GAME DAY: Ottawa Senators @ Chicago Blackhawks - 8:30pm ET - FRI. Jan. 7 2011

Is it bad that I want Elliott to continue with his bad play of late, tonight? I just would really like to see Lehner start tomorrow night to add a little excitement to the game. Just one game to see where's he at. If he gets blown out, no big deal, send him back down to the A so he can get a ton of starts down there. If he plays really well, then we will re-evaluate from there.

I went to the Carolina game with a Canes fan (yes, they do exist), and the Leafs game with a Leafs fan, all in the span of a couple days. I was wondering what god I pissed off to punish me like that.

Wow, that's gotta hurt. I was at the Carolina game too.
What makes some of the games I go to unbearable, besides the play on the ice, is behind us is 4 (count 'em 4) Habs fans who have half-season tickets to Sens games. Don't ask me why. They just sit there and boo Sens all night long. They aren't there every game I'm at (I have 1/2 season as well).. but most.

York on Team1200 tried to make a case for it, saying how Brodeur was sent to Elmira because they wanted him to get a start, so that's why it was Lehner who was brought up. But Lehner is the future of this organization and he's had a write-off type of season behind Brust; Brodeur is not the future of the franchise. Which of these two needs a start more?

Hey, at least those Habs fans are buying tickets. That's more than I can say for some Sens fans.

Remember the game tomorrow night is a Metro Four-Pak -- $99 for four tickets, four hotdogs, four drinks. Coupon code STAMKOS.

Also keep in mind that they are *yet again* playing back-to-back and traveling from Chicago to Ottawa. With all the snow falling. And it's an 8:30 start. Game won't be over until 11:30; they won't get on a plane until around 1AM. They'll arrive in Ottawa after 3AM. They won't get into bed until around 4AM. It'll be worse than the Leafs game.

If I buy the Metro Four-Pak, can I decline the ticket part?

Lehner needs to get a consistent set of starts going in the A... perhaps they could not recall Brodeur due to him being in the ECHL? Either way, Brust could have been pulled up and Lehner given the start for the BSens. I know everyone is excited and hopefully to see Lehner up with the big club, but it would seem his time is wasted up there getting no starts and "filling in" when needed.

I don't think the Sens actually have a contract with Brust yet...or at least, it doesn't show up on capgeek.com. That could be the reason.

Edit: Yeah, Wiki just confirmed it. He signed a contract with Bingo, not Ottawa.

Good point on the contract thing with Brust... so maybe Lehner was the only option.

Lehner has yet to arrive at the arena in Chicago...

Still no sign of Lehner... yikes...

stream anyone? mine not working?

I can't find one either... bah.

This one is working for me now.
