GDT: GAME 61 | Senators @ Blackhawks | Must Win in Windy City Edition | Wed Mar 5 2025, 7:30PM | SN, TVAS

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Back in a playoff spot, but I think Rangers still pass us because of their RW .

nope they have more games played. But yeah us having more RW and ROW than Detroit and CBJ is so critical.

Pts % is the first tie breaker, then Reg wins, so we stay ahead

 

[Butchy Dakkar]

Glad we win, but what is this brand of hockey we’ve been playing? It won’t cut it down the stretch.

Rough game for Sandy and Ullmark. Bath looked dangerous alll night.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Sigma mindset

No cap

 

[Carl Karlsson]

Stuetzle has been horrible this game.

But he redeemed himself with the GWG

Yeah didn't saw their pts% that's why edited my post

Looks like someone sat down the Norris line and told them that if we miss the playoffs it's because they are playing terribly.

Maybe Perron called them out a bit now that he's been in the lineup for a few games.

 

[Bjornar Moxnes]

Donato is obviously having a career year on a team that he's getting more opportunities, but he also has the most 5on5 points on the Hawks and was the only one outside of their fourth line that even created chances. Like Bedard was shut down sure, but he was pretty much invisible.

I'm worried we'll want to sign whoever we trade for, especially if we are giving up a high pick. Donato doesn't have the track record to feel confident he can maintain this pace, unless he's looking for 3-4M.

Celebrini >>> Bedard don't @ me

Another massive game on Sat against the Rangers at the CTC. Just got my tickets for the 12:30pm tilt.

Yeah Celebrini was more dangerous when we had the favourable line matching versus Bedard being shut off even when given the favourable deployment.

Sens play up and down to their competition. As long as the 3 Cs stay healthy we will make the show but thats a big if.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I just don’t have the confidence in this team I and mid season. Guys are so sloppy right now

 

[Icelevel]

Hamonic with 5 giveaways played over 21 mins

Someone slap green across the face

I know chabot left the game. This is still a problem either way.

I'll also be there.

Our best player tonight was.... Perron!

Batherson looked to be running with that title first half of the game.

Agreed. Perron looked great tonight. Very engaged. He stirs the pot on that line. He forechecks hard.

We are a better team with him in the lineup.

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Donato/Palmieri/Etc
Perron - Norris - Batherson
Greig - Pinto - Giroux
Gregor - Cousins - Amadio

It’s been 5 weeks since Cousins had his injury and his timeline was 6-8 weeks. He should be back in the next 2 weeks here.

Our depth is slowly coming back…

 

[Ice-Tray]

Perron was hitting shooting, and dare I say even pretty fast tonight. Simply all over the place. Honourable mention to Bath who had a solid game.

Chabot missing from the back end really changed the complexion of the game in the 3rd. Hope he’s feeling better by Saturday.

A win is a win, and they can’t all be pretty.

Onwards!

All our D were average to poor in this game I thought. Zub and Jensen were somewhat serviceable but that’s about it. Sanderson and Matinpalo also struggled defensively very badly. Forwards coming back were scampering and missing assignments and everything else. Fortunately got the two points but need to settle down in our own zone. Doing so will help Ullmark as well.

Provided nothing much happens at the deadline and all guys get healthy I’d like to see them run a third pairing of JBD and Klevin again. Unfortunately as long as Hamonic remains here I don’t think we ever see him being a healthy scratch and I just don’t get that at all.

What happened to Chabot? Saw he only played 14 minutes or so.

Left late in the 2nd with "an illness".

I doubt this is anything long term but this is the Travis Green senators so . . .

Left after the second with an illness. I believe they specified that it wasn’t an injury.

Wasn't pretty, but the W was needed
