GDT: Ottawa Senators at NJ Devils - 7PM - Sportsnet / TVAS2 - Winning is NOT an Option Edition

They don't have much talent past the first line but Laine can score at will on the PP and they have a great coach in MSL who gets them to play the right way with tons of energy, something we lack sometimes.
It's their will to play hard that gives them the edge for sure. As for talent, Demidov will probably debut next year. They'll be tough to deal with for years.
 
Yes, the sitting back is recipe for disaster ... I don't understand why you would ever stop moving your feet and pressuring. Hopefully not a "strategy" for the coaching staff, seems like we have seen it a lot this year.
I think this is a strategy of the coaching staff.
 
You listen to the Habs broadcast and it is pretty obvious they have the good announcers(ok Galley sucks but he's better than whoever was doing our color stuff) and they actually want Montreal to win. Our two bozos barely seemed to care lol.
 
Every coach turtles with a lead. Just like every coach loves playing their vet plugs that they trust not to make mistakes over young kids with talent.

Just the way it is.
 
Our two biggest rivals giving Colorado a run for their money and we couldn’t even hang with them.

Apparently unbeatable though cuz mackinon and makar are so good

Unbeatable for us. The Habs are unbeatable for us too.

It’s mental but it’s real. There are certain teams that we simply aren’t going to beat except for very rare occasions (shocked that we beat Carolina, for example).

We are that team for other teams. We own Toronto.
