GDT: Florida Panthers at Ottawa Senators - 2PM - TSN5/RDS - Kitty Kats Katerwauling in Kanata - Ain't No Tkachuks Edition

[Rodzilla]

We never used him here the way he was supposed to be used.

100% agree

Also he has a rocket while Chabot shoots muffins.

Id assume Chabot’s value was terrible tho

Not like Chych got us anything big back but I have liked Jensen.

Sanderson Chychrun wouldve been better in my humble opinion

 

[PatrickEaves]

Stop trying to give Zub concussions! Stupid rest of the league.

 

[Micklebot]

Verhehghe trying to murder Zub....

Sens are getting dummied

Sens are winning & keeping their lead & now have a PP.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Sens are getting dummied

Missing their two top forwards and top 4 dman btw.

 

[Puikiou]

Sens are getting dummied

By a Tkachuk-less, Barkov-less and Ekblad-less Panthers team. No less!

 

[Rodzilla]

Chychrun wasn't fitting in with the players it was the right choice although I also thought the same. Plus we could not afford his new contract.

Well that’s debatable Chabot makes like 1M less and isnt worth anywhere that money

Which is why I think nobody wanted him

 

[Big Muddy]

As much as I love this team I find it very dumb

What are Chabot and Batherson doing at the blueline and why is Chabot gliding back? He pisses me off as a player

Its been a 2-0 on the PP and 3 breakaways so far? Wake up call a timeout idk

Senators have played bad this period. Plenty of blame to spread around.

 

[Relapsing]

If it was me I wouldve kept Chychrun, much harder to play against

Then again looks like a weirdo.

Doesnt seem to be going too bad for him and his team tho

Thats like someone pointing out a duck to you, a person who has seen ducks before, have had ducks described to you in detail by other people, and even watched multiple videos of ducks, and saying "yeah, I guess that looks like a duck, but does it quack?"

Chychrun quacks.

 

[swiftwin]

Panthers are taking a piece of every player every chance they get. And we have no answer

Meh, I'd rather focus on staying healthy going into the playoffs. Especially with a 2-0 lead.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

On first glance sure. I personally see no forward support. Like there were three-four turnovers by Chabot/partner in the last five minutes. In all of them the forward blew the zone or was on the wrong side of the puck. If you're under pressure and there are no options what can you do?

Terrible puck support from forwards today and brutal turnovers.

I agree forward support has been bad but it doesn't absolve Chabot and at the very least I would take away a few of his shifts so he can gather his thoughts.

 

[Icelevel]

I’ve seen two suspendable plays by these rats in the last 10 mins.
I just tuned in.

 

[Sensrule]

This isn't winning hockey. Panthers are eventually going to score.

 

[Hotsam Batcho]

Sens are winning & keeping their lead & now have a PP.

Yes while getting dummied.

 

[Rodzilla]

Senators have played bad this period. Plenty of blame to spread around.

Absolutely,

But its often the same mistakes by the same players IMO

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Batherson. All the time in the world. No one in front of him. And he tries bar down short side for the highlight reel

 

[NyQuil]

Chychrun never really worked well on his offside, at least at even strength.

That was part of the problem.

You can't pay Sanderson, Chychrun and Chabot $8M to all play the same position.

It was like our RW problem up front with Alfredsson, Hossa and Havlat.

 

[Cosmix]

Sens are winning & keeping their lead & now have a PP.

The team is not playing well right now.

 

[Rodzilla]

Chychrun never really worked well on his offside, at least at even strength.

I didnt mean as a pair if thats what you read

I meant as the two main pieces

 

[swiftwin]

Yes while getting dummied.

Still winning

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Cozens. Gets the puck. Far out. Tries to go bar down short side. What do you gain from that other than if it goes in your buddies will say it was a sick snipe.

Cozens saw a hit coming and got rid of that puck QUICK lol. To three panthers in the slot

We could have played Sandy at RD.

 

[NyQuil]

Yeah, I re-read it after I posted.

In any event, it speaks to the fact that we didn't use him properly.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

We have an extra player why are the panthers out numbering us 3 to 1 everywhere on the ice. These guys don’t even want to get close to a panther for fear of getting hit

 

[NyQuil]

We could have played Sandy at RD.

I don't really like any defenceman playing on their wrong side.

That backhand to keep the puck in is so tricky, it's almost unfair to the defenceman.
