But for what reason?

Yeah, I've never seen anything about this rumour other than the occasional post on a message board.

Maybe Neil and Spezza will finally go at it and settle the whole "sleeping with his wife" thing.

Tell us more... 8)

It's a rumour that's always been out there... that Spezza slept with Chirs Neil's wife... but who knows if it's true or not... one of the issues that apparently contributed to the "split room" last year... if it's true that is.

I have heard the same thing. It would explain a lot. Maybe Spezza is making the pitch for Neil to stay so he can hit that again. :^^^:

sweet, I always just assume there is no sens hockey on sundays. Happy there will be something to watch tonight.

Hey Shabbs, see what you started with the Spezza-Neil "Desperate Hockey Wives" thing...LOL

Makes for fun discussion on a lazy Sunday...

FWIW, I heard it via the broken telephone through a few guys who had "inside sources" so take that for what it's worth. Same guys talked about Redden's coke habit.

Mike Eastwood is on the pregame right now on Team 1200 and he suggested the Sens knew their season was done before they stepped on the ice last night...therefore more than a few passengers. He said he's experienced that on a number on the teams he played on. A brutally honest view on his part.

He says Clouston's biggest challenge will be to get the guys up for the rest of the games.

Well, if they pack it in that easy and won't play for pride... then boo on them and Murray should be paying real close attention to who and who's not putting in the effort.

anyone know where the game is being played online perchace?

foligno scores his 17th

who woulda thought that Foligno would get 20 in his second season?

Its not written in stone yet, but its looking pretty damn likely. Here's hoping he keeps getting better and becomes the second line scorer that the Sens so badly need.

that would be awesome he is definitely the type of player we need hard working gritty and can still score

Especially with the way we started this season.

I'll admit I'd previously half-dismissed Foligno as being a jack of all trades-type third liner. He didn't seem to have the skill to beat players with finesse, the bulk to beat players with power, or the speed to blow past players.

But hopefully all of that will come in time.

i think he does have power and and times shows the finesse he isnt killing anyone with speed but i think he can definately become the 2nd liner we need

they changed the goal to shannons apparently foligno never touched it

I m slowly falling asleep

Yeah looked like that on the replay from the goalie cam. They took Bell's assist away too.

I still think Foligno will get 20
