Pre-Game Talk: Sens vs Kings Wed Oct. 9th 10:30 PM EDT

[NyQuil]

SDC: The only 13th forward that goes from being scratched to playing on the 1st line against top competition.

Go figure.

Ironically, it's the best place for him.

 

[Countdown0]

I personally think that Zibanejad would be better off is Spezza's spot.... just saying.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Ironically, it's the best place for him.

Oh I agree. I was being ironic myself.

 

[God Says No]

Lineup according to senschirp:

Michalek-Da Costa- Ryan
MacArthur-Turris-Conacher
Greening-Smith-Neil
Kassian-Pageau-Condra

Methot-Karlsson
Cowen-Wiercioch
Phillips-Corvo

I'd switch Greening and Kassian. It's not like Kassian will be dragging Neil and Smith down much.

Agreed.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I'd switch Greening and Kassian. It's not like Kassian will be dragging Neil and Smith down much.

Agreed X 2.

Another strange decision by the boss imo.

 

[Super Cake]

This is what the ottawa senators page at nhl.com is projecting our lineups to be:

Michalek - Da Costa - Ryan
MacArthur - Turris - Conacher
Greening - Pageau - Condra
Kassian - Smith - Neil

Defence
Karlsson - Methot
Cowen - Wiercioch
Phillips - Corvo

Goaltenders
Anderson
Lehner

 

[Do Make Say Think]

I hope I get to see what everyone saw in SDC when he centered the top line in the preseason because I didn't see much


and I really like SDC

 

[FolignoQuantumLeap]

I'd switch Greening and Kassian. It's not like Kassian will be dragging Neil and Smith down much.

Greening has been doing enough of his own dragging down. Smith and Greening are such a terrible combination. Such slow decision making and lack of awareness where the other is in the D zone.

 

[The King of Town]

Oh I agree. I was being ironic myself.

Damn hipsters.

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Our bottom two lines.....I've never seen less finish in my entire life.

 

[UnHappyDude]

Here is the real question boys:

If SDC lights it up tonight and that top line produces, will they put Spezza back in for the next game?

Can't fix what isn't broken.

Spezza will be in with Kassian and Neil.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Damn hipsters.

I love my wool toque.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

WHY THE ********* IS KASSIAN ON THE 4TH LINE MAN. I'm raging right now.

 

[HavlatMach9]

WHY THE ********* IS KASSIAN ON THE 4TH LINE MAN. I'm raging right now.

Wouldn't it be illegal to start with 11 forwards?

 

[KarlssonMarx]

Condra/Pageau is our new Kelly/Vermette and it's pretty awesome.

 

[Milan the God*]

Condra/Pageau is our new Kelly/Vermette and it's pretty awesome.

Kelly's nickname was Stone Hands.

What would Condra's be?

 

[PierresGabriels]

Kelly's nickname was Stone Hands.

What would Condra's be?

"Sharpshooter"

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Dont worry guys we have Quick's weakness, Erik "Open Net" Condra.

 

[Topside]

Our bottom two lines.....I've never seen less finish in my entire life.

Traditionally, the team is more Swedish than Finnish.
