GDT: Toronto @ Ottawa - Saturday 7pm - HNIC

[1specter]

Does it matter? The Leafs never win in that building other than the playoff games.

Leafs are actually 4-2 there in their last 6 games. Their only win against Ottawa last year came on the 'road'.

Got caught unawares, most years we organize a friends and family bus trip to a Leaf game in Ottawa usually in Feb or March, tonight is the only visit. Last Saturday in Montreal was a ton of fun in downtown all day and night. Not missing anything in beautiful Kanata I guess. I’d drive down this afternoon but it takes minimum 1.5 hours to get out of the parking lots there, crazy. Fun atmosphere there when Leafs visit especially on a Saturday (or playoffs)

Looking forward to seeing Quillan in nhl action. Always fun to see a player realize a dream they’ve been working towards their whole lives.

This one could probably go either way. I would expect it to be a close game no matter who wins.

thanks tips

btw did you guys know Giroux's car was stolen in Ottawa. Then he got a loaner and that loaner also got stollen ; well not a laughing matter but interesting none the less... but not as scary as Marner being carjacked by armed a-holes

sens expected line-up

That forward group is kinda ass. No wonder they haven't been able to score lately.

This one has a 7-1 Leafs loss written all over. The Sens will come out flying at home and I seriously doubt the Leafs will match that intensity.

I think that is just it. What version of the Leafs do we get. The sleepy-going-through-the-motions Leafs that we all hate, or the bring-your-best-effort Leafs who could beat any team in this league, certainly including the Senators regardless if in Kanata or Toronto.

Call me captain obvious, but if the Leafs match the intensity, they probably win. If they don't they certainly lose.

We should know more 5 minutes into the game when the Sens have broken their shutout streak.

If Forsberg is in net, it's an automatic loss for Ottawa.

 

[Metroid]

It's been a while since I've seen a game in Ottawa, always a good time. I'm also 6-0 in Ottawa. GLG.

Will forecheck, backcheck and paycheque be paying tonight?

 

[notdoneyet]

Anyone know what our lineup is

Not sure but paycheque, forecheck, backcheck should be.

LOL Travis Green is the Sens head coach? How am I only finding out about this now.

Good old memories of this bench brawl….Tucker goes in guns blazing, with Travis not far behind with a falcon punch.

 

[Rude Dog]

If only our away fans could attend home games. Love the crowds in other Cdn arenas. GLG

Way more enthusiastic. Had to give my tickets to the game in Vancouver away because I won’t be able to make it but I sure was looking forward to making some noise with my fellow leafs nation inmates.

And in case anyone is interested, yes I gave them to other leafs fans.

PVR it then you can watch it all no commercials or intermissions!

Ok plans fell through I am on it!

 

[LeafSteel]

Stutzle's hockey card has him diving LMAO

That sign is savage.

This post is gold!

Thank you.

Last game I was at in their barn Matthews scored 4 goals in his NHL debut and... we still didn't win.

 

[Frostitute]

So glad I can finally say this...

LEAFS vs SENS in a possible round 1 playoff preview! Gettem boys!

 

[93gilmour93]

Let's do this in our home away from home....

 

[Smif]

Ottawa favored to win this one... surprising.

 

[93gilmour93]

Jen starts talking...

 

[Nineteen67]

I wonder if Brady has thought about being a full time cheerleader? He was there for the Blues, Matthew’s runs, and the USA junior team and it seems it might be his calling.

 

[LeafSteel]

Did I miss a post for our starting lineup tonight or is it not yet known?

 

[Nineteen67]

I love the kid’s teams that introduces HNIC. It doesn’t matter where they’re from they all saw welcome to Haawkey Night in CanDA.
