GAME DAY: Pittsburgh Penguins @ Ottawa Senators - 7:30pm ET - Mon. Apr. 22nd, 2013

Just win.

This is as close to a must win as it gets in my books. Anderson has to be better....if he plays tomorrow.

That was the first bad game by Andy .... Since the first loss to the Leafs.

Seriously though. Sens need this one.

I'll gladly take a point and a Jets loss.

It's game day, do you know where your right-hand-shooting, Norris winning, mustache-growing (not so much) defenseman is?

The B-Sens are set to begin their first round of playoffs against the Wilkes-Barry-Scranton Penguins, while the big clubs battle it out in Ottawa. The Penguins have clinched all they could clinch and are plying on the road, so most of their star players are either resting or recuperating.

Penguins are still without injured stars Crosby, Malkin, Neal and Martin tonight. Kris Letang may also miss due to illness.

Matt Kassian channeling a little inner Jules Winnfield?

“He has a history,” said Kassian. “To use a Bible quote, ‘A man doesn’t know what a man knows, but the Lord looks at the heart.’ I’m pretty sure between Matt Cooke and Jesus they are the only ones who know what was going through his head.

Win tonight and they are in and they probably avoid the Pens in the first round as well, I would guess they end up in 6th if they go 500 this week... personally I believe they will win 3 of 4 at least.

I would guess Benoit comes in for Wiercioch tonight as well. Wiercioch may need a game or two off at this point, he's struggling and has been very ineffective the last couple of weeks. When Karlsson comes back, you can bet that's who is coming out as well.

Hopefully the Sens clinch tonight, would make the next few games very easy to watch and hopefully play for the Sens.

I'd like to give Gonchar a couple of games off as well. He had a helluva March, but April has been difficult for him.

Oh, if they clinch tonight Gonchar and Phillips both see maybe 1 game this week, I would guess Methot may come out for a game or two as well. You can bet Lundin and Benoit draw back in if and when they clinch.

In order to clinch tonight, they need a win and a Jets regulation loss.

GO SENS GO!!!

GO SABRES GO!!!

Jets won't win both of the game tonight and tomorrow... I can't wait to watch that Jets/Caps game simply from a hockey fan standpoint. That will be game 7 for the Jets.
