Against the Islanders this season, the Senators haven't fared well. The Senators fell by the exact same score of 4-2 against the Islanders on Nov. 7 and Dec. 8. Both games were played in Ottawa. The Senators hope the third time will be the charm against the Islanders, but this time in Long Island.​

[Senscore]

This team is our boogeyman somehow

 

[Gil Gunderson]

If it’s anything like every other game against the Islanders, we’ll outplay them and lose 3-2.

 

[Tuna99]

Ottawa will win. I’ll say Forsberg with the start

 

[ottawagm]

Team is finally serious about winning. Nice to see.

 

[PatrickEaves]

GDT with no pre-GDT today?

 

[BonHoonLayneCornell]

Nice to see Leevi is starting again. Prioritizing winning over entrenched roles or ego's. Nice to see.

I want the Sens to beat the shit out of the Isles in their own cheap rink. Virgin Merilainen for the win!

Stutzle and Tkachuk are due for a big game, defence will have to be on point, with some positive offensive impact from Sanderson and Chabot. Love how Chabot is playing, Sanderson is coming along. Giroux with an obligatory assist in one of the goals.

Go Sens Go!

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Am I remembering wrong in that we absolutely suck against the Islanders these days?

Maybe that is just in Ottawa and not in Long Island?

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

How do the owners of this site push a catastrophic upgrade change onto its production site? Did they not have a staging site to apply the upgrade and check for bugs before releasing?

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Games like this are must win. We are the better team and they playing their back-up's back-up. Usually, NYI's advantage is their goaltending.

 

[The Waffler]

The Sens will perform better than my Adblock does on this site after that update, that’s a Waffler guarantee.

Just checked... 3-7-0 against the isles in the last 10. Yikes

 

[Knave]

Darkmode is back baby, that means it's a guaranteed win.

Takes like, 10 seconds to read the lineup in the OP.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

This site upgrade mirrors the 'upgrade' of the Sens going from the 2007-08 jerseys to the 2008-09 Reebok SNES jerseys.

 

[Wallet Inspector]

Okay can we PLEASE get a win against this sub-par team already?

 

[Norris4Norris]

If it’s anything like every other game against the Islanders, we’ll outplay them and lose 3-2.

I have got weird feeling that we outplay them and blow them out of the water, maybe 5-2? But you are right our tendency is to lose a game we should have won against them.

Giroux with a point, Pinto, Norris and Tkachuk score.

Yes, the Senators haven’t done well against the Islanders. NYI are not a very good team, but they get good goaltending and we manage to keep losing when we play them.

Hope things work out differently this time & I’m glad Leevi is between the pipes for us.

 

[RickyLafleur]

At least we're playing Hogberg and have seemingly ended the endless losing streak against former Sens goalies. 4-1 Sens win

Have you seen tech companies these days?

Between game developers using upscaling as a crutch instead of optimization, social media being data collection spy agencies, and tech billionaires more interested in vanity space projects and becoming shadow presidents, real workflow is at the bottom of the list of priorities.

This site upgrade mirrors the 'upgrade' of the Sens going from the 2007-08 jerseys to the 2008-09 Reebok SNES jerseys.

To be fair, outside of the SENS "logo", I really like the design and colour scheme of that jersey.

 

[DanyHeatley]

Matinpalo gets an assist

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Gaudette is scoring this game.

 

[bicboi64]

Isles have the worst PK and PP in the league.

C'mon lads, beat em nice and hard

 

[Crosside]

Darkmode is back baby, that means it's a guaranteed win.

Really, don t work for me
