Ottawa Senators @ Tampa Bay Lightning

At least COL is winning

Another 2-1 win!! Just think if we had goaltending all year, we would probably be looking at a draft position around 10th rather than our potential top 3 pick.

This was with our Dung goalie though haha. So much luck for McRib in the 3rd lol.

The team came into training camp this year and thought "Oh great another year with Leclaire and Elliott in nets .. why bother trying ?"

Nevermind, Colorado sucks

Except we didn't. This win is NOTHING to be happy about. Colorado is losing again. We're getting passed in the standings by them FOR SURE.

Cussing Senators. Meaningless wins at the end of a Dung season like this are REALLY tough to swallow. Cussing Murray. If Anderson doesn't re-sign, he should be fired on that basis alone. Way to piss away a top pick.

Edmonton was winning 1-0, then gave up a goal with 25 seconds left, then Datsyuk scores in OT. Cussing Edmonton.

If Colorado does pass us, it won't be too turrible. We'll just have to settle for RNH!

With his name being mentioned as a replacement for Murray, it's kind of interesting. Raises the question as why the Sens broadcast would use a quote from a competitor team's Asst. Gm about a top 5 pick in the draft?

Well he used to be part of the Senators organization, so maybe that plays a part

Let me guess, he was good in the community?

Anyways, I'm not panicking yet til we actually lose 2nd last place but I'm not liking this. I mean what else could Tampa do to score a goal in the last period there? Isn't McElhinney supposed to suck balls? Diddle no pressure situations

So apparently Ottawa has 2 goaltenders that can stop the puck.

where the Diddle did C-Mac come from? the guy was great....

I agree with dash though. There's something refreshing about seeing a group of youngsters beat a cup contender in their own barn...I like it.

Now, to the part I don't like: saying goodbye to Lando

Who knows what happens. Ottawa will still be drafting 3rd and it's VERY possible Colorado finishes dead last. Edmonton will beat that team both times they play them. Col takes Larsson, Edm takes RNH, Ottawa takes Landeskog.

what about Flo rida?

Have you seen Edmonton lately? They blow as well. I think they still finish last by a HAIR as Colorado will beat them in of their H2H matchups.

I think Edmonton might consider Landeskog. He can play centre and they have been going Swedish lately as well. He is a guy they could really use as most of their forwards are smaller guys who aren't that gritty. Landeskog can give them that and then some.

They are still getting points and haven't seemed to pack it in. I don't think they pass The Panthers in all honesty. It will come down to the game they play in 2 weeks on the 2nd 1/2 of the back to back in Florida again. If Ottawa wins that one they will move pas Florida and if they lose they won't catch him.

So can Talyor Hall but they want a true center up the middle which would be RNH, also an Alberta kid which plays a factor for sure.

Actually, he's from Burnaby, BC. Like Joe Sakic (hence the endless comparisons).

My bad, ignorance is not an excuse on my part. Western boy then, haha.

Unfortunately, you are probably correct.
