GDT: Ottawa Senators at Colorado Avalanche - 9PM - TSN5/RDS1 - Coming down the mountain fast

[DylanSensFan]

Celebrating small victories while leaving their road trip with 0/10 points is wild to me.

It was a terrible road trip and will likely cost us the season. But what else have we got, aside from the little things right now. We waited too long to fire Smith. Too much "patience." But we outplayed Colorado for the majority of this game and that is something I can appreciate. We fought till the end tonight. We looked better than we have in a while.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Yup, that is worse case scenario. This team is not competitive at all and needs to start collecting decent prospect for rebuild v2

Thankfully they have 3 picks in the top 35-40 this season.

 

[Rodzilla]

I cant with the morale victories anymore

Been 7 years, my patience is running low

 

[SensFactor]

There's many reasons we lost that game, but the one that bothers me is the offside challenge.. If it's that close it's too much of a gamble when the game is tied anyways

Agreed... no need to challenge if you are not 100%... Especially knowing our PK is dog shit

 

[Dionysus]

What’s the point, every year when the team is 15 pts out of playoffs they start winning in Feb and March.

No pressure, loosy hockey, what’s the point seriously?

Yep. Never seen a team so mentally fragile. They find a way to blow an absurd amount of games.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Celebrating small victories while leaving their road trip with 0/10 points is wild to me.

no celebrating the 1st 4 losses or the way they played.

Not celebrating this loss but the team played noticeably better and hung in there until the end . I have no aspirations for playoffs.. I want to see improvement and we did see some tonight. baby steps

 

[Bileur]

Did they?

He’s fired and you’re still giving him time.

 

[2CHAINZ]

You should. That thing is class

I mean, it's kind of ugly, but I don't get why I would be rolling in a tank. This is the Ottawa Senators; we will never get a top pick in a draft. We will be drafting 11th this year; go ahead and book it.

Looking better and gaining 0 points means literally nothing. They’re not far from being the 32nd best team in the league while spending to the cap. It’s not acceptable

He’s fired and you’re still giving him time.

Who is? I'm glad DJ was fired and we have Jacques as our coach.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

DJ should have been fired last year

before last year.... his best before date had expired

 

[DylanSensFan]

I cant with the morale victories anymore

Been 7 years, my patience is running low

I feel you.

 

[2CHAINZ]

I cant with the morale victories anymore

Been 7 years, my patience is running low

I mean at least we aren't the New York Jets

 

[Dionysus]

Is it actually?

No confirmation. There is a team pic where his wrist is pretty wrapped up. He also just can't seem to shoot, and appears to have very little confidence in his shot.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

vs losing but continuing to look bad its something

 

[Bileur]

I’m actually on board with moral victories now.

The season is over.

It’s no longer about wins and losses it’s about improvement and finding out who is a real player the sens can move forward with.

PK was absolute trash but they played much better, particularly in the second.

I’m looking forward to seeing how they will look in March.

The only way they start winning is if they get their game on the right track. So looking good is important. They skated tonight. They didn't look like they were being out skated or outplayed for the first time in a long time. If they played like this for the entire road trip we'd have at least six of ten points. I don't think people realize that many of the players we have are still not even 25. It took Colorado a while to get to this point.

 

[SensFactor]

Kastelic played 5 mins
Crookshank deserved more than 8 mins
Smejkal was good on forecheck got 11 mins

 

[2CHAINZ]

Who is? I'm glad DJ was fired and we have Jacques as our coach.

You gave Jaques one game and 10 minutes before you declared the team looks worse under him

 

[Dionysus]

I'd just like to watch a game where they don't blow a lead. Get a win and break this brutal losing streak.

 

[Korpse]

That one hurts a lot. They played well and were equally as good outside of the ability to kill a penalty. You could see before puck drop for the 3rd there was a positive energy.

 

[Rodzilla]

I mean at least we aren't the New York Jets

Man I remember the Kunitz OT goal

I stared at the TV for 30 minutes,

GF asked me if I was aight, I told her ;

Took me 10 years to experience this again, dont know when Ill get to see this again, heartbreaking

Now going on 7 years of absolute embarrassment, loser hockey.

It hurts my brother

 

[SpezDispenser]

People need to understand how badly coached this team was. This year is finished. It's gonna take martin the rest of the year to break the habits that were allowed to root.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

You gave Jaques one game and 10 minutes before you declared the team looks worse under him

Funny thing is they look much better. The team is losing in hair-pulling fashion not put your head in the sand fashion

 

[OUT HOUSE]

vs losing but continuing to look bad its something

I’m just annoyed that I have to wait until October 2024 to start this over again. It feels like some sick joke at this point. At least I’ll be going into next season with no expectations.
