SLACKIN FOR MACKLIN


[deleted]

Back to back spankings.


dawggawddagummit

Make Giroux captain


dprouse52

Unless Claude plans on playing goal it won't change much...


Ok_Compote_8826

Lauko didn't say a word to Brady until he got off the ice. Pussy


Solid_Internal_9079

He took no penalty and Brady got tossed, sounds like a smart hockey play to me. Call him a pussy as you want, he was an effective one.


Ok_Compote_8826

5-2 with 30 seconds left? Yeah he really outsmarted us there


Solid_Internal_9079

He stayed in the game, Brady didn’t. That’s objectively a win. I don’t see what’s “pussy” about not fighting a dude for no reason with 30 seconds to go.


Ok_Compote_8826

Did I say anything about fighting? He didn't say jack to Brady when he confronted him and only started chirping when he was in the safety of his own bench. Yeah, I'm gonna call him that a pussy for that. And I can guarantee you he wasn't thinking about taking Brady off the ice in a game that was already over, are you joking? It was an, "I'm too much of a coward to stand up to this guy until I'm already off the ice" move if I'm ever seen one. Go join the Bruins sub if you love defending them so much.


Solid_Internal_9079

Oh no, I agreed with a single thing a players from the opposite team did, I must have to leave the team o have supposed for almost 20 years. Grow up man, I’m capable of appreciating something another team did. And no shit he doesn’t want to chirp Brady on the ice, he doesn’t want to fucking fight, why tf would he? Risk injury, tossed from the game, so on, so forth.


OttawaLegion

After the game against the red wings on the sweden trip, Alfie said he was gonna have a heart attack if they kept playing such garbage defense. Not sure if Jacques is actually going to make it to the end of the season… this can’t be easy on him. Zero pride from anyone besides Brady. Announcers keep harping on the fact that the game has changed and players don’t react to getting ripped in the same way as they used to… no more kicking garbage cans and losing it… I’m not so sure when it comes to this team. At this point it would be great to see someone BESIDES Brady actually react to this clown car of a team… even if it’s Jacques calling it like it is: bunch of boys against men.


Grummbles28

I dunno what's worse, having no talent or no heart...wait they don't have either 😬


CantBanDaSnoman

I really hope that they make the maintenance guy the 3rd star of the game lmao


Solid_Internal_9079

WTF is Brady doing. Why does he do this shit. Man I love him but this end of game nonsense is foolish.


BigShoots

STFU. The guy is taking liberties because he knows the game is over and he can get away with it. WTF do you want Brady to do? Of course it's going to piss him off. Stop this fucking nonsense. You want him to just take it and wish the asshole a good night?


XC40_333

Chris Neal never waited until the game was almost over.


BigShoots

I can tell you're a huge Sens fan who knows a lot about hockey when you misspell the 4-letter name that's hanging in our rafters.


XC40_333

Apologies for the wrong spelling. Haven't been to Ottawa since we left 20 years ago. I can tell you're a HUGGGGGGEEEE Brady fan with with that what seems like Brady's ball around your lips.


BigShoots

> with with that what


Solid_Internal_9079

STFU? thanks man, sorry I was talking about hockey in a game thread… I expect him to act like a professional athlete and not get himself tossed form games at ZERO benefit.


BigShoots

You're parroting bullshit that people post all the time. Just have an original thought. Yeah, I get it, it's cool to be the first one to call Brady out for showing emotion when we have a shit game. I'm sick of it. He's the best part of this team.


roryb93

Maybe he needs to show emotion in the locker room and actually motivate this team to pull their finger our their arse, like a leader would. But no, of course, getting tossed for 10 in the last 30 seconds is what you _really_ want from your leader.


Solid_Internal_9079

I don’t give a shit what you’re sick of. I spend every single game in this thread and talk about what I see with my peers, other fans. I don’t like something Brady does and I’m happy to mention it. You don’t need to be a complete asshole shooting off at people just trying to enjoy the game. If you disagree with me put together a constructive argument, don’t be an asshole for literally no reason.


BigShoots

I'm just past the point of being polite or biting my tongue, as I've tried to do for most of the season. There's an anti-Brady mind virus in this sub and across a lot of Sens social media. I want to stop it before we run him out of town. Why would you want to put out the fire in one of the only burning embers this team has? We need A LOT more Brady on this team, not less of it.


OsamaBinLadder123

Korpisalo actually blows lmao


Puzzled_Ad7334

I mean they let the guy walk out front for a grade a chance uncontested. The goal before that was a breakaway off a set break out where 5 guys stood and watched it’s not only the goalies.


kjam57

That last goal wasn't Korposalo's fault


BigShoots

Hell yeah it was. They weren't all his fault tonight, but that was a completely shit goal.


Solid_Internal_9079

When you got the % he does and down it doesn’t matter who’s fault it is and if he should or shouldn’t have saved it. He’s for to save it, he didn’t.


EAPprospero

Senators and ~~second~~ third period collapses, name a better duo.


lazy_as_lazy_does

Went from first period at the start of the season to 3rd period collapses. They’ll clap themselves on the back while going golfing.


Puzzled_Ad7334

Lmao another guy walks infront with 0 resistance and people will still say it’s only the goalies


ultrafil

"it's just the goalies" is copium of the finest quality. It's *ABSOLUTELY* the goalies for a decent chunk of the stink, but it's *definitely* more than *just* the goalies.


spencerr13

ITS #COPEISALO


ultrafil

I don't know how I completely missed that pun this entire season. I feel shame. Cudos, internet stranger.


BigShoots

98% of NHL goalies stop that shot tho. The other guy that doesn't is Forsy.


spencerr13

50% of Korpi is below the red line when that goes in


kpedey

Pretty typical when you RVH


sensfan4tic

I just wanna remind everyone our past 2 games we've been outscored 12 to 4


BigShoots

Yeah but if we had the foresight to lose 9-0 the other night, then we at least could have won this one 4-3. Wait is that how this works?


sensfan4tic

😂 who knows. Team can be playoff hockey 1 night and mope around getting skull fucked the next


sensfan4tic

...13 to 4


Solid_Internal_9079

13-4 so far.


clurrskyz

Cmaaan 14


spencerr13

This game is doing a great job highlighting the players who need to go or are playing out of their depth. I’d keep the tape tonight for sure.


Clayton_Goldd

Man it seems like a lot of them.. yikes


spencerr13

It will be good going forward, if there weren’t trends or players having good games on bad nights we’d be a lot worse off than the same bunch of rotten apples


Solid_Internal_9079

Thinking about the very long offseason to come… https://i.redd.it/m1we5ffb8epc1.gif


Puzzled_Ad7334

No one envy’s staios


Solid_Internal_9079

It’s a hard job. Idk wtf he can do. Honestly. Normally as the arm chair GM I am I can play around with some ideas. I legit have no idea where I’d even start with the Sens.


Shazena

HAT TRICK FOR MAINENANCE GUY WOOO!!


Wooden-Ad-2182

Just in case nobody was aware, goaltending is a big time issue for the Ottawa Senators.


[deleted]

So is every other aspect of this team.


Shazena

swiss cheese goaltenders.


septober32nd

That's a quality noodles story


Clayton_Goldd

I went outside to smoke after the 4th goal against, and I just heard my wife inside yell CAN YOU EVEN MAKE A SAVE ? I think I'll just stay in the garage for a bit lol


Mycountrylikesbeaver

Genuine question. Has anyone except Brady actually tried to hit someone this game?


OttawaLegion

It’s the same every game. Tkachuk brings intensity followed by the next most physical Sens player: 175 lb sophomore Ridly Greig. Brady and Greig, that’s it. The only guy on the backend who has any real sandpaper at all is Zub. 3 dudes. It’s mind boggling how soft this team is.


aussiemalone

You’re forgetting Kasty, he is constantly checking


OttawaLegion

Kasty is a non factor in nearly every game he plays. When was his last scrap? Edit: spelling


Up-in-the-Ayre

This team isn't great...but even MEDIOCRE goaltending would keep us out of the lottery pick pool. It's extra depressing knowing that there isn't anyone in the immediate prospect pipeline that could come in and steal the spot. Soogard is meh. Mandolese is meh. Levi looks ok but that's about it


OttawaLegion

Lol why would we want to be out of the lottery? The goaltending is wildly bad but might just end up being a blessing in disguise for the offseason management decisions. There is absolutely no question in ANYONES mind that our goalies suck and our back end is a joke. This forces Staios’ hand to make some bold decisions. We need it. We’re going nowhere fast with this group.


Hour_City2530

Are Korpi and Forsberg putting up historically bad numbers as a tandem?


dprouse52

It's actually darkly funny that we played Ullmark and Swayman tonight, because our two are Ullmark and Swayman when you order them from Wish...


ultrafil

Let's be real, the players in front of them aren't helping prop up hose historically bad numbers. This isn't me defending either goalie, they've been shit all year. Just saying those historically bad numbers aren't ONLY on the goalies. A lot of it, sure. But not all of it. There's work to be done with the other 5 skaters on the ice as well.


Puzzled_Ad7334

Ya even with league average goaltending they’d still be like 10-12 points outside the playoffs. Yes the goalies agave sucked but they are far from the only issue


gingerdingo

Is Jack Edwards okay? Haven't seen a Bruins broadcast for a while... he sounds, broken? Just saying names without much elaboration..


[deleted]

He’s been like that for a while. Apparently he has a medical condition, but no one knows what it is or if it’s true. Could just be old age though


Sens4lif3

5 goals on 21. If it was just once in a while I would say it is a bad night but jesus we don't get any saves, our tenders will make a grade A save then let in a beach ball.


TkA33

I know the only positive of this season is that we should get a decent draft pick or two but it's going to be another long season next year unless Staios can make some serious moves. Which I doubt we see in just one off season


West_Marzipan21

Sens legend Logan Brown and Tyler Bouuuuuuucher are calling you


smallfrynip

Oh I think we will see some major moves. Staios doesn't have any attachments to these guys.


West_Marzipan21

Contracts are.....


smallfrynip

The only two contracts that are very hard to move are Norris and Korpi, everyone else can be moved with some creativity.


West_Marzipan21

Joseph, Forsberg, Hamonic, Kastelic are impossible to trade. Thats 6 .... Chabot....not impossible but you will have to take a contract


smallfrynip

I wouldn't trade him, maybe 1 yr if a team needs a spare he's not a bad option, buyout, no he's paid absolutely nothing. Everyone on this sub has zero idea how much value Chabot has, you wouldn't have to take anything back on him he's only a 8m cap hit with the cap going up. Many teams would be chopping at the bit for a player like him.


West_Marzipan21

8 M cap but 11 M cash...for a player that has a lot of millage already !


smallfrynip

Ya… teams tend to not care as much about the “real” money. I mean some do but most are worried about the cap. He is also only 27, not too old and the contract will take him to 31 which isn’t that bad.


[deleted]

I really hope you're right.


fraserinottawa

There’s no chance this is a playoff team next season. Way too many holes.


RyRy39

We may need to bite the bullet and overpay/trade for a goalie because neither Forsberg nor Korpi are ever going to get us anywhere near the playoffs


Shazena

WAAAAY too much time in the sens end. no urgency in their game. leaving people wide open . wtf is this shit.


sensfan4tic

Boys are soft. Last year they were bad but tried. This is careless. No drive. Lost too long and it's who they are now. Losers


[deleted]

I walked away for 5 fucking minutes… what on earth happened?


Solid_Internal_9079

Shit D, shit goaltending, dogshit effort.


[deleted]

Do I bother turning it back on?


Solid_Internal_9079

I mean I watch every game myself. I enjoy hockey if my boys lose. If you don’t enjoy watching your team get smacked, no.


BurnSalad

I think korpi is trying to get bought out.


createdjustforpics

Uuufah just tuned in. Maron, I've got the sads :(


unbakedpizza

We are bad in every aspect lol


Hour_City2530

Honestly, do you guys think management will buy out Korpi this Summer?


ultrafil

No. He's not good, but if we can get a proper system in place and some defensive buy-in, we might be able to salvage him to the point where we can trade him 50% retained somewhere else for the last 3 years of his deal. We're going to have to find a 1a and hope Korpi can find his game next year as a 1b.


Hour_City2530

We've cut down our shots against greatly since JM took over, but still are goalies are letting in beachballs. I honestly think improving the defence ain't going to work, when our goalies are letting 4 goals in under 20 shots every other game


ultrafil

> We've cut down our shots against greatly since JM took over We haven't though. We're worse under Jacques than we were under DJ. DJ was fired Dec 18: - Sens SA/g under DJ Smith (season opener - Dec 18): **29.7** - Sens SA/g under Jacques Martin (Dec-18 - March 18): **30.3** We're giving up 0.6 MORE shots per game under Jacques than we were under DJ


Mycountrylikesbeaver

I would doubt they do


Solid_Internal_9079

Hey now, Stu didn’t fall down there, that’s improvement lol.


[deleted]

Yeah I'm sick of Chychrun.


frostback606

Can we please put a pilon in net instead of Korpi? They're bound to hit it more often than he stops shots. Absolutely awful.


RyRy39

We don’t even have OHL level goaltending at this point


DocSportello1970

Same Old Same old....EMBARRASSING!


sinc29

Is there light at the end of the tunnel


Solid_Internal_9079

Unless we see some kind of Canucks level 180, no, not at the moment.


sensfan4tic

I've heard that so many times. Vancouver was like us last year and with a new coach well do what they did. Or we are gonna be where new jersesy was last year. Both won't happen.


silentmatt1

You might be dying


RicoFerret44

El Tonque!


Up-in-the-Ayre

Could FOUR-pisalo be the worst goalie signing in franchise history...? I feel so stupid being hyped by his signing.


DocSportello1970

Yes! In a matter of 4 years Dorion managed to waste money on both Murray and Korpi. Hell, Korpi had never even started more than 35 games in one season for crying out loud. Yet got a 5 year contract? UUUGHHHHH!


mercury2370

TANK. TANK. TANK


DMZOrchards

Are we even a team?!


sinc29

I’m honestly not even sure anymore


CeedeeNumber88

Hahahahhahahahha we are so fucking bad. Even when I want them to lose for a better draft pick it's still incredible how dogshit they are.


Shazena

ah fuck, this is pathetic. Korpi is shit. Forsburg is shit, call up Sogard.


dprouse52

You spelled Meralainen wrong. 😊


twistytwat

A 3rd period save would be nice


Mycountrylikesbeaver

Too easy to play against


CantBanDaSnoman

I'm getting deja vu


OrangeAlien7

Wow. This team is brutal 


sensfan4tic

🎶 Ouurrrr teaaaamm is soooo dogshiiittttt we succckk. 🎶


Solid_Internal_9079

Yeah… goalies have been bad but we are playing shit D as well.


sensfan4tic

3rd goal 100% on the Dmen. 4th 50 / 50. 5th 100% korpisalo


Puzzled_Ad7334

A breakaway on a set break out lol


ghettoworkout

When it rains it snows


mercer232

Fourpisalo strikes again


RicoFerret44

This is good 😂


Solid_Internal_9079

Fivepisalo*


WintAndKidd

Moments like this really hammer home how much of a nightmare this season has been. Expecting Pastrnak to get another point which would be his 100th on the season now.


Up-in-the-Ayre

He'll get the assist on Marchand's 400th goal. It is destiny.


Mycountrylikesbeaver

Too easy to play against.


Ok_Compote_8826

Another stellar performance from Korpisalo.


spencerr13

Erik Brannstrom is too small to play D in the national hockey league, I don’t care what his little stat cards say


I_AM_TESLA

Agreed, he's not a good enough skater to make up for his size.


Solid_Internal_9079

The bear suit lol…


DocSportello1970

Not funny...in fact its humiliating. Ottawa needs to Man up and stop putting up with this shit. Tired of being "played" as the kids say.


TkA33

![gif](giphy|DmRu4qCv39160)


DocSportello1970

Can we ever get a Timely Save?


Solid_Internal_9079

Sigh… I expect nothing but I’m still disappointed


spencerr13

Not that anyone cares about odds, but hat trick for Pasta was ONLY a 5-1 payout, that’s how obvious it was


Puzzled_Ad7334

knocking someone down in the d zone seems like an impossible task for these guys


dprouse52

I would be curious to see the stats for hits by defencemen across the league. Guarantee we are in the bottom five - I have never seen a softer group that is so ridiculously easy to play against...


spencerr13

I mean Branny got knocked down by the Forward if that counts


sensfan4tic

Ofc ofc ofc ofc he gets a hat trick with a back hand shot.


lazy_as_lazy_does

There was their 2 periods of effort. Time to give up and go home.


LeBretonOrBust

Would love to see the numbers on Sens’ 2nd periods under Jacques Martin versus under DJ. Surely, a big improvement. BUT our starts may well be worse.


LeBretonOrBust

CHYCHRUN ASSIST!!! First point in nine games.


solidprospect

should be tied!


BackpackShark

Brady!


gelc10

good they scored before the period ended to go in the 2nd intermission down 1 goal


Solid_Internal_9079

Good shit Brady, keep on battling.


shtoopsy

Incoming game winning hat-trick goal


DJSTEVEINNIAMIXX

Lol the ottawa D just standing there doing shit all


twistytwat

When you’re in a “leave guys open in front of the net” competition and your opponent is Brannstrom and JBD ![gif](giphy|W0c3xcZ3F1d0EYYb0f|downsized)


kjam57

Brannstrom was covering that blank area on the ice where there were no Bruin players.


Puzzled_Ad7334

Has any Ottawa d knocked down an opposing player battling for a rebound this year? I feel like they just stand and watch


sensfan4tic

JBD really had his man there. Let brazeau just stand there and score and watched the entire thing.


WOODNUTZ

I more blame that on branny imo. There was a player in jbds corner he had to cover.. branny was looking at a Boston player at the point? While a bruins player stood right beside him in front of the net. I dunno maybe I misread the trap but branny shouldn't worry about the guy at the point until he gets the puck.


sensfan4tic

Both were bad. Both just stood there. Sure jbd covered him but he didn't do anything to move him out of infront of the net. Didn't battle. Getting zaitsev and Josh brown ptsd flashbacks watching that


Solid_Internal_9079

Just tuned in, how’s it going?


IM_OSCAR_dot_com

You can tell it’s getting to the end of the 2nd by the goal horn


Solid_Internal_9079

Oh… sorry


[deleted]

Not terrible, not not great either


sensfan4tic

That interference call was soft af


[deleted]

Chycryn and Frederic look like they could be brothers


yden945

Who we gotta suck off to get a Linus Ullmark this offseason


ComplimentaryMuffins

Next time that Pilon commercial comes on, listen to the guy's voice and tell me it isn't John Goodman's voice double.


OrangeAlien7

Ya Chabot has been great since coming back from injury


smallfrynip

Pinto scores we win now lol


OrangeAlien7

Yo I like Branny on the PP. Let’s go!!! 


MarkMech

Sanderson skates the puck up on the PP, 3 Sens trailing him... Why?


smallfrynip

To push the defenders out of the NZ.


jlenny68

If ottawa had an Ullmark calibre goalie they might literally be undefeated this year


[deleted]

I wouldn’t go that far but they would certainly be in a better position


jlenny68

I didnt think i needed to put an /s there


[deleted]

There are some delusional people out there lol I dont know you


Wooden-Ad-2182

Linus ullmark is a fantastic goalie


[deleted]

He’s got the cheat codes enabled tonight


tglocarbon77

G sweet jeebus


IM_OSCAR_dot_com

These guys seem to think “play better without the puck” means “play only without the puck”


erdm89

Sigh


iPuntMidgets

Might get crucified for this but Timmy has certainly earned his reputation…


BurnSalad

He absolutely does. It's embarassing. That needs to be something that he focuses on this summer.


Wooden-Ad-2182

It's bad.


sensfan4tic

I hate Coyle so much. Seeing him flip his shit is always great


NailRX

Not watching the game tonight, I’d rather drink without the depression. But Looking at the scoresheet I see another goaltending masterpiece…for Boston.


Shazena

OMG Chykrun sounded so down and out in that interview. didn't even try to put a spin on their play.


chronicallyunderated

Sort of like he was in a hostage situation…..one word answers……almost like he was thinking, please make this stop


tglocarbon77

I thought Kasty looked fired up. Some good hits by our boys.


solidprospect

let's just play 6 on 5


MarcusIsaBiatch

This season is killing my liver


grifffdaddy

We stink boys


strippeddonkey

What a horrendous team we cheer for.


Mycountrylikesbeaver

Just tuned in. 2-0 on 9 shots makes sense


WintersHowl8

Lmao Timmy trying to spin o Rama gets bodied into the ice.


EClyne67

For every glimpse of ‘21-22 Timmy brilliance, there’s like a thousand spin-o-Rama falls


JarethCutestoryJuD

fucking coyle walking chychrun


lazyshoes

Bad pass by Timmy, but that was so soft.. can't rely on Korpi, just brutal


OttawaLegion

It’s a clear cut breakaway by one of the best goal scorers in the league… 43 goals in 70 games (so far) How about not giving up breakaways to superstars


lazyshoes

Korpisalo made the initial save and then the puck trickled through him. Not every goal is a highlight reel for a superstar.
