They kept Crysby off the scoresheet. Gotta count for something. Or was that an even game since he's come back? He seemed to be doing a Star Trek thing there for a while.

The craps are due big time....and sens traditionally suck at washington. I just hope they can get it to OT

Philips played too much, on the 3rd Dallas goal he and Karlsson were completely outmuscled.

Didn't help that Mac had Filatov and Spezza out there. Filatov because he isn't ready for that yet and Spezza because he had a poor game. Bah...

Otherwise I thought the Sens played an excellent road game, really deserved a better fate. Puts the pressure on vs Washington a little more than it should.

This game was tough because I thought we played a good road game and were going to get rewarded but then it slipped away. Hopefully the players can remember they've done this to some others a few times, learn from it, and move on in Washington.

I also think 'disney on ice' might have been the real Sens killer in this game. I know it's cliched to complain about the ice, but it really looked bad. Michalek was able to bat the bouncing puck in for his goal, but a lot of the Sens players seemed to have trouble adjusting - particularly Spezza and Rundblad who couldn't control the puck the way they wanted, but kept trying shift after shift. Hard to dance in the mud, boys.

YOu can look at it this way too, no way should they have won that game in Winnipeg.

Very true, but we should have at least gotten a point last night.

Sometimes we'll win games we shouldn't.

Sometimes we'll lose games that we should have won.

And sometimes my Donkey will burn after eating jalapenos. You take the good with the bad with this team. NEXT!

NO! We should be winning every single game. Anything less is unacceptable.
