Pre-Game Talk: Gam3 E, We got this one, Thursday

[Back in Black]

24 hour to g0

 

[YouGotAStuGoing]

Mental reset, y'all. We're back on our turf. 2-0 becomes 2-4 one game and one period at a time.

 

[CorrectOpinion]

Gam3 E is a good start at least

Statement game tomorrow.
It's been close, the Laffs have capitalized on their chances and made their goalie look better.
Time to return the favor. Expecting Stutzle to put on a show.

 

[Mr Hat]

Galley would be great to push that commercial, he has mastered blowing the leafs.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

They've got to be ready to go from the puck drop. Focus that energy and get a quick goal in the first few minutes. Set the tempo.

If the guys do that, we've got a great chance to win it. Toronto hasn't been that good...but neither have we.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

I don't care if it makes me seem uncool to the regulars here because I won't kiss the ring and praise the Montreal Canadiens organization, but I am going to say that I believe in the Ottawa Senators.

They've got to be ready to go from the puck drop. Focus that energy and get a quick goal in the first few minutes. Set the tempo.

If the guys do that, we've got a great chance to win it. Toronto hasn't been that good...but neither have we.

I want there to be a sea of red and not even have a question who's barn it is, first.

Then I want that energy to go to the boys and see some solid forechecking shifts with some crisp zone exits to set it up.

Finally, I want Batherson to score the first goal of the game on a dirty, hardnosed drive to the net. From there, let the good times flow.

 

[OD99]

BTW, we did beat the Leafs 3 straight in the regular season. Now, we do it again so we can wrap things up back home for game 6.

Build up the drama.
Maximize playoff revenue.
Let Ottawa fans revel in Leaf fan tears next Thursday.

Yes, I like this plan.

 

[Beville]

Everyone gets to go back to their homes, see their families and reset.

Bring that energy to practice, to warm up, go out there and give it your all.

Please shut those Leaf fans up - they’re getting insufferable.

 

[Sens9292]

Absolutely need to get the first goal. This Toronto teams has their MO, put pressure and they’ll fold.

 

[Boud]

This is not going to happen but I would love to see Green shuffle the lines for this game.

Give me

Tkachuk - Cozens - Batherson
Greig - Stutzle - Zetterlund
Perron - Pinto - Amadio
Cousins - Gaudette - Giroux

Big heavy top line that plays north south hockey.

Fast line with Stutzle. Greig who can retrieve pucks in deep.

3rd line should be a good matchup line.

Give Giroux easier matchups on the 4th line and let him find his game.

 

[JD1]

I'm going. Gonna be hard to get through the work day.

 

[mysens]

Hopefully the weather holds up so we can enjoy the outside the arena atmosphere

 

[Alex1234]

WE NEED THE 1ST GOAL
PLAIN AND SIMPLE
BEST TEAM IN THE NHL WHEN SCORING 1ST
THAT TEAM NEEDS THAT CONFIDENCE BOOSTER OF THE 1ST GOAL
NOTHING MORE IMPORTANT TONIGHT
