Wasn't it you that claimed that Ottawa fans, unlike Leaf fans, support the players on their team? And wasn't that claim made in reference to Phaneuf? Wasn't it you that claimed Duchene was a significant upgrade over Turris? Wasn't he supposed to be the guy that would let you make a run for the cup? Wasn't it you that claimed that Karlsson was arguably the best player on the planet? Wasn't it you that claimed that the Ottawa forwards were great two way players whose defence more than made up for the lack of goals that they score? Just asking...

Lol!!!! Ottawa is going to the bottom of the barrel for a long, long time. You can't say we didn't try to warn you Matt. We told you Phaneuf was brutal, we told you Ottawa had mostly third line forwards, and we told you last years playoff run was just a hot goalie at the right time...but nooooooo lol Come back to the light Matt! Do it before your team packs its bags and moves to Seattle or Quebec...you gonna cheer for a losing US team or a losing team that only wants a French coach?? Hahaha I can see it now....Karlsson gets traded for picks and Phaneuf takes over as captain!! Go away Sens Go!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do support my team, thus me being at the game last night lol Duchene has not lived up to his billing or expectations for sure. What the heck is with that? Plays like a fourth liner for us! Karlsson is still top 3 or 4. The whole team has no confidence, last nights game was proof of that! Again,,,,,,no confidence on the team. How a team goes from second overtime loss in the conference finals that would have had them in the cup series to this is beyond me! IMO the character of the team was altered with Methot and Turris traded. You can tweak a team here and there but when you upset the chemistry , you are going in the wrong direction.

Dorion has screwed things up big time. Re: "How a team goes from second overtime loss in the conference finals that would have had them in the cup series to this is beyond me!" It Ottawa's case, it's because it was a complete fluke that they got that far in the first place. Think about, two or three weeks before the end of the season it looked like they were going to miss the playoffs altogether. Two or three days before the end of the season, it looked like they might face the Leafs in the first round. We all know how Leafs/Senators play off series end. They obviously were not the one of the top two teams in the conference last year. This year's play is probably a better reflection of the team's skill level than last year's fluky playoff run. Did they have a choice on Methot? Is there someone else they could have left unprotected instead of Methot? I do recall reading some articles from analysts early in the season. They claimed that Ottawa shouldn't be doing as well they had at the that point. Although, they did mention that Ottawa may surprise us and make the playoffs. They also said that Montreal should be doing better than they were. Maybe they were on to something. Re: "I do support my team, thus me being at the game last night lol" - When did you buy the ticket? Before or after they went to Sweden?

Maybe the Leafs should have disbanded the entire team for 38 years like the Senioritas did!!! Imagine that?? Nobody ever CARED that the team disappeared for 38 years! Ottawa has set the bar for a team that hasn't won since the 20's, can't sell tickets, can't create an ounce of fan loyalty and stay tuned...is going to leave Ottawa yet AGAIN!!!' Ottawa sucks on so many levels it's staggering. Karlsson( the worlds best player lol) is playing like crap because he can't wait to get out of there! Even the owner wants out!!! That city doesn't deserve a team...send them packing. It's obvious the "fans" don't care and the way the players embarrass themselves on a nightly basis, they don't care either.

Pigeontroller Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Entertaining game. Good goal tending both ends, Mathews and Nylander, nuff said. Good on Kadri for dropping the gloves with the giant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris.brock Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 Jumbo Joe is a jumbo pussy cat for picking on the much smaller Kadri. Martin should have got in Joe's face later in the game, I'm pretty sure the big pussy would have ran away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acountdeleted Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 I wonder what team Matt will jump to when Ottawa sucks for the next 15 or so years. I hear Winnipeg is doing well. XD XD Can't believe Kadri tore off part of Thorntons beard. Never seen that before. Leafs were due for a win over the sharks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Acountdeleted Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 We've already had so many bandwaggon jumpers when we drafted Auston Matthews, then when we made the playoffs.

chris.brock Posted January 5, 2018 Report Share Posted January 5, 2018 In an interview Kadri said he wasn't given much of a choice because Jumbo pussy basically said "after the puck drops, it's go time" Jumbo has a bit of a history of picking on the meek. Doughty has one career fight, here's the video,Jumbo pussy dummies him- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
