GAME DAY: Ottawa Senators @ Buffalo Sabres - 7:00pm - Fri. Oct. 4th, 2013

Uh-oh is alive and well. He's wearing #62 for some reason. Brutal giveaway there but, like I said, Anderson is playing well. Shots are 18-11, but I'm not sure which goalie has had to make harder saves. Miller's seeing a lot of rubber, but he's *seeing* a lot of rubber.

18-15 now and while I wouldn't say Buffalo is beginning to take over, they've now definitely had the better chances.

23 SOG but very few tough saves for Miller. And 16 shots given up is not too good. PMac won't be happy.

Spezza showing great poise in his debut as Captain Giggles

He's had some nice chances.

Spezza and Ryan have 7 and 5 SOG (respectively) through 40 minutes; Michalek had 1. Plasma failure? Line shuffling in the 3rd?

Yeah a bit rusty but this team looks really really good. You don't need to shuffle anything, they are perfect. Greening-Pageau-Condra has me wet.

That's super gross.

The Sens looked good. The top line had lots of chances but ran into a hot goalie. Miller was tremendous. If not for Karlsson's perfect shot, nothing was getting by him.

That was a lot of fun to watch. I loved Turris's line as well. Obviously, the Sens need to tighten up defensively, but they're gonna score a lot of goals this season.

The top line ended up with 15 shots. I don't care who had how many, that's a nice little shot count.

The Anderson/Karlsson show.

Couple of things to clean up.  Gryba looked pretty shaky at times. Pageau made a brutal decision on the icing at the end.  

Hopefully that was Gryba's training camp there.

Also appears Mac is a very solid addition to this team.

"I believe you have something of mine ..."

Haha, that's neat.

wished I could of watched this. great to see karlsson get the first one of the season.

How sweet is it that Anderson leads off with a SO, that Karlsson scored the GWG, and that Turris and Mac have chemistry right away?

Yeah Mac, Turris and Conacher seemed to have something going on.

Conacher is kind of Foligno+. He gets right in the middle of things, pisses people off, but he can score.

That line has excellent potential.
