they are committed to their system, they create tons of turn over and counter attack, it's working for them.

Yep. I'm not angry about the way the Senators play. It's working for them. I imagine teams will figure Boucher out eventually. They did in Tampa.

Yep. What, are we supposed to be sorry that it isn’t strategic to let Matthews and Nylander get all the odd man rushes?

Honestly, I think bad passing by TO has as much to do with the score than the system

Just saying that we can pretty much forget about our goalie stealing us a win in games like this. Dude's always going to need beaucoup run support for us to win.

We're playing like poop, no question, but dude, this is pretty (frank)ing boring. I don't know about you guys, but free time on a Saturday night has an opportunity cost to it, and this is not worth it.

Toronto is always sloppy. They can just make up for it with skill.


When they get themselves together, they’ll be even more dangerous.

The Sens really don't care if you are entertained or not, they are after the 2pts, nothing else.

Don't know, but if he's not going to hulk smash some guys, I'd rather see Leivo out there shooting from everywhere.

Agreed. Sloppy in the neutral zone, can't get into the ozone. Sens doing good job clogging it up. When Leafs have been able to get in they've been able to get some chances, just haven't gotten there enough.

I thought the refs were not letting up on slashing.

Lots of holding and interference but I guess the Sens hide it well. Good for them...I guess.

This hockey style is hard to watch, I’m having 90’s Devils flashbacks.

Agreed. Komo has honestly been invisible. I keep forgetting he's on the team.

Of course not, but I can gripe about it on here. You can't take that away from me you red loving commie bastard.
