Chris Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 If they skate hard on the forecheck, back chaeck and stay out of the box they will be fine. They played that way most of the year and were tough to beat most nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 It sounds like Dan O'Rourke and Mike Leggo are the refs for tonight. O'Rourke in particular has a bit of history with Ottawa, he is to Senator fans what Chris Lee is to Montreal fans. http://www.senatorsextra.com/main/referee-orourke-rocking-from-the-criticism Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurdBurglar Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 This game will set the tone for the series. Ottawa have some of their injured guys back, ones that "experts" said would lead Ottawa to a better position in the post season. We all know what injuries can do to a team, so taking this game lightly will be a huge mistake. That being said, this series and this game is going to be determined by goaltending. As much as I hate to say it, it depends on if Price can be the Price we all know he can be. Lastly, in the words of PK Subban; the whole team "needs to play like Gallagher." Sums it up pretty well. Wonder how Gionta feels about that, seeing as before this season he was that guy. Just read lolEklund's prediction of the series, point it out for this little gem of a line; "I don't know why, but a hunch that Lars Ellers will be a factor in this series." Hasn't he been a factor all season? What would change now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

illWill Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I put a picture of a real life Senator, who lives and works in Ottawa. The worst Senator I could think of. If you ask Mike Duffy, he lives in Prince Edward Island. It was a big controversy here recently. Basically he has a cottage here that he never is at and claimed it is his full time residency in order to collect money for living away from home. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mike_Duffy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Machine of Loving Grace Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Is he in Cooperstown? No, I'm just saying The only other great baseball/hockey connections in my mind are Tom Glavine being drafted by the LA Kings higher than Brett Hull and Luc Robitaille (and saying he'd trade a World Series win to get his name on the Cup) and Ferguson Jenkins playing hockey with my dad (and my uncle vomiting on his ceiling. You read that right). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlbalr Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Who says playoff experience matters? The Habs are sitting their most experienced playoff performer (Kaberle, 102 games). In terms of who actually is playing tonight, Gionta leads with 93. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovett's Magnatones Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 Who says playoff experience matters? The Habs are sitting their most experienced playoff performer (Kaberle, 102 games). In terms of who actually is playing tonight, Gionta leads with 93. I forgot about him. It's crazy to think that two years ago he was "the final piece" on the Bruins cup run. I wonder if he wakes up thinking "is this really my life? " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
