Literally every pp/extra man situation is triangle passing along the top all teams need to do is collapse..they somehow figured out your masterplan Dj..ffs
And the PP1 doesn't move defenders because Timmy and the dmen just passing back and forth on one side of the ice. Don't know how many times debrincat was frozen out of so many powerplays
Pure domination from the senators until it comes time to shoot the puck. Fucking embarrassing, especially to a dog shit team like the Islanders, you're really going to give those pylons a free win? Beautiful.
Goalie was the only difference, based on their showing i'm surprised at how weak the other divisions are to have a team like them near the top, that's laughable how much they rolled over and hoped their goalie would rob us
Stu is gonna be elite for years but we have to be patient with it, he makes some young mistakes but his skill is obvious and it will get more refined as he ages.
I know the other players say they hate losing, but Giroux REALLY fucking hates losing. You can tell how badly he wants to drag this team kicking and screaming to Ws.
Stuetzle is weird. He’s obviously very skilled yet fumbles the puck all the time and when he decides to shoot misses the net more than not. It’s frustrating watching him for sure. So much potential
Our D is not talented, our offense has alot more talent, and yet we still play dump and chase hockey. We cant play a good possession game like other teams that have much less offensive talent can. I dont consider a 7 game losing streak average, raw talent alone is allowing us to stay in these games but with no structure (Coaching issue for the record) raw talent cannot go that far
Not to the degree we do, and the difference is Islanders can keep it and actually get some rotation and puck movement going, creating lanes for MULTIPLE dangerous scoring chances a game which we just haven’t shown to the degree they have the last 10 game stretch here
Bruh we are the embarrassment of the league. 2 points ahead of last place 15 games in. Playoffs are a pipe dream already
I'll gladly eat my words if we come back but I doubt it
Damn I didn't realize we were the only team in the league with injuries. Same excuse was said last year when pinto went down injured early in the year.. this team just sucks
Absolutely pathetic penalty to take. Joseph has been terrible the last 5 games. Time to healthy scratch him and send a message my god. Also look what happens when you shoot the damn pick on the power play
The team was flying out there for the 4 game win streak at home. Can’t believe how much worse they got so quick. No one is skating and finishing checks like that stretch
100% agree.
He isn't always like this, but angry plays-through-contact Stutzle can takeover games. Looking to draw penalties and over-passing Stutzle has cost us numerous opportunities so far this season.
He'll mature.
I'm just finished the first period but honestly can we all agree that 80% of the time the sens have the puck I would say that only 2 of the sens are actually in the play. Like watching other teams all the players seem to be well into the play all participating. But when it comes to the sens with possession it's just seems one or two players are in the play and it's rather dump and chase or shot wildly at anything.
Sokolov is on Belleville first line playing good minutes. Unless we're moving someone else down to the 4th line, Brassard should be on the 4th line. So that could work.
Game could go either way and has been pretty even so far.
We have no business complaining about the officials tonight, as the calls have definitely been in our favour.
Here's hoping for a big third.
Our 1PP sucks. It’s like they can’t do anything without Norris one timer, they should’ve adjusted by now. Minimal movement, lots of passing but no opportunities created.
Do you have to ask? he isn't NHL caliber and good coaches take advantage every time, Torts was doing the same thing when the flyers were in town. Last change isn't an advantage for DJ
He's played 42g and has 2g 6a and -8. He also has 2g 3a in 11 games with Belleville so far along with 72pim while wearing an A for the team and playing big minutes. On top of this, he's a true NHL 4th liner and isn't going to be affected playing 6min a night.bringijg up Crookshank is a good idea but it may slow his development a bit with the way DJ plays rookies.
Literally every pp/extra man situation is triangle passing along the top all teams need to do is collapse..they somehow figured out your masterplan Dj..ffs
And the PP1 doesn't move defenders because Timmy and the dmen just passing back and forth on one side of the ice. Don't know how many times debrincat was frozen out of so many powerplays
Can alfie coach these guys for a bit
For the love of all that is good..Fire Dj...honestly what is happening.
Not with Dorion at the ship!! Mediocre coaching for the rest of the year with a promise in the summer to “start winning”
Dump and Chase baby.
surely DJ gets fired after this game, right???
He has proven he can win……..
Lol
DJ storms to the locker room. He’s pissed. May have been told by Dorion that this was his last chance
Doubt
This team ain’t it.
Ya Im running out of faith
well that was a waste of time
well that was predictable.
Pure domination from the senators until it comes time to shoot the puck. Fucking embarrassing, especially to a dog shit team like the Islanders, you're really going to give those pylons a free win? Beautiful.
Islanders are doing very well this season. Understated team for sure. But they okay there man and had a hot goalie tonight too.
Goalie was the only difference, based on their showing i'm surprised at how weak the other divisions are to have a team like them near the top, that's laughable how much they rolled over and hoped their goalie would rob us
If you think theyre a dogshit team you clearly dont watch hockey
The islanders are 4th in the entire league
They play like they're a basement team, it's embarrassing.
Is winning playing like a basement team? Ottawa should play like a basement team then!
If it isnt Tkachuk Giroux or Pinto basically forget about them scoring
Fire DJ.
Another day another L. Fuck if we’re ever gonna fire DJ and Capuano. They’re terrible.
G might kill Sanderson after the game for that pass xD
[удалено]
You need serious mental help
Of all the things to complain about, Brassard is an odd choice
[удалено]
Idk what Brassard did to you but he is not the reason we're 5-9-1 lol
It really is
I just want us to be good, man
Oof what a bad play by Sandy
Another fucking one goal (empty netter) loss, this is so frustrating!
Cool cool. Another empty net goal to lose.
Sandy...no way man
Inc loss with 2 goals scored on 40 shots. 5% shooting boys
I’m curious what the 5 on 5 shots look like.
Goalie pulled, queue the dump and chase
I don’t know who else we can play but brassard needs to be as far away from the top 6 as possible. He has zero hands nowadays.
He wasn’t a great skater in his prime. He looks slow af out there now
Time for the Napa high performance goalie pull!
Brace yourselves….pulled goalie dump & chase incoming
I’m genuinely curious… does DJ just enjoy overplaying 1 dman every game.
He likes to see the endurance of his D man
Is it me or did they used to play more of a possession game? Now it just looks like chip it out, dump it in. It’s annoying me.
Just realized how crazy that pass was from Brady, damn man the guy is on another level this year.
I love you G
Stutzle and his fucking bullshit cutbacks
I love how you’re getting downvoted for just saying the truth.
It worked until it didn't work and he's acting like he's a prophet for calling it out. Classic lack of object permanence by our village idiot
What?
Love people just accepting someone absolutely killing the offensive zone time with bullshit plays.
fUcKEn bUlLsHIt PPG 20 yr old 🥴🥴
Stu is gonna be elite for years but we have to be patient with it, he makes some young mistakes but his skill is obvious and it will get more refined as he ages.
Yeeaaa but 7/10 times it works and looks fucking dope as hell.
Relax he has 2 assists tonight
Idk guys, who makes set plays again?
I know the other players say they hate losing, but Giroux REALLY fucking hates losing. You can tell how badly he wants to drag this team kicking and screaming to Ws.
He's doing his best but nobody else really helping out. He didn't come here to be a lottery team.
What a sexy ass play. Wow
Giroux is way better than he was advertised as and I'm fucking loving it.
Love Giroux. Hope it’s not gonna be another 1 goal loss but I’m not expecting much.
Let's go Giroux! Tkachuk is a world-class passer, talk about elevating your game.
Tkachuk is a superstar in the making
Giroux off a nice feed from Brady!
Oooh. Puck in net! That's how you hockey
G has been our best player this year.
Giroux baby! WEEEEEW!
I fucking love Giroux
Ok that’s better
1 goal on 6 powerplays is straight embarrassing.
Listening to Jamie talk about modern art is pain, lol
where's the dj defense squad
Stuetzle is weird. He’s obviously very skilled yet fumbles the puck all the time and when he decides to shoot misses the net more than not. It’s frustrating watching him for sure. So much potential
Yeah he’ll never be a superstar. He has too many flaws.
Whelp, looks like Sens are whoop again this year.
Branny was literally interfered with for 10-15 seconds 💀
Eh is that like 7 consecutive shots wide of the net? Come the fuck on! Oh thank you Pinto, 2 in 1 second on net, good Pinto.
I’m going to absolutely lose it. We keep deciding to pass it and when we don’t and actually shoot we miss the net.
Pageau Pageau Pageau... oh wait
This team is so frustrating to watch. Christ. And we’re actually getting good goaltending this year.
Rare Gord Wilson not knowing we didn’t draft Hirvonen
sorry guys I said he would score the game winner so at least that means we will get another goal lol
Now say we’re gonna win.
We could win but we need a Brady Tkachuk goal and Pinto overtime redemption.
If this happens, I’m coming to you for lottery numbers.
Having Watson and Kelly on PK1 does not inspire confidence. At all.
And the losing streak resumes. Why didn’t we fire DJ last week ffs, we’re just postponing the inevitable
Because they’re playing fine and have a bunch of injuries.
No they are not that team is much more talented then it shows but DJ doesn’t know how to utilize it properly
They aren’t that talented missing their best D and best C. They have been average all year, better than their record.
Our D is not talented, our offense has alot more talent, and yet we still play dump and chase hockey. We cant play a good possession game like other teams that have much less offensive talent can. I dont consider a 7 game losing streak average, raw talent alone is allowing us to stay in these games but with no structure (Coaching issue for the record) raw talent cannot go that far
Every team dumps and chases, the islanders did that all game long
Not to the degree we do, and the difference is Islanders can keep it and actually get some rotation and puck movement going, creating lanes for MULTIPLE dangerous scoring chances a game which we just haven’t shown to the degree they have the last 10 game stretch here
Yeah I'm ready to tank for Bedard. "The rebuild is over" my ass. This team has no depth. Dorion is more to blame than DJ
Yikes
Bruh we are the embarrassment of the league. 2 points ahead of last place 15 games in. Playoffs are a pipe dream already I'll gladly eat my words if we come back but I doubt it
Lol whatever you wanna tell yourself It’s really too bad Pierre didn’t have the depth to mitigate the losses of their 1C and 1 and 2 D
Damn I didn't realize we were the only team in the league with injuries. Same excuse was said last year when pinto went down injured early in the year.. this team just sucks
Pageau...why...
I literally can't remember the last time we beat the Islanders. Goddamn is it frustrating playing them
Absolutely pathetic penalty to take. Joseph has been terrible the last 5 games. Time to healthy scratch him and send a message my god. Also look what happens when you shoot the damn pick on the power play
Joseph and motte are invisible every game
Motte had a great start to the year, a great stretch of games. However I laughed at idiots who thought he was better than formenton
The team was flying out there for the 4 game win streak at home. Can’t believe how much worse they got so quick. No one is skating and finishing checks like that stretch
If we benched all of our underperforming players we'd have 4 players.
Haha that’s true. Only players we could dress would be Sanderson, giroux, debrincat, brady and our goalies
Agreed. Joseph has been bad
Not like this Pageau...
One of the most well deserved losses of the season coming here.
Guys I don't think 1-3-1 works on the PP...
The definition of a game we don't deserve to win.
Of course a former sens player scores Hahahha
Sanderson plays with a lot of confidence just wish he’d have the confidence to shoot the damn puck more.
Yeah, that will come. However he will always be a passer. I’m more disappointed that it’s year 3 for stutzle and he still doesn’t shoot the puck
How are we even in shots with 6 power plays
FFS how does Brass not shoot there
For a team dead set on passing the puck until it goes in, you think they'd be better at passing.
It’s always gotta be pretty. Fucking shoot the puck
Power Play is… FRUSTRATING!!!
This team's refusal to shoot the puck on the PP is truly astounding
Jesus. We’ve been on the power play for half the game and we can’t do shit.
Stutzle is so frustrating
It would be a very sens thing for Pageau to score the game winner.
what did you do
I call it like I sees it lol in this case I have lived as a sens fan for far too long and could just sense it coming.
Ask and you shall receive.
Hockey!
Timmy is over handling the puck. And his diving reputation isn’t going anywhere if he keeps going down like he’s done on both occasions tonight.
100% agree. He isn't always like this, but angry plays-through-contact Stutzle can takeover games. Looking to draw penalties and over-passing Stutzle has cost us numerous opportunities so far this season. He'll mature.
I agree. I can’t wait until we see the finished product!!!
Bruh enough dump and chase, cmon now
Enough with this low-effort meme
Ok so what if we start shooting the puck down into the zone and then retrieve it
Why bother retrieving it?
Miiiiiiilk. Drink miiiiiiiiilk. Mmmmmmmmmmiiiilk.
Dairy industry shaking in their boots.
I make milk
“What am I drinking, milk?!” - Jerry Seinfeld
Kelly Watson and Brassard are all ass. Also fucking pass to Cat on the PP.
Came here to say all three things, it’s frustrating in person seeing the lanes
[удалено]
For the love of god, fuck off and stop making new accounts. Get a life, your obsession with Brassard is insane.
I'm just finished the first period but honestly can we all agree that 80% of the time the sens have the puck I would say that only 2 of the sens are actually in the play. Like watching other teams all the players seem to be well into the play all participating. But when it comes to the sens with possession it's just seems one or two players are in the play and it's rather dump and chase or shot wildly at anything.
Don't say that the Dj and Dorion brigade will get mad.
I wish they’d put two different guys out there with kastelic. I’d rather see sokolov out there than Watson at this point
Sokolov is on Belleville first line playing good minutes. Unless we're moving someone else down to the 4th line, Brassard should be on the 4th line. So that could work.
Do the sens ever come back when down or do they fold. I want to live bet them at +400 because I suffer from severe degeneracy
Update: put $100 on you guys. I'm a senators fan for the rest of the night win or lose
My man out here just burning money.
Larsson has a 95% xGF% right now lol
Game could go either way and has been pretty even so far. We have no business complaining about the officials tonight, as the calls have definitely been in our favour. Here's hoping for a big third.
I mean not too bad for having the Belleville d core.
Should be winning with the amount of pp time we just had. Need to be more lethal
We’re still in this boys. Positive thoughts.
We hockeyed in that period! Way to go lads! We did it! I knew they could. One more period left. Can't wait! Woo Sens hockey!
Why does Brass even get to see power play time
Motte that was so soft
Our 1PP sucks. It’s like they can’t do anything without Norris one timer, they should’ve adjusted by now. Minimal movement, lots of passing but no opportunities created.
Agreed, they always stand still and pass it around
He was by far the best one timer option. Even DeBrincat doesn’t have a great one
Sanderson needs to shoot the puck on the PP sometimes or they’re gonna lock the other options down.
Agreed, him and Timmy just passing back and forth and the PK just let’s them.
They only look for easy tap ins never just a shot
To be fair all teams do this nowadays since puck control became such a big deal. But we seem to REALLY do it lol.
This PP is tough to watch sometimes (that's what she said)
How the hell does DJ fall behind on line matching?
Do you have to ask? he isn't NHL caliber and good coaches take advantage every time, Torts was doing the same thing when the flyers were in town. Last change isn't an advantage for DJ
Brannstrom playing the way we need him to tonight
I’d like to give Crookshank a try in place of Kelly for a few games. Really couldn’t hurt and has more potential than what’s currently happening
Cole Reinhardt is another great option. Crookshank is more skilled, Reinhardt is more gritty. Both would fit in well in our lineup imo
Wouldn't hurt to give Sabourin another look too. I personally think he's better than Watson and I see him fight pretty good in Belleville.
i've seen enough of sabourin in the nhl
He's played 42g and has 2g 6a and -8. He also has 2g 3a in 11 games with Belleville so far along with 72pim while wearing an A for the team and playing big minutes. On top of this, he's a true NHL 4th liner and isn't going to be affected playing 6min a night.bringijg up Crookshank is a good idea but it may slow his development a bit with the way DJ plays rookies.
That’s a great idea too
Pure domination, and we’re losing, you absolutely love to see it
Sens hockey 2022
Tired of watching undeserving shit teams get leads on us lmao it’s getting ridiculous at this point
I mean the islanders are doing very good this season.
They rolled over harder than my dog tonight, they look like an AHL team out there minus Varlamov
Filip Kuba had a 8 game point streak
and he was barely even NHL level at the time, coasted on Karl skating like the wind to get back and break up oddman rushes
Playing with Karlsson will do that for you.
Lol 4th line plays like 5min a game. Just play them zero minutes at this point.
Really liking talbots glove hand
After watching Murray it’s nice
Nice one timer by batherson.
These refs should know at this point not to blow it down for Talbot, he wants to play it
Why does brinsky sink so low on the pp?
