Is Ottawa good?

[5 14 6 1]

They looked solid tonight on the second half of a B2B (for both teams), however Ottawa did have to travel and Edmonton didn't.

Was impressed by Stutzle and Tkachuk as usual.

They were supposed to be good and I’m happy they’re getting there.

 

[Dotter]

Rumor has it for every natural hat trick a Tkachuk scores they grow an eyebrow. Every hattrick their team gives up they lose an eyebrow.

 

[BullyHockey]

They got the talent to be, but that division is always tough and competitive. Going to be hard to kick out one of boston or tampa; especially tampa imo.

 

[LivingRentFree]

No

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

Add Ullmark to the list of former Sabres kicking ass elsewhere.

Happy for y’all. I’m not jealous, why would I be jealous?

Boston is thoroughly mid this year. If Ottawa was ready to take the next step Boston shouldn't be an obstacle. The east is actually really bad this year outside of a handful of teams.

With a healthy Ullmark - yes

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Ullmark week to week.

Its over....

 

[Lahey]

No, and they’re in free fall now. Lost 4-0 to the Sabres and 6 of their last 7 (including 4 straight). They’re done.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

No, and they’re in free fall now. Lost 4-0 to the Sabres and 6 of their last 7 (including 4 straight). They’re done.

Their last 7 games they've scored 10, or 9 against goalies.

With a healthy Ullmark - yes

He would have filled the net last night.

Not particularly great timing for Ullmark's injury on the longest road trip in franchise history.

And the flu.

Oh well, plenty of time left in the season and the schedule gets a lot easier down the stretch.

 

[Dotter]

the schedule gets a lot easier down the stretch.

They just lost to Sabres at home and got boo'd by their own fans. Lol.

 

[Bleedred]

They’d be better with Ullmark, but clearly their offense has become a problem too.

I have a sneaking suspicion that’s a Travis Green thing.

Biggest joke of a head coach in the league. He’ll probably get another shot if they miss the playoffs, if only because Ullmark wasn’t healthy.

 

[HabsMD97]

Tkachuk has to be the worst captain in the league, every night he's doing something braindead. Ottawa should be way better than they are right now.

 

[Nogatco Rd]

No, and they’re in free fall now. Lost 4-0 to the Sabres and 6 of their last 7 (including 4 straight). They’re done.

And yet by points percentage they’re still in a playoff spot.

East WC 2 (and likely WC1) will go down to the last week of the season, dumb to count anyone out now.

 

[DingerMcSlapshot]

Ottawa sucks. Led by a big baby man boy.
