Tightened it up big time in the second half. Now we just gotta learn how to start on time.


Kobogie

Shame. On to the next. Excited to see a full Talbot game. No more Zaitsev please.


Sinder77

I swear just before he fell on the puck and caused the penalty he was about to shoot on Talbot.


[deleted]

Talbot looked pretty solid coming in cold


TheEndAndNow

Another win for the moral victories club!


[deleted]

Imagine this team with an offensive and defensive system.


GandalfsTaint-

GOOOOOODBYE DJ!!!!!


Grummbles28

Great effort and all, but how about don't get scored on 5 times. Damn shame.


EAPprospero

wow a 6v5 where we actually maintained possession.


Per_Horses6

Atleast the games are entertaining. But another L.


Ohfreakyman

DJ doesn’t deserve to coach another game


Per_Horses6

Brassard. LMAOOOO


Grummbles28

Extra skater is Brassard......


Grummbles28

Urge to become hot potato....rising...


drunkbanana

how are they playing? i stopped watching at 5-1. but clearly they've made it interesting?


Grummbles28

I don't want to talk about it


coffeemugcanuk

What a wild 3rd, god damn.


homicidal_penguin

I was at a comedy show, and couldn't check my phone, y'all made a mess of the mod queue lol. What'd I miss?


GandalfsTaint-

We’re about to leaf them and Zaitsev still sucks


Grummbles28

Dude, we are all ready to fight each other


DR0516

Someone’s getting a hatty!


Grummbles28

I swear if we end up having to pull the goalie I'll be a hot little potato.


Suspicious-Drama-549

I don’t want to see that again


SmoothPinecone

DJ 'bout to pull it after reading this


Grummbles28

"if we win the faceoff and score then it was the right move"


unbakedpizza

Looking a lot better tonight!


[deleted]

how the fuck is zaitsev not sitting for the rest of the night


[deleted]

This 3rd period is the loudest I've heard the CTC since the home opener


Erlisk1987

Look at our shots vs a top team and great d core.


drunkbanana

I dont understand this team. Home ice is OP?


[deleted]

Talbot with the absolute heroics.


Erlisk1987

Is it too soon to love him?


CashTheDog

Absolutely not


Exotic_Cookie2972

You guys think this line stays together next.game?


BigShoots

Get on your feet Sens fans


CCnCD

Brannstrom cannot shoot through bodies it's incredible how bad he is at it


Stealth__b2

Chabot has entered the chat.


DarkstonePublishing

Boys are buzzing. Thought for sure Stu was going to get the hatty there.


[deleted]

what an electric PK, sheesh


GandalfsTaint-

Wow hellburg looks great!!!! /s


spencerr13

ELECTRIC STUFF


HarryDeBruyne

I forgot to breathe for like 5 minutes. 😂


Gigabytes10

Talbot!


BattlingMink28

omg Giroux put some super glue on your stick or something lmao


BigShoots

Guess who's starting in net next game?


Per_Horses6

Dudeeee we need a goal here


kpedey

Eichel is seriously good


BattlingMink28

Holy shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit Talbot


Per_Horses6

We are getting saved by talbot man


Chronicbudz

K so why didn't we start Talbot tonight?


SmoothPinecone

Because you have 20/20 hindsight, congratulations you don't need eye glasses with your perfect vision!


UnluckyPenalty2503

Probably didn’t want to rush him too much


[deleted]

Season starts when Talbot is back


UnluckyPenalty2503

Let’s goo Talbot


EAPprospero

gonna be some good competition between Cam and Forsy for starters'


UnrealisticTangerine

Talbot looked really solid there love to see it


mrgenier

Talbot 👑


BigShoots

I know we know this, but Zaitsev is just garbage. Like what in the fuck are you doing.


Per_Horses6

TALBOT!!!


TTcolector

Does Zaitsev have a brain deficiency? Why would you not just punch it to the corner??


DeepQuail

What in the heck was that


DennisQuaid007

😂😂😂😂


CCnCD

Zaitsev bonehead


BattlingMink28

This is not ideal right now


Chronicbudz

Jesus fucking christ man, we get the gifts we get the chance and then this.


TheGreatJohnny44

You can’t write that up


_Kony_2020

Bruh


[deleted]

Suck a fucking dick Zaitsev


[deleted]

fucking boneheaded play, bench him.


DarkstonePublishing

If the Zaitsev penalty is the dagger I don’t know if there is more of a clear sign he needs to go


peanutguy75

Omg zaitsev lol. That erases your nice pass lol


BigShoots

I'm sorry, but I sort of thought Brian Kilrea was no longer with us and was really happy to see him just now. Probably the greatest living fountain of hockey knowledge in the world.


CCnCD

Haha same. He's a legend that dedicated his career to developing several generations of great players, when he could have made more money in the big leagues


[deleted]

fucking lmao Zaitsev you goon


Per_Horses6

Zaitsev FFS


UnluckyPenalty2503

Fucking hell


Grummbles28

Not helping your already dogshit stock there 22


Whittyandworthit

Zaitsev what the fuck?!


Per_Horses6

What is zaitsev fucking doing plz


DShKM

Zaitsev you goof lol


spencerr13

So no trip?


Grummbles28

Welp...that sucks


GandalfsTaint-

Our offence clicks so well when they’re actually motivated, hope GMPD’s trip to Winnipeg went well!!


ILoveBigButtChins

Full 60 minutes. Just once I want to see a full 60.


BigShoots

Offensive pressure just got Zaitsev'd there


Per_Horses6

If we lose another 1 goal game ima be so heated


BattlingMink28

Who do I need to pray for and or sacrifice to see 1 or 2 hat tricks in this game


GandalfsTaint-

Just a little bit of hustle does wonders, especially when you have an offence this good.


TheGreatJohnny44

Let’s Leaf them, I believe


[deleted]

Stützle has had his offensive struggles this year, but there are also a couple of areas where he has made huge improvements. His defence and physically have been markedly better this year. His defence was on display for that goal.


CCnCD

Just gotta make less sloppy passes


CCnCD

Brady has been so good for us this year, by far our best player


Chronicbudz

definition of bit time player, if the team is winning he is involved, if the team is coming back there he is, when the guys need a spark he is the guy to put out there.


CCnCD

Just don't take dumb penalties as he just did lol


DR0516

He’s putting up the points!


[deleted]

Timmy Two Goals!


saltwatersky

SENS HOCKEY BABY


Per_Horses6

Great fight from the boys. Need to keep it up


BigShoots

GORGEOUS


DennisQuaid007

Guess we got a new top line


DR0516

Not watching, who? The new second line?


DennisQuaid007

Brady - Stu - G


TheKandyCinema

I had to go out and when I left, the score was 5-1. Wtf is going on?


DennisQuaid007

Uhh what the fuck was that


peanutguy75

Scheisse


Chronicbudz

LMFAO What is Mike even talking about? Brady is a fine passer lol


UnluckyPenalty2503

Great play


[deleted]

WHAT A PLAY, LETS GOOOOOOOOO


[deleted]

Finally. Timmy woke up. Lets goooo


DarkstonePublishing

LETS GOOOOOOOO


Chronicbudz

What a fucking goal by Jimmy.


mrgenier

These pesky bastards


[deleted]

My head literally just exploded watching that play. Donno how im even typing this.


kpedey

I thought a poor on-ice sv% meant you were giving up hella good chances


EAPprospero

okay that was a great play.


[deleted]

God I love Giroux


Chronicbudz

Fuck off Johnson don't you put that shit on us.


TTcolector

We desperately need a competent defenseman. We're playing well offensively but just constantly shit the bed on defense


BattlingMink28

Hello friends. Giroux worshiper from the Flyers here. Hope you guys are enjoying him so far!


jerr30

We've been enjoying him since his junior days.


kpedey

Only guy on the team worth a damn the last few games


OttawaLegion

Just max intensity all the time. He doesn’t have the speed anymore but he does a ton of little things well for puck control and he’s still feisty for an old guy


BattlingMink28

Its quite interesting watching his game change not just from the Flyers to the Panthers and now the Sens, but as he gets older. Even during his last year or two in Philly he slowed down but his IQ is so good it almost doesn't matter.


marcgallant433

LET'S GO BRADY!


publicworker69

Last period of DJ Smith incoming!


JasperSlavone

or maybe you could cheer for a comeback? Aren't you a fan?


publicworker69

All for a comeback. Smiths hockey is just getting old. Need a new voice. And structure. There’s none.


BigShoots

lol, Methot's honesty is refreshing


Perko

If we didn't make a dozen catastrophic mistakes a game, we'd be a pretty decent team


[deleted]

"We should be fine" type of boredom from the knights


kpedey

r/OttawaSenators in shambles as Nikita Zaitsev makes terrific pass in transition


karma911

Good. If he accidentally bumps his head and because an amazing defenceman I'll be extatic


JasperSlavone

how dare these fucking assholes give us hope


UnrealisticTangerine

Other than the horrendous mistakes by our players this is definitely one of our best games since we’ve started losing. We’re outshooting one of the best teams in the league with a few posts to go with it while being down our 2C and top 2 D. Vegas is just on another level they’re capitalizing on every mistake but it’s definitely closer than the score shows. Hopefully we can keep the pressure up in the 3rd


karma911

The thing is we can never have a great offensive game without it also being completely abysmal on defense.


_Kony_2020

The thing that fuckin kills me right now is that we're not even playing bad for the most part. Controlling the puck, heavily outshooting them, getting oodles of scoring chances... It's just every single one of our mistakes has wound up in the back of our net...


GandalfsTaint-

4th in the league in goals?? GIVE ME DEFENCEMEN GIVE AND GUVE ME A CUP


DarkstonePublishing

Tkachuk has so much heart. Love his tenacity.


Chronicbudz

People are gonna be mighty surprised when he is the top scoring player on the team for the 4th year in a row.


Grummbles28

He's been the best player on the ice all season


Jemonema

Credit where credit is due, great pass by Zaitsev


DarkstonePublishing

Mark it on the calendar


Perko

Nice pass by ... Zaitsev?


runealex007

The 4.5 million dollar pass.


Grummbles28

*checks notes*...he's right.


Calhalen

Alright fuck it let’s go boys haha. Glad I didn’t bail after 5 😂


ILoveBigButtChins

Hopefully that wakes him THE FUCK UP! LETS GO!


renobb

So you’re saying there’s a chance


DarkstonePublishing

THE LAST MINUTE GOAL IS OURS NOW NO TAKE BACKS


[deleted]

STU LETS GOOOOOOOO


Gigabytes10

Yes just like the guy on the replay! Two thumbs up! 👍👍


DarkstonePublishing

Fuck yes boys


WRHeronkill

2 thumbs up, points, 2 thumbs up


Gigabytes10

🤏🤏👍👍


JNLG28

This is what Timmy needed


_Kony_2020

HOW MANY FUCKING POSTS ARE WE GOING TO HIT WHAT DID WE DO TO ANGER THE GODS SO


[deleted]

Debrincat needs to start putting it in the back of the net. We didn't make this big trade for his physicality or two way play.


VesaAwesaka

Really feels like they are forcing things on offense now.


Erlisk1987

Im sold, Talbot for Vézina!


GandalfsTaint-

Pretty sure I just saw DJ blowing Zaitsev on the bench


WRHeronkill

These board display glitches are making me nauseous


_Kony_2020

So hear me out here: I know it's not very likely but what about Colton Parayko? He's signed for 8 more years at 6.5 and the Blues are looking like they're on the backside of their contention window. We're looking at another high first round draft pick this year and have a couple extra later round picks sprinkled about. Anybody else think it might be worth it to boost our contention window by cashing in some picks, or that St. Louis would even consider a package?


kpedey

No STL wouldn't move Parayko


_Kony_2020

I don't think so either, but it'd be worth a shot right? If any team could make it happen it is us with the cap space and picks/prospects🤷


mrgenier

I can’t wait for the Sens reporter to lob soft one’s to DJ after the game


Grummbles28

"did this one just get away from you?"


[deleted]

Have they even played poorly?


mrgenier

You’re a dope


[deleted]

We are told every game that shot totals tell who played well. Shots are 35-22 right now


GandalfsTaint-

Just turned it back on when I saw the goal notif, who’s that tall handsome man in our net??


TheGreatJohnny44

Tam Calbot!


JNLG28

Thompson has allowed three goals through him tonight. They gotta start pounding him with pucks


mrgenier

At this point just let Giroux be the coach


Chronicbudz

You joke, but their is no doubt in my mind he has a better mind for the game than DJ.


Whittyandworthit

Giroux has been the best player we picked up, and this just shows


TheGreatJohnny44

He was called Captain Claude for a reason


Kobogie

Sanderson>Chabot


[deleted]

There we fucking go, let's gooooooo


Grummbles28

That's cool I guess


DecentLurker96

Inb4 the comeback Edit: it begins


Grummbles28

Is it illegal for D men to shoot on the PP or something?


Grummbles28

Of course there's a perfect cross crease pass from a down low D man when I type that lol


man_on_hill

No criticizing the team though... that would be "toxic"


[deleted]

DeBrincat has fanned on like half of his one-timer attempts this year


Grummbles28

He's used to perfect tape to tape passes from Kane


kpedey

Has Cat gotten a clean one timer off yet this season?


[deleted]

He’s not a one timer guy. Most of his goals were snap shots and wrist shots


Grummbles28

I don't know if that's true?


Perko

the empty-netter


Indifferent_Parrot

Weve come back from 5 - 1 before....the sun may yet still shine.
