[Here I Pageau Again]

I'll be at this game with the bf for our annual Sens vs Leafs game. As usual I'll be nervous!

 

[SanderSen]

Start Condon or Anderson????

It's a coin flip for me. There is a case for Andy with having a break last night but also for getting Condon a couple of games in a row to keep as sharp as possible. Both are playing well and can get it done.

I'm leery of dropping Anderson into normal full time #1 duty vs. working him up to it over the next 20 games with more of a 1a and 1b situation.

Either way, nice to actually have 2 goalies that can do the job.

Ya it's gonna be tricky and I'm sure some folks will be unhappy either way it ends up. But whatever the case, they will both be playing this weekend given the back to backs.

I'm saying Condon Sat, Andy Sun.

 

[internetdotcom]

Go Sens go!

We got dis.

 

[God Says No]

I'm saying Condon Sat, Andy Sun.

I say the opposite. Go with our best on Sat.

Could be a key event in determining the fandom of future mini-fan!

What is Andy's record against the Leafs?
Seems to me he used to have problems with them.

 

[NyQuil]

Yeah, ultimately it's a good problem to have.

However, it will mean that whenever we lose a game, the coach will have made the wrong call in the post-game discussion.

Does anyone else realize that we probably shouldn't finish 1st in the Atlantic because this would result in a tougher first round match up?

The best thing this team can do to succeed in the playoffs is to play their best hockey down the stretch.

I'd rather be hot going into the post-season than backing in against a "weaker" opponent.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Yup. Key is to either take 1st and hope to match up against CBJ, or maintain second. We still need to keep up the wins. MTL will likely get a boost with Julien coming in.

we're only just past the halfway point of the season. i think it's a bit early to be thinking along those lines

I agree. Too early to start talking about playoffs.

 

[NyQuil]

I agree. Too early to start talking about playoffs.

This is also true.

We're turning into Leaf fans.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

I agree. Too early to start talking about playoffs.

Our season is 67% completed. Montreal's is 71% completed.

It's creeping up..

 

[Six Assets]

I agree. Too early to start talking about playoffs.

My view is that Condon is playing better at the moment but you have to go with Anderson for confidence and get him going for the playoffs. Like you said its nice to have confidence in both guys so I will be happy either way

Does anyone else realize that we probably shouldn't finish 1st in the Atlantic because this would result in a tougher first round match up?

I feel ya but I do not believe we are in a position to be picky about where we finish and taking the division could add some much needed confidence/moxie to the team.

 

[GWNR]

Personally I start Andy Saturday.

Nothing against Condon, but on a back to back you play your best against the better team, which IMO is Toronto.

Condon on Sunday.

Maybe if Andy has a bad game and Condon has a great game then we're talking about who to start next week, but I think you go #1 Saturday for sure, which I think is Andy.

So? I don't see your point.

So what if i posted our sportsclubstats?

 

[NyQuil]

Isn't that talking about the playoffs?

 

[Super Cake]

Isn't that talking about the playoffs?

It is talking about our probability of making the playoffs.

Some people here are acting like it is a certainty that we make the playoffs.

There is a difference.
