Well, boys. At least the one thing you are doing right this season is playing spoiler. And putting one more dagger in the heart of the Habs' playoff hopes is...fine by me actually.
So a goaltending clinic this was not, but the Senators are once again going nuts on the shot-clock it seems (If you guys witnessed the tilt on Tuesday between the Sabres and the Senators. I myself, was not and that is why there was no post-game for it as I was off getting silly for St. patty's day). Carey Price was yanked after letting 3 of 15 shots in the second period while Cory Clouston let Brian Elliott tough this one out and he did come up with the W, which set a franchise record for the most consecutive wins by a rookie goaltender.
The big guns were firing for the Senators tonight as Jason Spezza scored two and Daniel Alfredsson also contributed. Nick Foligno continues to flourish under Clouston as well. Other things that have been clicking for the Senators lately has been their special teams as their PP went 2-for-2 and their PK was absolutely perfect.
So, what does this mean? Well, the hockey is good again which is no complaint on mine and I do admit that it would be absolutely HILARIOUS if the Habs missed the post-season this year so heck, I'm not complaining. I guess you'll just have to take these wins for what it is. Is it terrible for me to just want this team to be mathematically eliminated already so we can stop having our hopes inflated and having them dashed unceremoniously come April? Is this what being a Kings fan feels like? (No offense, Kings fans. You know I love you)
