[DrEasy]

Massive game! Hope the new guys manage to quickly find some chemistry with their linemates.

Our 3rd pairing is a big question-mark: obviously Hamonic will play, but who will he partner with?

 

[Emerica]

Cozens and Batherson are both listed at 6’3

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

Is Zetterlund here is my big question.

 

[frightenedinmatenum2]

Is Zetterlund here is my big question.

He is going to enter the CTC by bursting through a wall.

 

[SpezDispenser]

We should both load up and spread out the lines. I want to see Cozens with Chuck pretty bad and pinto with zetterlund and batherson, which leaves giroux and Perron with Greig, but it likely won't happen.

This game is going to be the weirdest environment.

Playoff hockey with a Sparty's birthday crowd.

 

[Beville]

Got money down on the new guys to score, and Sens to win.

Let’s do this, boys.

 

[Icelevel]

No Zetterlund

11-7 most likely

 

[NyQuil]

Taking NyQuil_Jr to his first Senators game today.

Hope it’s a good one!

Protect his ears

Freaking kidding me.

 

[NyQuil]

Protect his ears

Yeah we have ear defenders.

We went to the skills last year.

Should be a special memory he will remember forever to see Dennis Gilbert's first game as an Ottawa Senator.

Have fun.

Something to do with European visas and the TDL being on a Friday. It was discussed on TSN.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

lol making moves and having to go 11-7 because of it in the middle of a playoff race is dumb as f***.

So would staios be well aware of this? Why wasn’t someone called up?

 

[SensFactor]

Lets go! Big game

Is going 11-7 really worse than calling up Jenik to play 5 mins in a 12-6 formation

 

[OUT HOUSE]

I’ll be there wearing my Roman Wick jersey

 

[L'Aveuglette]

No one has mentioned them going 11-7 yet so hold your horses.

The greater worry is about the defensive pairings never really getting comfortable or finding their footing if they are rotating guys through.

 

[Puikiou]

Most exciting game since the Spring of 2017. Can't wait.

 

[aragorn]

I doubt Zetterlund makes it in time for the game today. Will we see a Gilbert vs Rempe tilt today?

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Batherson
Perron - Cozens - Giroux - Zetterlund takes Perron's spot when he arrives
Greig - Pinto - Amadio - Perron takes Amadios spot
Highmore - Gaudette - ??? - Amadio takes the ??? spot

Sanderson - Zub
Chabot - Jensen
Gilbert - Hamonic/Matinpalo - I assume Kleven is still out

Ullmark - Forsberg - Ullmark likely starts

I’ll be pretty surprised if cozens isn’t with batherson

And then Zetterlund with stutzle. We’ll see soon enough.
