good game, but I guess the coach didn't see it that way as he only spent a bit more then 9 minutes on the ice.

As for Lenher, he needs to stop allowing bad goal as it's killing use.

Oh look, the Dallas fan. Lost your way to the Stars forums again? tsk tsk

 

[Six Assets]

20 wins and 20 loses. Sens are the epitome of mediocre.

 

[SlapJack]

I haven't watched a Sens vs Devils game in years. Always the same type of game, always.

I wish I could say the same. Every game I know it's going to be a massive bore fest, but I still watch them. I hate the Jersey system, it kills all the entertaining bits that hockey has to offer.
