Pre-Game Talk: SENS in the little Apple (Toronto), Wednesday night 7pm

[Golden_Jet]

I don't think I've ever seen this group of players more confident, happy and cheerful going into a game, and I genuinely don't know how to interpret and what to think of it.
Is it just the usual 'fake it until you make it', or is it similar to a guy who is going to jump off a cliff and whose last action is to hysterically laugh about anything and himself?

Let's find out today at 1pm!

Don't want to risk any more injuries.

I hope Zub is cleared to play

I don't think they've gotten out of the "rebuilding" emotional phase as they are apparently just happy to be playing regardless of results. Lack of accountability will do that.

7-5 soul crushing loss incoming. DJ somehow keeps his job.

Plus they're guaranteed not to get booed tonight.

What ever Gord asks, DJ has the answers.. Amazing what can happen

A. Sounds like he’s coaching 5 years ago

B. Gross question was definitely like “safe to say confidence can build by playing the right way coach?

Sens 5 Leafs 2 book it!

Go Sens Go!

The thing with slumps is that usually teams start playing better towards the end even when they lose. Our last two games have been like the worst two games of the season when you don't look at the score. Throw the Pittsburgh game in there too.

 

[HSF]

please just beat Toronto

This peewee shit...the fans hold this team accountable 100x more than this coaching staff ever will.

My gut says we're going to play well, but lose tonight (maybe in OT), then win the next two before Sweden.

 

[SweSensFan]

I could see a really strong game from an Ottawa team who comes out really motivated and takes home two points in a tight game.

I could also see a disaster, Mathews hattrick, Reeves destroying and injuring one of our top players followed by Brady and Reeves both being ejected after a big fight. Mcewen being beat up by Domi and Toronto taking a dominant victory.

Praying for the first scenario!

Heatherington/Matinpalo/Guenette

Any of those guys over jbd I’d say. It’s time to move on from him and give someone else a chance. Jbd should have no future here.

Each one more mediocre than the next. Pick your poison I guess

 

[Masterplan]

What you are going to see is: the Leafs jump out to a 4-0 first period, then in the 2nd the Sens will get two goals only to give up a bad power play goal with a minute left, then we'll make it 5-4 only to give up two empty netters for a 7-5L, and you'll like it.

DJ telling us how hard the guys are working will be the cherry on top.

You forgot the adversity part

 

[DrEasy]

The one good thing about the game today is that since we're playing the Leafs, the game will be shown everywhere, even on the Weather Channel.

I think it’s time to give other guys like those 3 more of an opportunity. Jbd isn’t helping and we need help. Even a tiny little spark of something here and there is fine.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

They are going to bring it tonight against the Leafs. Big game feel.
