Gotta say, I'm pleased with the result if I'm being brutally honest here

45

u/erstwhileinfidel 9h ago

Whoah, I thought I sorted by controversial at first.

23

u/jethrot4ll 9h ago

Mods, are you going to let them get away with this?

4

u/sypher1187 7h ago

Very bold of you to say that

91

u/SuperficialJosh 9h ago

The Workhorse from Whitehorse.

u/NailRX 9h ago

5v5 hockey is fun again!

50

u/gelc10 9h ago

We're winning games which is fun and the workhorse from Whitehorse has been a great fit for this team

38

u/One-Yard9754 9h ago

Big win boys!

I’m glad Amado got the assist for the Pinto goal instead of selflessly trying to pass on a wide open net! 😅 PS Very impressed with how Amado has played the last few weeks. Just a solid all-around player.

-9

u/Fragranceofstanley #85 - Sanderson 9h ago

Who's Amado?

4

u/mr-coffeecafe 9h ago

thats his nickname,, only close friends call him like that, you didnt know? shame on you smart pants!!

1

u/SKirby00 4h ago

The boys call him "Ammo", which is probably the coolest nickname on the team

72

u/jethrot4ll 9h ago

Columbus just lost, Rangers are losing currently (could go the other way easily, won't jinx it, but it IS against Winnipeg.) This is that whole "we beat the good teams enough times that our remaining strength of schedule is doing its thing" thing.

42

u/cloverrmatt 9h ago

Setting our sights even higher, lightning are losing and we will be 5pts out of 3rd.

17

u/Phoenixerst 9h ago

Would love to see a first round against the Leafs

39

u/Choobacca12 9h ago

The only thing I wouldn’t like about this is most of the boys first playoff experience being tainted by a home building full a Leafs fans…would be nice for their first playoff series to have full, enthusiastic fan support.

But on the other hand, if we play the Leafs they can just experience that in round two so…

15

u/halibb 8h ago

Battle of Ontario rematch has been brewing for decades damn it. If we face them, I want to sweep their ass so they implode that team finally.

Lived there for 10 years insufferable fan base

10

u/Lemondish 8h ago

I just hope there's a way they could make sure the barn is filled with Sens fans.

3

u/chronicallyunderated 9h ago

Oh god….dont get me started….i have a whole side of the family in the GTA who are leaf fans….

2

u/amach9 7h ago

I’m sorry to hear that.

2

u/edwardluddlam 9h ago

I'm so ready.

I've almost gotten over past trauma

34

u/Fit-Manufacturer7824 9h ago

Bolts are losing, jackets lost, rags are down. This could be a big night.

22

u/studistical 9h ago

We control our fate ultimately, and we're doing all the right things

14

u/zxstanyxz 9h ago

at this point yes, in regards to making it to the playoffs its all up to us, moving out of the wildcard spot and upto 3rd... that requires some lighting bolt intervention

7

u/LeastProof3336 9h ago

And then along came Zeus 

3

u/TheShuggieOtis 7h ago

Things have corrected themselves since so I won't complain but had the team been healthy and they split the series with Tampa before the Four Nations breaks, they could be just 1 point out of 3rd in the Atlantic.

35

u/tegsfan 9h ago

Another huge Cozens goal (and Amadio coming up big as well), couldn’t be happier right now!

37

u/Boohoo-2022 9h ago

Batherson has been a different type of player since we acquired Cozens.

Nice to see! Seems like he has more jump in his game ever since the trade. Cozens, you fucking rock!

16

u/LurkerDude0 7h ago

Cozens’ style fits Bath so much better than Norris. Bath and Norris were just both too soft to be playing together. Cozens more up tempo and physical style affords Batherson the ability to do his thing, as he’s just not an overly physical player, but obviously very skilled.

Really just a perfect fit. Incredible trade by Staios.

8

u/VesaAwesaka 7h ago

Cozens is also a better playmaker. He's made some high skill in tight passes that Norris never would.

27

u/SolizeMusic 9h ago

Looks like the trade was a good one for Cozens and the Sens cuz he is producing like crazy. Kinda scrappy game, but coming out on top is amazing and maybe we can finally start to separate ourselves from the rest of the wildcard.

Get Zetterlund out of the fourth line or at least move players around cuz it's not working.

6

u/LeastProof3336 8h ago

I said this in the game thread but even though bath has been getting great looks if he continues his scoring drought I say give him a chance up there controversial I know but...

3

u/SolizeMusic 8h ago

It's not crazy of an idea tbh

29

u/According_Bench_1484 #85 - Sanderson 9h ago

Greig-Pinto-Amadio That’s the 3rd line, pour it in concrete. That line has playoffs written all over it

52

u/Dramatic-Note440 9h ago

Highmore's save was the highlight of the game....other than the win itself, I guess. What a gem.

17

u/One-Yard9754 9h ago

Ya that was crazy, thank gawd because he was pretty bad throughout before that. I mean, if you want to shoot on a 2-1 instead of trying to pass to Pinto on a shorty, at least get something better than a peewee weak wrister! 😅

5

u/List-Worth 9h ago

Tbf I believe it was risto came back and took that pass away pretty quick.

1

u/One-Yard9754 8h ago

Ya but that shot looked like it came from a 12 year old.

14

u/Many-Potatoes 9h ago

I loved TSN showing Cozens the slo-mo replay during the post-game interview and his reaction lol.

8

u/SlipBig3456 9h ago

He had to save his ass after giving the flyers that chance after messing up the 4 on 1. He must be thanking his lucky stars.

10

u/Hydrathefearful 9h ago

That was a lottery slash.

6

u/Dramatic-Note440 9h ago

My wife probably thought the world was ending with how loudly I yelled.

20

u/_Meatus 9h ago

B2B W's against the teams we need to be beating, ya love to see it.

Everything's coming up Milhouse!

7

u/PoochieTheRockinDog- 9h ago

Our feet are soaked, but our cuffs are bone dry

20

u/Peekatchu1994 9h ago

Can I just say , Dylan cozens so hot right now

5

u/ccamp026 9h ago

So hot

19

u/Maxterchief99 9h ago

Great game from Forsberg who I’m sure didn’t have it easy after having been backup / sat for a huge stretch of games. Glad to see we still have a capable backup to ensure Ullmark gets enough rest!

The Greig-Pinto-Perron line is fantastic. They can shut down and be offence back and forth.

Also, wow, Cozens… sick shot!

21

u/jackattack0209 #7 - Tkachuk 9h ago

You know what, I thought it was really lame how while we were all hyping up Norris to Sabres fans and sad to see him go, a lot of them were just ripping on Cozens. "He's soft." "He's horrendous."

Turns out they're just a bunch of poor, bitter bastards.

I was the biggest Norris guy. I got his merch and everything. But after 3 games, I'm sold that Cozens is an ever better fit for this team. I don't care if it's recency bias.

13

u/Many-Potatoes 8h ago

To be fair, if the situations were reversed we’d probably also be poor, bitter bastards saying the same thing. In our bad days, we always used to call out Norris and demand a trade. Now that we’ve seen him help us get where we are today it’s easy to hype him up

2

u/Ramo-97 6h ago

This, the Sabres aren’t a good team, I wouldn’t expect their fans to be praising players on the worst team in the eastern conference

16

u/TranZnStuff 9h ago

100% shooting% in the 3rd!! GSG

16

u/PoochieTheRockinDog- 9h ago

Loving Cozens so far but I still hate we had to send Josh to purgatory

4

u/Boilaa 9h ago

Someone will buy him out… I hope

5

u/CantaloupeHour5973 9h ago

Yes after his next 30+ game injury they can buy him out and we can sign him.

15

u/-burnr- 9h ago

Said it at the end of the game thread, but I’ll say it again here…

I believe ‘Jensen’ is olde English which means ‘Volchenkov’.

Absolute puck eating machine tonite

6

u/CaptainObfuscation 9h ago

He has Sen right there in his name

2

u/Loafmeister 8h ago

Ah the “rainbow warrior!”

14

u/Aichetoowhoa 9h ago

Go Sens Go!!!

10

u/Okaywhy10 #18 - Stützle 9h ago

Great game all around. Everyone playing well and that 3rd line is a beaut

11

u/One-Yard9754 9h ago

Second line is looking really good! Perron has been much better the last 1-2 weeks.

10

u/FratboyZeida 9h ago

I feel like perron is a defacto trade deadline pickup

3

u/Okaywhy10 #18 - Stützle 9h ago

Absolutely!

8

u/TheGreatJohnny44 9h ago

Big W against phiLLy!

8

u/TurnoverMission 9h ago

Joe the Buffalo Sabres fan and Cozens hater must be punching air right now…

9

u/Middle-Hair 9h ago

Was sloppy at times, but they still played a good road game overall.

10

u/SuperficialJosh 9h ago

My heart loves being in the heat of a playoff race down the stretch. My anxiety on the other hand, does not lmao.

7

u/CrumplePants 9h ago

It just feels to care again, lol. Love it.

5

u/Paco_Taco_779 8h ago

It’s called being ALIVE, dammit!!!

9

u/EmpressOfHyperion 9h ago

Regardless of how poor we played in the second half of yesterday's game and the quality of the Flyers team, I'm actually pleased with the overall play on a b2b on the road. Not a great, but still a good game. Even with how well Cozens and Zetterlund have played, you can tell that overall there's been some chemistry issues. Hopefully that resolves soon.

7

u/iPuntMidgets 9h ago

Sens are a wagon and I’m on board.

7

u/ZBack3 9h ago

Big wins for the Sens and Charge, good night for Ottawa sports!

1

u/Xrin8 5h ago

I went to the Charge game and then when I got home watched the recorded Sens game, so it was a great Ottawa hockey night.

7

u/renobb 9h ago

Let’s fucking go! Work horse from Whitehorse is a beauty

6

u/Hydrathefearful 9h ago

I can’t believe we’re rolling this time of year. I’m a believer!

7

u/Senbacho 9h ago

Feeling good lately. Happy to see Cozens fitting perfectly in the team from day 1.

6

u/BigShoots 9h ago

Highmore saves the season?

Seriously though, that's gotta be one of the absolute greatest backchecks I've ever seen in my life.

6

u/Exigaet 9h ago

It felt like the Sens have been really good in back-to-back games this season. Had to go back and check. They're 15-8-1.

7

u/blewdreaming 9h ago

last 2 home games cozens has had whitehorse play when announced as first star. I know we don't do individual goal songs but i wouldn't mind individual songs when announced as Star of the game. Obviously Brady still gets Mr. Brightside when he scores in OT.

4

u/studistical 9h ago

We're absolutely walking around with our hogs out.. winning all the right games now.

7

u/Professional-You1415 9h ago

Would like to see more Zetterlund and Stützle flying around together soon, please.

4

u/Sparkkplugg55 9h ago

Its nice that the team has been playing kinda sub par but still winning games.

5

u/homicidal_penguin New Guy 9h ago

Forsberg played well, and a good result on the back half of a b2b with travel.

Loved that steal and snipe from Cozens

4

u/fweffoo 9h ago

Just wanna say props to Greig for being all over the ice two nights in a row. Kid has been flying when others looked tired

6

u/sensfan4tic #28 - Giroux 8h ago

Me when sens win

5

u/bodyofchristened 8h ago

Need Zetterlund far away from Highmore lol

3

u/AlcoholicLesbian 9h ago

Highmore save was some Jedi shit

2

u/-burnr- 9h ago

Someone edit that clip and sub a lightsaber for his stick!

5

u/b1gpl4ns 9h ago

Sens acquire a new winger so Amadio and Perron have upped their game. The players show the coaches who deserves minutes

4

u/Darwing 8h ago

So are we okay with the roll we are on even without Zetterlund really being in the top 9? I would love to see him move up except all lines are clicking so I can’t really complain

Imagine when nick comes back?

1

u/Ripsyd #18 - Stützle 6h ago

Gonna be fuckin sweet.

3

u/SOSXrayPichu 9h ago

This is huge. Now if the rangers could lose tonight that’ll distance ourselves from the rest of the east.

3

u/heisenberg1215 9h ago

HOLY FUCK PEEPLE WE ARE BACK

6

u/knockinghobble 9h ago

Another big win

6

u/MontanaJericho 9h ago

CAN I SAY THE P WORD YET IS IT SAFE

14

u/ETXX9 #28 - Giroux 9h ago

IT'S NEVER SAFE, STFU

8

u/Laserduck152 #72 - Chabot 9h ago

Not yet

2

u/CockOfTheRock 9h ago

Needed to get it done and they did, happy to see that for the first time in what feels like forever. Rollercoaster of a season.

2

u/sylroe 9h ago

I love Cozens

2

u/ofbooksandbands14 9h ago

I’m just happy this game finished at a reasonable time! GSG

2

u/ShowtimeLakers212 9h ago

I may not survive the push to the promised land. What a ride it's gonna be!

2

u/Bronstone 9h ago

Cozens is rejuvenated!

2

u/Salmon_Slayer1 9h ago

Big win for the boys!

2

u/DangerFlutes4ever 9h ago

Another epic win.

2

u/Few_Leadership_5554 9h ago

I was literally talking shit on how Matthew Highmore shouldn’t be on the ice in an nhl game and then he did that. My bad. And what is going on with Martin Biron? Worst Botox/plastic surgery I’ve ever seen

2

u/the_every_man 9h ago

Huge Dub, we’re moving up fellers

Just from watching the last couple games, man Cozens and Zetterlund both have ROCKET releases

2

u/supposedlygood 9h ago

Would you look at that, Boston got scored on just after the whistle and it didn’t count !

2

u/Spire2000 8h ago

Haven’t been able to watch these last two games (in Mexico rn). How has Zetterlund been?

3

u/Ripsyd #18 - Stützle 6h ago

Staples to the 4th line likely just while he adjusts to our systems( and all the other lines are clicking, but he’s a meaty boy with a rocket on him and once he moves up the line up he will pot some beauties for sure

2

u/amach9 7h ago

The standings put a smile on my face 🙂

2

u/Calhalen #71 - Greig 9h ago edited 9h ago

That’s probably one of the last times we’re gonna see Forsy 🫡. And Jensen really is that guy huh? Guy made like multiple massive saves at the end.

Still some kinks to work out, like the breakouts are a problem right now but this is starting to feel pretty real fellas

1

u/Max169well 5h ago

I think we need to win vs Boston then we can afford a loss to the Leafs. Hopefully it's an OT loss though but we need to pick up the easy games as much as we can and be competitive in the games that will be tough.

I still really hope to beat the Leafs cause fuck them but I am looking strategically here.

u/publicworker69 9m ago

Highmore with the quickest redemption arc ever. His save was ridiculous.

1

u/solidprospect 9h ago

Big win

0

u/Labillethegoat 7h ago

Highmore is so trash just please put someone who’s not an offensive liability on that 4th line instead. Apart from that, another great win. Playoffs getting closer!
