Sens give the Blues the... erm... blues (shit!)


The really shitty part about living in TO and NOT having centre ice is that there are about 5 Senators games on TV this season. That being said, I have become a fan of online streaming. Last night was one that I had been looking forward to, as my Alfie 3rd jersey AND my David Backes Blues jersey both arrived within the last week. This Blues team is a VERY young team, who make a lot of rookie mistakes, but mark my words, in a couple seasons this division will be the most competitive in hockey, and damn they are just fun to watch. Last night, those rookie mistakes came back to haunt them as the Sens walked out of the Scottrade Centre with a hard fought 3-1 victory.

THE APPETIZER:

The Sens are trying to keep momentum up as they make their push to the playoffs. You could see the intensity in their skating during the warm-up, and you just KNEW they were piecing this thing together. Three months too late, but it’s a start.

THE MAIN COURSE:

Since it seems to finally be in season, I’ll have the FISH please, with a healthy side of TOI and the rosemary potatoes. Fishy Fishy Fishy, where have you been all season dude. You have the ability to be one of the best two-way threats in the league. 20 goals, and a Selke nomination year in-year out should NOT be out of the realm of possibility. Two goals including a shorty, and more intensity than I’ve seen from the ENTIRE TEAM on some nights, I hope you can keep this up.

DESSERT:

Well done Pete. Good hustle, good hands, you’ve got a future here kid.

HAIR IN THE SOUP:

Why do the D-Mean need to take a nap for the last 5 minutes of the 2nd EVERY night? They clearly need to go to IKEA, where all Almtorp mattresses and frames are on sale.

So there you have it. Next up, the BJs in C-BUS (or however you crazy kids say it these days…)
