Del Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 3-1 for the good guys after 2. Gerber looks solid in nets. Hopefully that trend continues throughout the season. Is it me or do the Leafs look a little flat? If this game is any indication of how their season is going to go (which, obviously, it is too soon to tell) then they have a tough year ahead of them.Go Sens go!
Del Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Posted October 5, 2006 4-1!!! Alfie scores a late gimme goal to seal the deal... Gerber looked solid throughout. The Leafs looked sub-standard as usual. I almost feel bad for Leafs fans. Almost.
rubberdinghy Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 Looks like we are off to a solid start...can't say the same for the Leafs...we'll see what happens tomorrow!
Booche Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 That score could have easily been reversed if it wasnt for Gerber. Then again, the Leafs are going to have a tough time getting goals this year if last night is any indication. Poor Mats Sundin, having to play with 2 stiffs.........again.3rd line for Ottawa looks fun. That's hockey!
PassedOutGuy Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 Yup I agree... Even after only one game id be ready to shop for a scorer for Sundin... Kubina should help the defense with his return tonight... im still excited about Maurice as coach... we'll see if he can turn em around...
ollie Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 BTW Del, when did you start liking the NHL again?
rubberdinghy Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 Ottawa has 3 solid lines IMO...Plus the top 2Schaffer,Fisher,AlfieSpezza,Heatley,EavesAwesome...The only thing that hurts is we are back to a D without Chara...now that Priessing and Corvo are hurt.
Diggzz Posted October 5, 2006 Report Posted October 5, 2006 Alexei Ponikarovsky is not a hockey player-that is all I have to say...

That guy is seriously faster than last year IMO... yeah the other team is going to get their chances... but the Sens played 'sloppy' last night, and still were the dominate team. That 3rd goal by Neil was the stuff that dreams are made out of.... 'Raycroft was PWND' I think the kids would say.
Del Posted October 5, 2006 Author Report Posted October 5, 2006 BTW Del, when did you start liking the NHL again?Last year... I like the "new" NHL. It's much better than the "old" NHL.
can-o-phish Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 Looks like we are off to a solid start...can't say the same for the Leafs...we'll see what happens tomorrow! Well, it's "tomorrow" and we're kicking your asses!!! Silly Sens fans...go piss and whine in the corner... Nottawa has great players...to bad your team S-U-C-K-S though...oh, sorry, forgot...the Sens are Choke-Meisters... And on a last note...it's great to hear more fans chanting "Go Leafs Go!" at the Corel Centre...
SmoothedShredder Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 ouch... tonite is starting to looks shabby for the Sens... It'd be nice if Heatley and Spezza could get some momentum going! Enjoy fans of leaves.
can-o-phish Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 SWEET!!! 4 NUTHIN' FOR THE LEAFS!!! Gettin' a little bit of what you gave last night Nottawa...how does that Humble Pie taste???
Del Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Posted October 6, 2006 I'll admit we look like shit... I hope they put Emery in for the start of the 3rd. Alfie, Spezza and Heatley need to step it up...
rubberdinghy Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 Interesting...I don't even know what to say...Toronto managed to equal its win total in the season series from a year ago, when the Leafs dropped seven of eight contests to the Senators.
Hal Johnson Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 (edited) Leafs won 6-0? Glad I didnt post anything stupid after last nights game, geesh. Oh, and Tak, it just wont be the same not being able to rub this one in in person. Edited October 6, 2006 by Guest
Del Posted October 6, 2006 Author Report Posted October 6, 2006 Oh, and Tak, it just wont be the same not being able to rub this one in in person. You never know... I might catch a game or two with you in person...
Whitey Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 It was only the 2nd game of the season, but what a great game last night. Gerber looked like sh*t. The mighty Sens were beaten in every aspect of the game. So many Sens fans and Leaf fans have been spouting off after one lost. Give me a break.

C'mon...it's hockey, it's the battle of Ontario and it's all just trash talking banter that's part of it... There's much more to come...
Kanada Kev Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 Wow ... i was suprised at the level of trash-talking around the net after Game 1 of the season. Made me laugh. Anyone predicting where teams will place in the new NHL, at this point in the season, is being completely naiive. Last night was a complete SPANKING of the Sens. Humbled has gotta be the theme in their dressing room for the next couple of days. Should be interesting to see how they recover from a defeat like that ... that will be a good barometer of what to expect for the rest of the season. The Leafs looked fantastic last night, IMHO. I know that every game won't be like that, but they dominated that game hands down. I love what Maurice is doing behind the bench. I love seeing Sundin on for so much more ice time than in the "Quinn era". Think about how much he could have done if he had been allowed to play more. What a shame. This year will be a stellar one for him. Wellwood on his wing is exciting to watch too. For a little guy, he can take the physical abuse too. Peca is a joy to watch as well. He will be a big asset to the team this year. When was the last time you saw the Leafs get 40 shots on net??!?!!? (and more than 30 in the previous game too!) Oh well, still basking in the glory of a stupendous Leaf victory. I'm sure it will fade in a few days. Got a call for GOLD SEATS for the Toronto v Montreal game this saturday and i can't go THAT SUCKS! Family can really get in the way of fun sometimes Later . . . Kanada Kev =8)
rubberdinghy Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 Ah...it's only 2 games in...we'll still win the season series....Toronto was due for a reg season win...that's all.
Whitey Posted October 6, 2006 Report Posted October 6, 2006 and then lose in the first round in the playoffs.
