That was only 4. Is it my fault that there's nobody here for 10 minutes? Shouldn't be hard to top that.

This is one.

So PMacdidn't say anything about the possible trade brewing when interviewed on the pre-game show. Could be because the interview took place early in the day before this came out. Or could be because the TSN1200 Brew Crew don't ever ask questions that haven't been pre-approved by Team Management.

Oh, forgot to add that that was two.

And this is three.

What's the over/under on Regin getting injured? 12 games? 15? The second period?

That's four.

Go Sens Go!!!

#Lehnertime

#Lehnsanity

That's five.

It'll be odd seeing Matt Carkner not wearing home reds.

It'll be odd seeing Regin not wearing civvies or a hospital gown.

It'll be really odd seeing Phillips/Karlsson. And Spezza/Neil; at least Conacher shoots left so Spezza has someone to pass to.

I lost count. I think this is eight.

And to prove it's not just fluffing, gotta admit I'm intrigued by the Michalek-Smith-Zibanejad line. Maybe if Michalek is not looked upon to barrel through people as a wrecking ball he could actually try to be a sniper.

PMac did say that he would promise to keep the new lines intact until at least the first whistle.

Or because coaches don't talk about rumours lol

So, has anyone noticed how the Habs' former director of arena entertainment (or whatever his title was) transformed the in-game experience? We were supposed to have Monster Truck as the goal song -- was that his choice to change it to that stupid whimpy piece of wimpiness that they played during player introductions in the first home game?

Anyhow, they also just hired the former VP of ticket sales from MLSE. Really? Why hire someone who doesn't have to do anything to accomplish his job goals?

He wasn't even asked -- that was more my point.

And thanks for breaking up my streak. Almost made it to 10.

Why would anyone on the Sens talk about (or even know about)a Twiter rumour?

NEELY wrote:Scoring first will be huge, Lehner needs to make saves and they need to be early.

Based on how Lehner has played and based on his stats it's the goal support that's required and there should be no worries about Lehner's game. Scoring first sure would be nice though. They didn't score first in the Blackhawks game and managed to find themselves up 4-2 before they handed the game over to Chicago.

A good journalist would ask. This is more legit than a twitter rumour. The guy has credibility.

Well this new lineup has given up 13 shots in the first 13 minutes. Good thing Lehner came to play.

ZBad with a cannon and Condra with his first. 2-0 Sens.
