Thank god we're winning the 5v5 analytics cup!
If they say, "It's not about money," they probably want money. And if they say, "Don't panic," you might wanna head for the exits. Look at what they do, not what they say!
Agree with all of your playoff takes so far great coverage guys. I am a bit worried about Brady overall and what a non factor he has been, I’m assuming he must be injured. He hasn’t been right since 4 nations. If it’s not an injury I’m really worried with his performance but if he’s injured that’s at least an excuse. But boy does it ever make us realize how rare a talent EK65 was doesn’t it? EK would have obliterated the leafs in that game last night.
Crazy copium dawg. Get your boys Ullmark and Cozens in check
Let’s not put pressure on the boys to take the early lead or Ullmark to steal a game. We just need to play our game, no extra pressure on this young team is the only way we will see the best of them. One thing I did want to say is that there’s way too many shots at the goaltender in the last two games, need to go glove side as mentioned on Stolarz as that’s been his weak spot since the OHL. Great show as always boys, been some late nights for me in the UK the last week lol. #GoSensGo
I'm pretty worried need to go 4-1 now there's basically no room for errors now and the Sens have been making plenty. I'm still happy with the season as making the playoffs is key to identifying who has what it takes when the games matter most and who doesn't to try and take that next step it's important regardless the step this season in showing Staios a lot about this team
Sens need to get in front !!!! This team can't win if they fall behind. Wake up!
Batherson just made Staios list of guys you don't win with and he has the skill set and the size but he just doesn't want it like that sadly. Anyone who's a winner in that position smokes Domi and is licking their chops in a spot like that just crazy he doesn't blow him up and end Domi's series right there
You can’t tell me Sens are the good guys in “Good vs Evil”. You guys have seen a Stanley cup finals and also a Conference finals more recently then we’ve made game 6 of even the 2nd round.. We’ve suffered and deserved this more than anyone hate all you want and call us evil all you want
Leafs in 4
If we don't win game 3 que leevi
You can hear Pills desperation in his voice, I feel ya. Panic setting
Ellinas is the only reason Kitchener advanced had a hattrick to get them all 3 goals in their win last week and then scores both goals last night to win them the game
Did you actually call leafs fans arrogant? Have you even watched the last 9 years of playoffs? We were up 6-2 in game one and we were clutching our pearls expecting a collapse 😂
Leafs fan here. Just want to say you guys have a great show here and I've enjoyed getting a Sens perspective. It really felt like the Sens were going to take that game based on the 2nd and 3rd period, and so that OT goal must have felt devastating. We've had some Batherson-esk plays of our own in previous playoff series so I know what that feels like. It's a game of inches! Goodluck in game 3!
Leafs had too many men on the ice for Taveres and Domi's goals. Should've challenged.
Leafs haven’t even brought their best stuff yet 😂
🧹 you idiots. Go Leafs Go!
4 games on home ice = sweep
Domi's OT goal was the result of a bad Ottawa play , but Ottawa's tying goal was the result of an atrocious Leafs play behind their own net. Karma.
Big Senator fan here. Don't think we need to change a thing. Just keep that 5 on 5 energy rolling. Powerplay is buzzing. I know Ulmark is taking heat but this breaks down how hes a game changer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXFg5QsTcLQ
Leafs played horrible! #34 #88 #16 need to step up, Sens won all 3 regular season games!
It’s time to panic
I like the optimism, but sadly you’re delusional if you think Ottawa has been the better team at any point during those 2 games.
not time to panic but if they lose game 3 we all know what's gonna happen in game 4
The number 1 thing this series has highlight the most so far is how clueless Sens fans are about hockey.
Sens dominated Leafs last night, Leafs better wake up, Austin has to step up and Robertson has to stay out of the box.Sens are playing better 5 on 5.
Living as a Sens fan in Orillia… The Leafs fans are far too excited right now
Win or lose there are many positives the Sens take from this series. I love the way Toronto is playing high level pressure hockey as it’s forced young Sens players to see playoff hockey is a different level of hockey, and the Sens are finding another gear. I’d love to see the Sens win a game or two as this series is an absolute clinic on tough play. I don’t like some of the soft calls, but can’t take away the fact that both teams played a solid 2 and 3 period. OT is always exciting, which sh we’d come away with a win. I love this Sens group when pressure is high, look for a great game 3 in Ottawa.
perhaps I’m grasping at straws here, but desperate times call for desperate measures: I’m thinking they were down 2-0 in the game last night and managed to claw back in…perhaps being down 2-0 in the series the Sens can also claw back in(?) Go Sens!
Sens need a huge game from Ulmark and Tkachuk
#FreeLeevi
Last nights game was a better representation of how close the teams really are. The Sens nerves lost the first game. "You're not in trouble until you lose at home". The Sens have shown they can be dominant at home and can string wins together. If the boys can take care of business at the CTC and go back to Toronto tied 2-2 would change this entire series.
Drake is huge at 6’3” but played like he was 3’6” 😢
Leevi in nets please. We need a change. Linus looks so shaky, he can't even make an easy glove save.
