GDT: Sens @ 'Canes

Great stat from Mendes.  

Sens record against 4 biggest rivals TOR, MTL, DET & BOS: is 4-0-1 (outscored them 22-11). Against everyone else: 5-10-3 (outscored 62-45)

Throw in the two wins against Buffalo and Florida and the Sens have a 6-0-1 intra-Divisional record. By comparison, Boston is 8-2-0; Toronto is 3-2-0.

Lehner is IN.

Wow, good for Mac. Didn't think he'd go back to back with Lehner.

Anderson is no longer the sure fire #1... official. Thank God.

He needs to get back on track in practice, be cause we know he's good, but Lehners clearly better right now.

Yesterday was the beginning on an 8-2 stretch with Lehner. Watch.

Now the only questions are will Lehner keep it up? Will Anderson shut his trap and be a good teammate?

And no lineup changes.

Welcome back PMac.

I think they'll both be fine. Anderson's been around long enough to know the score. He knew he and his $3.2M cap hit weren't sticking around Ottawa for 2014-15, and he knows that given his current stats the Sens would do everything in their power to continue to give him chances to pull out of this slump. It's a compressed schedule so there'll be lots of chances. But he's done as the #1 in Ottawa.

Love this. Gotta keep the momentum going. Turning point on the season? It is time.

RELEASE THE LEHNER.

That's what got him traded for Brian Elliott.

If Lehner comes out today and plays unreal again, yah, I think this could be the point in the season they just go start rolling. You hope this far into the season Spezza starts to find a stride too. Based on his last game you gotta be a little hopeful, he's starting to find a little consistency.

I'm hoping PMac sees something happening with the team now, with Lehner between the pipes... who knows... gotta hope they start rolling and getting all their lines going. This would be a nice time to start. We're getting on in the season. Thankfully the East is a mess. Love Anderson but something just ain't right there... not sure what it is. Almost reminds me of his play before that eye operation. Then he was lights out after.

Is this on tv?
