I love all these newbies coming and hating on the Sens.

Let the salt flow, motherfuckers.

 

[excelsiorlef]

This is the series I feel the Pens will miss Letang most

 

[mo60]

The instant the Penguins were struggling to put away the President's Trophy winners? You knew then, eh?

Yep. I actually expected the penguins to win before that series reached 7 games.I think the sens have a 30% chance of winning this series at this point.

He's gotten every series wrong so far, at least the ones involving the Ducks.

 

[KaYotiX]

When u go 0/5 on the PP, u deserve to lose

 

[Eclectic Jabber Monkey]

Ah yeaaaaah!!! We want the cup, we want the cup!

Where was the SNES are boring shit during that Rangers series lol

Thins is the Bobby I thought we'd be getting for Silf. Finally

 

[excelsiorlef]

Yep.

Sens played excellent team D.

I could bitch and say how bad the Pens played but it was the Sens' full team D that made them play bad.

Can the Sens sustain it? Who knows. We'll see.

 

[Pikma]

Dang. Missed it. Ah well. On to game 2. Play more interesting hockey, Sens. :-/ Congrats on game one.

Score more goals, Pens :-/

 

[Smiley90]

SNEEEEEEESS

 

[excelsiorlef]

Wonder if the Pens go with Streit on the blueline Monday. Could use another more offensive defenseman in there.

 

[mo60]

If the pens want to win this series they really need to weaken ottawa's defense and speed things up a bit.I hope the next game in this series is more exciting.

 

[Alucard]

Score more goals, Pens :-/

I don't need your logic!

I'm sorry guys. Any other year, I'd be perfectly fine with you guys bringing the cup to the nation's capital (facing this exact scenario with the Habs knocked out). But even though I'm rooting for you guys to beat the Pens, if the Preds make it to the finals, I need Subban to win. Those kids at the Montreal Children's Hospital deserve to have the cup brought to them. Plus I need to see what happens to Bergevin lol.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

If my team won with boring hockey, I'd be thrilled. Karlsson is pretty good. Will trade a pick for him.

Oh, no doubt. If you're on the winning side,
you don't care how boring your team played in the eyes of neutrals and the opposition.

 

[Cake Boss]

I'll respond to creeper tomorrow 😏

 

[Alucard]

Finally, I have a lot more faith in Sullivan than I did in Bylsma when it comes to adapting and making adjustments to match opponents. After this game, I'm sure the Pens will find a way to adapt and hopefully generate more early and often in game two.

 

[Foggy]

All that boredom salt is shameful

I think the Penguins will adapt and win the next game because of home ice advantage and better strategies to deal with ottawa's weaknesses and strengths but I still think this series will be a really close one.

welp time to sweat this fever? off >.<
smell ya weebs later

No

Creeper salt is always good salt

I do too. You don't get this deep in the playoffs without being a really good hockey team.

Aww thanks &#128525;

 

[mo60]

I also don't expect this series to be filled with injuries like the penguins vs caps series was at times.

 

[Foggy]

Broons suck, Rags are old and busted, BJs suck, Caps are genetically engineered to never get past the 2nd round, and LOL Alberta. I'm pretty sure the only good team is the Nashville Perdaters.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I'll respond to creeper tomorrow &#128527;

I bet you will and I bet you'll say "hurr durr the Montreal Canadiens suck because of Weber and Price and Galchenyuk is bust, Pacioretty is a shitty Captain and we made it farther than you in the playoffs and your lineup is full of fourth liners and 3rd liners."

Cake you're a good man. But your team is boring. But then you say " the Habs are boring too" that's a different kind of boring, that's the I can't score goals boring. The Sens problem is that you can score goals but you do it the most boring way possible.

Go Ducks and Predators. I'd take either of those teams.

...the Sens are still further along than the Habs. It's a legit argument.

...and all those things about the Habs' lineup are basically true.

Holy cow that bobby ryan backhand was powerful

To be fair, you guys were forced into not being boring by the fact that the Rangers were able to carve up the neutral zone trap pretty effectively for most of the series. The "boring" element of the Sens' game didn't work, so they had to pull shit out of their asses like scoring from the below the goal line and bottom sixers scoring 4 goals a night.

 

[Line_HTX]

Karlsson is doo-doo. Am I doin' it right?

To put your post a bit differently:

The Sens adapted to their opponent and ultimately won 4 of 6, partly thanks to strong secondary scoring and some clutch snipes from their captain.

I mean...Sens had 7 different players score in the final 2 games. So I wouldn't lean too heavily on them 'pulling shit out of their asses'.

I love all these newbies coming and hating on the Sens.

Yeah playing run and gun against pens would be an automatic loss. Sens play very smart. Hats off to them

BAAABBBYYYY

lovin all this salt. The new NJD? sounds good to me.

Pulled shit out of our asses for 4 games

First boston and Rangers were weak teams and now snes is boring. Salt is alltime high.

they got a banner up for him right?

 

[dr.rocktopus]

Play to win! It doesn't matter if it's boring if you win! The snes are not breaking any rules of the game or anything. The game doesn't have a concept of "cheap" or "boring", these are just things the viewers project.
