Pretty hard for us to have any sort of chemistry when Clouston changes the lineups all the time.

Ont he plus side, the sens have scored 3 goals in 3 consecutive games, receiving production from a variety of players. Small victories! RocknRoll

I wonder if having a full-lineup in practice has been the result of increased chemistry on lines?

No need to listen to anything they have to say anymore then, because they don't know what they're talking about.

I'm sure it's played a big part. Another thing that is having an effect is that if players are healthy enough to practice it means they're closer to 100% and closer to being able to play at a level that should bring the Sens some more success.

Not sure why our D was so far behind on the left side... but he was surrounded by Thrashers and made a bad decision. Dumping it in would have been a "safer" choice.


Mmh... He must have seen 3 players in front of him and thought there was enough room behind. I think the most stupid thing is going for the pass without even looking, when in fact there`s plenty of time to do so.
Perfect anticipation by the Thrashers also. Credit to them.

Honestly, I defend Spezza, and his tying goal got us a point, but there's no way I'd give him a star after that. And while I agree with Clouston that there were three mistakes on the play, his was, by far, the biggest.

This is what Spezza said about the play:

I haven’t made too many mistakes like that this year and really taken it out of my game, but I got caught up in wanting to make the play. It happens. As a player when you’re creative, sometimes it happens and I’ve just got to learn from it and move forward and learn from it.
