Changement au programme. On dirait bien que Guillaume Latendresse va jouer finalement. #Sens #LD

Yeah losing a game to your biggest rival isn't a big deal, especially when their bunghole fans invade your arena all the time. You do live in Ottawa right ?

That game was a flashback to 10 years ago.

As for us dominating them all I can say is LOL.

If you wanna handle that loss better I'd suggest not to give a crap. Leafs, Bruins or COlumbus, a win is a win, a loss is a loss.
Yeah they invade the building, it is what it is. If everyone stopped caring, so would LEafs fans, and they would be less obnoxious.

Erik Karlsson out there after morning skate for 3 on 3 play. He's obviously asked others to be physical on him. A lot of contact. He's close.

More good news.

Nope, it isn't a big deal because it's like 4% of the schedule. They outplayed the Leafs and Anderson had a very rare off night, it happens, oh well.

As for the Fans... Leaf fans jump on the bandwagon when they win and are nowhere to be found when they lose, can't control it and won't be able to for another 10 or so years.

Yeah not as easy as it sounds. it will irk every sens fan when especially the leafs enjoy so much success in Ottawa. I cannot get over why they find a way to lose to the leafs, why is it that anderson decides to have his first terrible game against the leafs, why why why. It pisses me off to no end. I knew 100% the sens were going to lose that game and was desperately hoping to be wrong. Why? Sens are for some dumb reason a creature of habit, be it conicnidence or not (see pattern of wins/loss vs leafs at home the last 3 seasons).

This franchise man, they've done some amazing things but the two things that I can still not get over is 1) unable to win a game 7, 2) unable to own the leafs at home (I'm convinced the crowd plays a factor)

We have one of the worst crowds in the NHL. Underwhelming, quiet as Diddle, and very rarely helps the team getting into some kind of momentum.
It's like we go to games scared of the outcome instead of crying out loud to support the team. Like a country club going to watch a Heavy metal concert.
Until that thing changes and until we outnumber and outscream Leafs or Habs fans, we don't deserve to whine. SO in the meantime, I just decide to not give a Diddle and focus on winning.

This is Sens fans your talking about. When things are high they're winning the Cup, when things are low we're missing the playoffs and all hoe is lost.

Saturday wasn't even that low. They didn't have a great season against the Leafs or Bruins, oh well, move on. It happens. Tough to play games other teams really get up for when you have your two most offensive dynamic players out. Win tonight and it's basically forgotten.
