Pre-Game Talk: Wings @ SENS, Saturday 1:00pm (afternoon game)

[bert]

Bit worried given the teams track record of letting former players have big nights.

Bit excited given the teams track record of scoring 5+ goals on their opponents.

6-5 win incoming

I'd feel alot better about it if Zub was healthy given they're at home and have last change.

I used to be totally indifferent to the Wangs, but ever since the DeBrincat trade proposal threads/and subsequent deal, I've come to despise their fans. Also, f*** the Illitch family.

All of this. I've never been one to boo but I can't remember a less likeable player here that has scorned the franchise. Lack of effort was sad. What a pre Madonna.

50/50 game, both Ottawa and Detroit in great form.

I look at Detroit’s roster and it’s pretty meh?

Take the detour

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

Take the detour

This is what we should have connecting into the CTC parking lot. All problems solved right there.

I was in Houston recently... it's insane the amount of $$$ they spent on infrastructure in a state with no taxes.

 

[Icelevel]

Shut their top line down and it’s over fast.
This shouldn’t be a tough one. Give them a good lesson. They are no match for us.

 

[Mingus Dew]

Looks like he is leading the league in points, second in goals. Nice for Detroit to get him for a mid to late 1st and Kubalik, who may have to be moved out to get under the cap.

He's clearly happy as a clam playing back home. Dude had 0 desire to be in Ottawa and it showed.

Bad trade obviously. Is what it is though - let's just beat them.

"Infrastructure" meaning endless highways to nowhere like most of the cities down here. Some public transpo would be nice.

Detroit vs Ottawa is a huge game for both teams. Detroit added a lot of depth with FA signings. They'll want to show Ottawa they aren't softer than butter anymore after their last 2 embarrassing games vs. the Sens.

DeBrincat helps them for sure, although we aren't hurt by losing him, as Tarasenko is a fine replacement. Plus, he'd be on a $9 mil cap hit, which would kill the Sens, and would be soon to be lost as UFA. We should have never acquired him for Korchinski. The trade sure helped the Cat, as if on Ottawa, he'd be 2nd line and 2nd PP unit. I hope he doesn't get booed much, as he never asked to come here, but sports fans are sports fans.

Detroit fans will wake up to the fact that they blew it by drafting Mason Raymond over Jake Sanderson. Raymond is a decent 2nd liner, but nowhere close to Jake.

 

[Crosside]

No Zub and Chabot on the ice this morning

No Zub and Chabot on the ice this morning

Zub probably out but Hamonic can move up with Sanderson. they are fine together. I think Chabot will play.

 

[BradyTkachucky]

MArtin Havlat?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

 

[PatrickEaves]

DeepL translation:

Artem Zub will not play tomorrow.

He could return to the lineup on Tuesday against the Buffalo Sabres.

A defenseman will be recalled from Belleville.

 

[Back in Black]

Almost 25 hours to gO...

 

[SensHulk]

Please continue to beat the snot out of them like we did last season…thanks!

Never asked to be traded but was lazy af on the backcheck while being paid 6,4 MM$
6,4$ MM$...


Also its Lucas Raymond not Mason

 

[Icelevel]

Just wait till you see Sanderson standing between you and a goal.

 

[dumbdick]

I dont know where you found this, but i desperately want to see one featuring each of the other 30 teams.

 

[dumbdick]

You know your team is playing exciting hockey when you start counting down the hours to the next game a whole day early.

Tabarnouche...

 

[robsenz]

Never had anything out for Detroit, but I just want Ottawa to absolutely smash them like they did last season tomorrow. Cat got killed by Matthew once, Brady would send him to another dimension if he made contact like that on him.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Is it wrong that more than 51% of me wants Forsberg to get the nod?

He's been the better tender, so no. I say the same. He was great last game. Korpisalo also looked much better in game 2 than his 1st, but imo Forsberg has looked better.

 

[KingAlfie11]

Let's goooo Sens!!! If we play like we know we can we got this. Ans also the boys need to set the tone in first 10 minutes and sore the first goal.

 

[aragorn]

Stay out of the box, Detroit's powerplay has been deadly lately.

So has ours, but yea, cut down on penalties, they did a good job of that against Wash for the most part.

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Love my 10am games here on the West Coast. Nothin like waking up just before game time, pouring some coffee, and sitting down for some hockey.
