2011 was a joke. It also left a bad taste in my mouth. The Rome suspension should of been investigated. 4 game suspension for a hit that was widely celebrated by New Jersey Devil fans for years in the playoffs. Steven's made a living off of that hit and to see Rome get 4 games "longest suspension ever in playoff history" is a joke. I honestly hated those playoffs because it also made me question the integrity of the game. Add in Colin Campbell making the leagues decisions on suspensions when his son Gregory played for the Bruins, how is that even allowed? Now in today's NHL with the betting involved, you can throw the games integrity out the door. 2011 ruined it for me, my fond memories are from 94.

Ottawa outshooting Philly 25 to 4 half way through the game

Sens also just recently held Boston to zero shots in the third in a win.

I think they are such a deep talented team...could this be a turning point for them?

Really love the makeup of their team starting with Brady, if they could make the playoffs they could ruffle some feathers

edit: And lol its tied....Ulmark beat clean on a breakaway. Shots 27 to 7 with 2nd almost over

Now outshooting 27-7 and the game is tied 2-2. Hold off on the parade, they're still the Sens

Not with Green as coach.

As we get closer to the US Thansgiving, it' still those same 5 clubs from 2023 and 2024 that were in the bottom 5 right at the bottom again. Mon, CBJ, Chi, SJ, Ana that are #2-6 worst in Points %. Only Nash has joined that group as the worst team this season so far.

If you are a club in that mushy middle, like Det, Cal, Pitt, how do you out tank those 5 clubs?

The reason why I can't watch the 2011 highlights is because that final was so rigged. I can watch the 94 run no problem, even though we were so close in Game 7, but we never had a chance in 2011. Even the "slaying the dragon" doesn't really mean much to me now, considering it was all for nothing in the end.

Every time I see the score of a Penguins game they're getting caved in.

Will we see a world where Crosby and/or Malkin get dealt to another team at the deadline?
