Is Ottawa good?

[umma gumma]

Where were you Friday and Sunday night? Do you need attention that badly?

 

[Masked]

Sorry. Still the worst of the worst.

 

[swiftwin]

Nope. Sens are still bad. Please ignore.

I'm taking Friday and Sunday into account as well. Lot of good and bad so far this season but last night looked like a real good team especially after laying that stinker vs the Aves. Old Senators would have gone into a 4-6 game slide after that, but they turned on a dime and looked like a legit threat last night. Makes me think they're finally building off their mistakes instead of falling into the 'woe is me' mentality they have in the past. We still haven't lost more than 2 games in row so far this season. That's legit something to ponder early into this season.

Also the thread was almost at page 2 before your bump 12 hours after my post so

Sounds like a thread for the Sens board.

Since we won't know how good they really are for a few months still, should just lock this one up.

Giroux is still going strong.. really wanted Oilers to get him. We would have won the cup by now had we landed him the last year or two.

 

[Devil Dancer]

I almost always discount the first 10 games of a season. I've seen Buffalo get crowned champs early only to flame out too many times.

This applies to my team's current hot start (Caps).

Just out of curiosity, what exactly are you looking for/expecting when you click on HFBoards>General Hockey Discussion>National Hockey League Talk?

"Lock this one up" lmao.

Hoping to not find a Sens fan desperately seeking attention. You and Adrianopolis should get a room.

 

[Akrapovince]

No.

Until we do a damn thing in November.

Fantastic showing tonight against arguably the best team in the league and hands down the best goaltender in the world right now. I mean, wow. Sucks to lose this one but what a game it was to watch. Kudos to the Rangers, hell of a team they've put together over there. Games like tonight is what hockey is all about.

This is a different team this year. It's good... makes you wonder were it goes.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

Well they're better than the Rangers but that's not a high bar, lol.

The Rangers are not arguably the best team in the league. Their defense is swiss cheese and while they have talent on offense some of it has sucked (Mika line) and the rest can't do much if the defense is hemmed in their zone. The Rangers looked like a juggernaut in the first 6 games. But frankly the way they're playing now I don't think they're even a playoff team without Igor. This is the Lundqvist Rangers all over again, with better forwards and far worse D. But great game by the Sens.

@topshelf15 is that you?

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

@topshelf15 is that you?

I don't know know who that is. Please don't quote me anymore.

 

[swiftwin]

Still the worst team. Lost 3 of their last 4. Please continue to ignore.

 

[BlueGoose27]

Brady will be asking for a trade come March…Sens will be out of the playoff race by then. Sens make huge trade. Send him and Giroux to Vancouver for EP40, Lekkermaki (spelling) and 2025 1st round pick.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

The Sens really have no excuse anymore. Maybe it was just the one game, but they seem to be defending much better, have offense for days, and a former Vezina goalie.

 

[Jetcetera]

Ottawa is mid

 

[NikolaTesla]

Habs fan here and i think that, even though i really hate the Senators because they just beat us every damn times (except last game i couldnt believe my eyes that it finally happened).

I think that oTtawai is a really good team atm and that they will make the playoffs pretty easily.

Well they got Igor'd today.

 

[Fatass]

Sens look like they will be the club out of Wings, Sabres, Habs to make the jump up the standings. This might be the year one of those four (Sens) climb into the top four of their division.
Leafs, Panthers, Lightning, Sens.
Bruins fall into the bottom four with the Wings, Sabres, and Panthers.

To be a good team you have to win games.

We are still very far away from being good.

Yeah they look really solid. Kept up with the rangers last night as well. If the mature the right way within the season they could be a solid team.

You're team is 7-2-1 with a goal differential of +17, and currently 3rd in the East. There's only one team in the league that has allowed fewer goals.

For whatever reason, you are overly downplaying your own team's performance this season.
