Post-Game Talk: SENS in Edmonton, Sat. 4:00 pm

[Super Cake]

We need to somehow bring his brother to Ottawa. What a duo that would be!

We don't have the assets to bring him in. Well maybe we don't but it will be something you don't want to give up.

 

[Six Assets]

hopefully tkachuk can get 20 goals

Should be pretty easy to get at least one more with 7 games left.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

To think we won this without the veteran presence of Zack Smith and Cody Ceci. Wow.

 

[senators101]

Jeez 27 min for Chabby

 

[Knave]

I feel happy for Craig Anderson, he really needed that and he's always been a good guy.

 

[aragorn]

To think we won this without the veteran presence of Zack Smith and Cody Ceci. Wow.

I'd take both those guys over Boedker, Balcers, Gibbons, Lindberg, Paajarvi & DeMello, even Jaros is having a tough time defensively sometimes, he falls as often as Tkachuk.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

The question isn't will we lose in OT, it's how long it will take.

Good one

 

[Knave]

The amazing thing about this is despite Jaros falling down constantly he manages to win puck battles unlike a certain guy whose jersey number ends in #74. I can't think of a puck battle he won. Or where there was a chance of getting picked off and he did not get picked off by an Oilers player.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Good one

You win some you lose some.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Yes to Boedker.
I'd keep everyone else over the other 2

He's also the only one with the balls to take on Lucic if he has too.

Only guy I wouldn't take over Smith is Boedker, and that's still stretching it.

Demelo is a better dman than Ceci, and Jaros will be better than Cody soon enough.

Hot take

 

[rfournier103]

Just saw the game winner.

Great goal, great win.

 

[aragorn]

Demelo is a better dman than Ceci, and Jaros will be better than Cody soon enough.

Then how is it that no matter who the coach is Ceci consistently gets more ice time than DeMello? And Smith consistently gets more ice time than the other guys that were mentioned? It's because they are the better players.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

He's also the only one with the balls to take on Lucic if he has too.

Lucic is an absolute non factor. He's not instilling fear in anyone on the ice anymore.

The only thing he's been fighting is the puck

 

[Viletho]

Demelo is pretty good. IMO we have to keep that guy. Maybe not as a top 4, but eventually as a bottom pairing dman he is perfect. Good on D, he has puck skill.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I'd venture a big reason why Boucher was canned was for playing Smith 20 minutes a night.

Same goes for Ceci.

 

[Slack]

Stating the obvious, but man Chabot is scary good.

Also, DeMelo > Ceci

 

[Sens]

Balcers has 9Pts in his last 19... he could finish the last 25 games at a 40-45 point pace

That’s promising heading into next season... a good off season and he might break out... can’t deny the dude has puck skills and his game is made for the new nhl

How did he look in this game by the way?

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

For those in attendance how was the fan support for the Sens at the arena?

Seemed like a decent show up. Not as good as previous years but probably for obvious reasons

I'm really liking him. Flashes of high skill and the effort seems to be there.

I think all our young guys are showing flashes of skill. But they all need to be stronger. Tkachuk. Balcers. Abramov. They need to chow down some serious groceries this summer and hit the gym hard
