Glad to see Pinto score one tonight.

Jensen playing like a man possessed the last few games especially.
Ullmark caught fire lately. Things are trending in the right direction; we're now in the mix for the last wildcard spot.

We need to win against Pittsburgh to leapfrog a couple teams and then make hay where we can on this road trip.

Happiest I've been after a win this season! Jensen, what a boss! Dat 3rd line buzzing all night! Celebrating with some (too much?) plum wine over here!

I can't believe we're wasting at least hundreds of thousands of dollars on an analytics team while we have Hamonic on the ice. What's the point?

??? We have just one dude on payroll, and they've probably equipped him with a Commodore 64 and tasked him full time with projecting the height of the 2025 draft class. Analytics budget probably is below 100K.

I've not seen or heard of such a thing (in Ontario). But that is totally combining 2 of my favorite things (Julie Andrews...'tis the season).

I'm not even a big jazz guy but you gotta love Coltrane's version:

 

[Tuna99]

that’s the fastest we’ve seen them play all season. Green loves to roll his lines and everyone eats in a win. The ice time is so balanced, short shifts for everyone and it keeps their speed up.

Disciplined win in terms of playing the system. Ostapchuk also stepping up with an injury and playing the very next game saying ‘no one is taking my spot’ and Green trusting him is another huge step. Really like this kid, he has Western Hockey League values

 

[Tuna99]

Jensen best acquisition since Methot.

Ullmark and Travis Green up there as well.

When I think of what a Travis Green coached team should look like, it’s what I saw last night.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

f***ing no way I play Forsberg tomorrow.


So true. Chabot has been key to the team turning it around. What a turnaround.

Yea, no way I play Forsberg today.

Also, I want last night's version of Chabot to be the norm, not the outlier. I feel for 8 million, he should play like that every night. It almost seems, though, that Jensen is continually outplaying him too. That's not acceptable. Chabot was well worth his price-tag last night. But it must, must be consistent as he is my prime candidate to ship out for shifting team/culture/reallocating the money for 2 good assets. Last night was a lot of old Chabot. A guy who legit looked like our veteran and leader out there. We will see what he's made of during this 9 game road-trip.

Win the next two and we pass Boston.

3rd in the atlantic is the target. That spot is how we get in.

Tampa is ahead of Boston, they’ve just only played 27 games.

 

[Sun God Nika]

the 2nd wild card is more realistic than third in Atlantic but ill take what i can get.

One takeaway was the aggressive backchecking by the forwards.

They did a great job in making sure that rushes by Carolina didn't develop into truly high danger chances.

Several takeaways!
Lame though

 

[SensFactor]

I wouldn't say Giroux is a liability. He just isn't scoring currently. He's been hella good on the PK and pretty good on the second PP.

I believe hes 2nd in the league in faceoff %

 

[Big Muddy]

I'm not even a big jazz guy but you gotta love Coltrane's version:

Coltrane was an excellent musician. Thanks for sharing this. Many accomplished musicians have used the ability to play & solo to Giant Steps as a measuring stick to separate those that are talented from those that have elite talent & virtuosity.

 

[Big Muddy]

Tampa is ahead of Boston, they’ve just only played 27 games.

I think the first step is to get by the Islanders and the Flyers. Yes, Tampa is definitely a notch above Boston imo which is reflected in the standings.

I'm noticing that Ostapchuk almost has that Stone quality of sheer puck thievery.

I've seen more than a few outright steals in the offensive zone.

Yeah, that Islanders loss was a kick to the nads.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Really nice win against a very good team. Good team effort. PINTO off the schneid ; Love to see that. Sens played their most patient game in the post Guy Boucher era
Jensen and Ullmark were terrific. No way Chychrun can play D like that.

Highest CF% player was Chabot at 44.44.. Everyone's Corsi took a bit of a beating but Ullmark was excellent when we needed him

Pinto another strong game and he is starting to dominate at the dot .. 68+%

That's how you win road games.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

One simple question. Where are all the bitches at ?

Its over the top EMO and it goes both ways

 

[Back in Black]

What a treat to see the SENS womp Carolina's a$$!

Let's bring it back for the last home game this year, and do the same...

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Ullmark deserves this shutout. Has been solid lately

He could have had 2 in a row if he didn't play the puck vs the quacks

Man Necas is fast

I should have paid more attention but NECAS / CANES

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

I feel like 50% of this thread was complaining about Hamonic.

for absolutely no reason as well. Look mom ... All heart. No hands , no feet , no brains.

With a three goal lead? He's gotta learn, this the time

A little trust can go a long way with your confidence vs getting stapled

Yes, that’s exactly what I’ve been thinking about lately as well. It was a lost opportunity.

Hurricanes are by far the best team in advanced metrics and it isn't even close. Just being better than most teams they've faced in metrics (especially considering they were chasing us due to score effects) is a win in my book.

 

[dumbdick]

We'll take down tampa and boston.
