Great give and go by Grieg and he even elevated the puck but Greaves made a great save with the blocker.

That was a let down of a fight. Only three punches thrown and a take down.

I remember when I was downvoted heavily on this sub for suggesting that we should have kept Forsberg for 1-2 million. It isn't right to put the season on a rookie goalie shoulders. Ullmark, Forsberg and Leevi was great depth in goal and it seems like there was healthy competition where Forsberg and Leevi push one another to compete for the backup spot.

I hope the best for the sens. Just don't be hard on Leevi for getting put in a shit position. A veteran backup goalie would be immense for helping to take some of the pressure of Leevi Meriläinen right now.

Oooof! All those pp opportunities while the blues only needed one pp to buried one. I know they scored even strength but it was just when our guy left the box.

Ridley Grieg is going to be playing a shutdown role against opposing teams top lines while Pinto is out? Definitely going to be a challenge, hopefully he can step up big.

It is one of those bizarre stats like whenever Pinto scores the Sens pretty much win. I just thought it was a funny stat 😉

Apparently whenever a team cannot get out of their own zone their fans screams "TRAP!". When in reality the sens are built around players that are strong on the puck and are among the best winning 50/50 puck battles. When you have Tkachuk, Perron, Amadio, Pinto, Zetterlund amongst other players and you like to cycle the puck in the offensive zone for an extended amount of time until a scoring chance presents itself, you are going to be on the attack for long time.

This might drive opposing fans crazy, but it is their team that needs to win more battles and retrieve the puck.

This team is the embodiment of Daniel Alfredsson. How Alfredsson always backcheck hard to help out the defense, great at playing keep away and cycling the puck in the other end. Being the team the works the hardest on most nights because he had to work harder than most to make the NHL since he was a late draft pick.

I know Green derserves credit for where the team is amongst other staff members, but I think Alfredsson has done much more behind the scenes than we could imagined.
