Well, we tried to stay semi-awake. Tried, that is, for all of about 5 minutes. At least it wasn’t a shutout, I guess? Yeah, we’ll go with that. Our shutout-less streak has been extended. Hey, when your team’s hanging out in last place, you find your highlights where you can.… Read the rest

I had to read the score twice to make sure. And a third to make double sure I wasn’t losing my mind. We actually managed to pull off a win. In the shootout. Against a team that tries very hard not to suck. We still don’t have a chance in … Read the rest

It took overtime to barely squeak out a win against the Devils on Thursday. And it was only kind of meh at that–though, likely, that’s more to do with the team. Kessel does that scoring thing again, and we’re actually winning more than we’re losing for a change. Okay, I … Read the rest

Okay, so I’ve been kind of unavailable for the last… well, several days. Okay, more like a week. Okay, a week exactly. The why is coming. As for right now, it’s all about the hockey. Because I said so. And, right now, it’s all about the Ottawa Senators, and how … Read the rest

Where was our winning streak? I think it went that way. We scored the opening goal, and… um… that was, well, it. They spent the next two periods–sorry, 2 and a half–pounding us. Best thing about the game? It was almost non-stop. Worst part about the game? Um. See season, … Read the rest

Most goals scored by this team all season, high energy, young players, yada yada yada. I still can’t get excited. Yeah, it’s our third win in a row. But the game didn’t really make much difference for either team. Both are still out of the playoffs. And the only thing … Read the rest

So they do remember how to do the more than one win in a row shpeel. Who’d of thunk it? And in overtime, too–something they’ve rather sucked at all year. Again, who’d of thunk it? Now if only it actually mattered. Still, it’s nice to see them starting to play … Read the rest

Well now, would you look at that. A win, and a rare one at that. Even more so seeing as it’s in overtime. I’d pretty much accepted they’d forgotten how to do that, and then last night, they proved me wrong. Now if I could just work up the energy … Read the rest

Sigh. Again. We did almost tolerably well. Until the third period. Again. A minute and 16 apart, they managed to throw two behind us–that sunk us. Not that we weren’t sunk before that, but that pretty much guaranteed we weren’t going to be surprised. I used to look forward to … Read the rest

It was a hell of a close game. Sens draw first blood, Leafs somehow manage to come back, lots of people having face first meetings with the boards. Or, in some cases, the opposing team’s fists. And still, even though it was Ottawa, and even though we won–in a shootout … Read the rest
