That HBO show is pretty sweet, hopefully if the Sens-Leafs get a heritage classic, HBO will do one with the Sens in it. I don't think it'll happen, but it would be sweet. Maybe if Melnyk cleans house of Murray and Clouston, they can do one of a team's quick rebuild, and have a few seasons of it. It would be amazing, and help grow the fan base! But again, would never happen.

"Giggles" and Murray's lisp -- HBO may pass.

GO SENS GO!!!!!!!!!



i'm not placing any bets

The feeling I have is that we are fully capable of beating them. Unfortunately the same can be said for almost 30 of the first 34 games.

Assuming 92 points needed to enter post-season (possibly lower this year due to unseasonably high suckage in the East) the Sens need 60 points in 48 games. That's something like a 27-15-6 record (the 6 OT losses being an extrapolation of the 4 they've had through the first 34 games).

Yup, just like last year, we may need a nice, long streak to get us back on track. And to think, we *laughed* at the analysts who pointed to that streak as the reason for not expecting the Sens to finish near last year's position.

Just a fair warning to you if you decide to watch the Caps-Pens one, you should wear headphones. They swear like sailors in that show. Boudreau has this expletive filled tirade on the Caps between periods. It's definitely interesting to see everything especially the attitudes between a team on a long winning streak and one on a long losing streak.

You can watch it on Youtube, both HBOSports and NHL Video have the entire first episode.

Let's get it on!

Oh, it's ON!

great stream for those who need it......

2-0 Ottawa after one period, but Washington is coming on a little more. Crossing my fingers, but if Washington has a period tonight like they did against Thomas in the third, it could be HUGE trouble for the sens.

Bingo Sens win 3-2 over the Rochester Americans. Greening extending his goal streak to 3 games, with 4 goals in that span (1 tonight).

Lehner with the win with 31 saves off 33 shots. Wiercioch fought someone. Butler was pointless, but a plus 1.

Damn, is Gonchar ever slow... And I think Kuba drove his own face into the ice.

And here comes the letdown courtesy of Phillips and gonchar

wow caps coach talks to the refs 2 successive powerplays usually when ottawa talks to the ref the opposing teams get the powerplays

at least the sens are able to help otther teams get out of their funks

Phillips made the mistake, and should be blamed for the goal. But Elliott isn't completely innocent either. He really should have had it. Pathetic that he let it go in.

I agree...weak goal for ells. Now 3-2 for Washington with the token parade to the penalty box

What happened? I go away when it's 2-zip to get the girls ready for bed, come back and it's 3-2 Sens?

This team is fucking ridiculous.

It was ugly! A collapse of Senators proportions!
