Missed the third period, anyone want to fill me in or did we suck as much as we did in the first 2?

Thank god Lebda is in the lineup to bail out Lehner

Speaking as someone who was at the game, we sucked for about the first 50 minutes, and picked it up a bit (not saying much) for the last 5 - 10 .

So I missed the good part. What happened on their goal?

 

[Pancakes Pancakes]

Reacting after 1 game = panic trade.

Didn't check to see if anyone said this but it's not just one game, Sens have won only 1 of their last 5.

Karlsson giveaway trying to chip it out of the defensive zone along the boards. Jets intercept get in front of Bishop, fire a shot and redirect over Bishop's glove. Game.

coincidentally that's about when spezza went down. anyone heard from mak if he still thinks we don't need spezza?

i hope latendresse is not hurt badly because we could use someone in the top 6 right about now. zib was pretty invisible in this game. but to his defense a lot of guys did as well.

What I found today was too much east west play and not enough north south from the Senators. It seemed like they were always being pushed to the outside instead of just making room for themselves on the inside.

Karlsson threads must be fun right now...

Hmmm Carrie Underwood is performing in Hershey

 

[MainDotC]

4-3 Hershey to start the 3rd. Lehner still in net...

They should put Cannone in net

Yeah but that's not taking into account how we've played. Did you watch last game were we lost in overtime?

And we're 5th in the east so although things aren't perfect its not terrible yet.

 

[MainDotC]

Cannone is solid

 

[QuattroFTW]

We're too soft on the puck and I find are always looking for the seam pass instead of taking the shot. Our offense has some positives but having only one 1 in the last 5 (thanks to pancakes for pointing that out) means that there's something we're not doing right. If we are scoring goals we're not protecting the lead and playing good defensive hockey. I understand that we're in a bit of a rebuild and are missing some key players, but if missing Spez and Cowen mean we can't play consistent hockey then there's a bit of a problem.

How we've played? Im not ringing the panic button, but saying its only one game is certainly mischaracterizing it. You dont get points for playing well. Results matter, and those have not been on the Sens side of late. Its not like im pointing out 5 games out 40 the team has played, this is 5 of 12. For all intensive purposes, they are an .500 team at this point. And thats with Anderson playing lights out.

If you take into account our overall level of play it should be something to be worried about. We're not playing well...and it's against some of the worst teams in the league. We have won 3 of the last 7 now? (Washington, Montreal and Buffalo) but we didn't deserve to win against Washington as we were terrible, and even the Buffalo game we won wasn't great. Literally in the last 7 games we've only looked good in one and that was on the special teams almost the whole game.

There's no question that this team is trending downwards since we lost Spezza and it will get worse before it gets better if nothing is done to address that situation (just ****ing offersheet ROR).

Go to bed all of you

Woah. Just started watching a torrent of the game, this is what one of the commentators said right at the beginning:

"Looking at both those goalie's save percentages, you would think that this will be a very high scoring hockey game. Which means it'll probably be a 1-0 game at the end of the day."

Not sure what you mean. We lost 1 - 0, we didn't score a goal.
