Battle of Ontario GNT

Unfortunately I've got a class tonight and won't be able to watch most of the game.

Like always, I'm guessing the Leafs will win. Especially if Alfie doesn't play which is likely as he's a game time decision.

 

[dash]

How about a third straight bagel for the Leafs?!?

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Alfie is in the lineup. Probably shouldn't be. This is how a season goes south; the team struggles early, feels the pressure, has players play hurt and they miss significant time down the stretch.

Here's hoping Alfie doesn't aggravate his injury.

Sens look a little sloppy early.

Luckily they're playing the Leafs>

 

[KennyBanyeah]

The Sens are starting to look a little better here; some nice pressure leads to the PP.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

1-0 Good guys on the Fisher penalty shot goal.

The Sens passing has improved as the period has progressed.

 

[puckhead]

what's Alfie's injury?

 

[KennyBanyeah]

what's Alfie's injury?

Lower body... LOL.

He's actually looked pretty good tonight though, so it can't be that bad.

210 just went out with what looks like a potentially serious injury.

Man I wish Nick Foligno had Kovalev's hands. Fucking kid just can't finish. With his style of play and Kovalev's skills the kid would be a 50 goal man. He keeps creating chances and they just don't go in.

Hopefully the finish will come.

Wait... maybe Kovalev could just show some of Nick's work ethic. Meh. I'm just pissing myself off now.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

2-0 Sens. Gonchar gets off of the schneid.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Karlsson with the cannon from the point. 3-0.

The kid is starting to come on.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Foligno is doing it all except lighting the lamp. Draws the PP.

 

[dash]

The Sens look to be doing fine...woot!

Go Sens Go!

 

[KennyBanyeah]

The Sens look to be doing fine...woot!

Go Sens Go!

So, do you just hate the Leafs like any good Canadian or do you hate them because of Phaneuf?

 

[Urkie]

Woah, the Sens are actually winning this game?

I think the world is coming to an end...lol

I hate the Leafs like any good Canadian...I wish things could have worked out better with Dion and the Flames, but I don't have any ill will towards Phaneuf. I actually hope he can elevate his game and become a better all-around defenseman.

They've looked pretty good for the most part Urk.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Goal Leafs. 3-1. Could have been called off if the same refs as the Sens-Bruins game were there. Kulemin lightly bumps Elliott and the puck squeaks through.

Sens need to pick it up right now.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Huge save by Elliot.

 

[KennyBanyeah]

Wow.... The refs are trying to hand this back to the Leafs.

A phantom call on Kelly and now a delay of game that is wrong.

 

[Urkie]

Well, at least they won but sitting back in the third period is becoming a theme for this team. That has to stop.

My theory is that if you played a certain way to get the lead then you have to continue to play that way to preserve it. They almost let one of the worst teams in the league come back on them in the third period. Not good...
