26:34 the Sens set themselves up to need a comeback but simply don't have a clutch gene. You could point back to the Jets game to say otherwise, but outside of that, I can't point to a single other major clutch moment in the last 41 games. We simply need to be better to start. It's either goaltending failures early making it an impossible climb to comeback or the lack of finishing early to create a lead that we can defend
31:28 what do we have to lose? Mads has more experience than Sheppard, he frankly should've been backing up the whole time and Sheppard should've been the 3rd string option
This team needs better goaltending cause when it’s bad no matter how good the offence is, it’s still not good enough. No way it should’ve been 3-0 at 9 shots
Change has to be made. There is no future in running this back night after night getting the worst goaltending in the league. Fire someone. Make a change. Send Leevi down. What do you have to lose??? Nothing.
45:29 I agree with Pillzy, need shots on net and dirty rebounds. Boys can't only be looking for one timers on the PP
Halliday is looking better and better. G was awesome tonight too.
I'll just say look at my commentary in the last ten games. I keep saying don't get excited because this team has a lot of glaring issues. Yes goaltending is the biggest, but, last year when we thought we were getting good goaltending keep in mind that we still barely made the playoffs. The huge amount of missed opportunities in the game to finish, the seam passes by batherson, Brady just forgetting to skate to pucks in time on the PP, on and on, there are many, many reasons this team is underperforming, especially in critical matchups. I'll say it again nothing, is, going, to, change, until this club wakes up and understands that they need to leverage a big trade chip to fix some problems. Brady is the chip that makes the most sense to me because of the massive return you can get and BOY oh BOY do we ever need return. This team needs a skill upgrade in the top 6, ideally a winger for Tim. This team needs another goalie. This team needs to move on from Jensen and put anyone in his place. This team needs to get a 1st rounder back. You can do all those things with a Brady trade and I genuinely don't think the team loses much to be honest. I know this pissed everyone off and he's a friend of the show but listen, figure it out now, or later. One way or another this is the truth and it's going to be self evident in time for those who choose not to accept it.
Jack the putz saying Ottawa is better than Detroit lmao.
Detroit has better D, better forwards and way better goaltending. Only thing ottawa is better at is crying. Timmy Stuzle should be captain cryer
I said it in the summer, they needed to keep Forsberg for another year.
Sens just couldn't ever put it together when they got within touching distance. Special teams come up short when it matters most again. Really discouraging we all know the Sens should be higher in the standings but the same issues have been here all season and despite what the advanced stats say the games still aren't going in our favour and it's so frustrating. Starting to lose hope that we will actually start seeing consistent results
Puck management was brutal tonight costly turnovers by G and Kleven both end up in the back of the net 5 seconds later. Batherson and Cozens were fighting the puck all night G as well whatever
Is there any world in which the Ottawa Senators can lure Jonathan Quick to Kanata?
I still trust Leevi I think he can do it but unfortunately at no fault of his own we don't really have time to mess around and figure things out problems have to be fixed now
Starting to submit to the thought that this is the theme of our season. At least we’ll go 62-20 on Deserve to Win O'Meter
HOLY CRAP JACK…. STOP PANICKING BECAUSE THE GUY HAS ONE BAD GAME. LINUS HAD SEVERAL BAD GAMES AND NO ONE IS TALKING OF REPLACING HIM…. PUT LEEVI BACK IN NEXT GAME….NHL NETWORK TODAY SAID LEEVI WAS .925 WHEN 5 ON 5 THE LAST TWO GAMES……YOU THREE KEEP PANICKING WHEN OUR GOALIES HAVE A BAD GAME….DO YOU TALK OF REPLACING GIROUX, PERRON, STUTZLE, ETC WHEN THEY HAVE A BAD GAME? CUT THE GUY SOME SLACK… HE'S A ROOKIE FOR GOD SAKE!
ROSS….UR FULL OF IT…. "OUR GOALTENDING HAS NEVER BEEN WORSE THAN IT IS RIGHT NOW"…..YOU FORGET 4 GOAL ANDY IN THE ONE YEAR??? 2017-2018 Craig Anderson .898…. never been as bad…. give me a break.
Need to fire who runs the PK too.
ROSS LEVITAN: Peter Sidorcowicz…. 1992-1993 .856, Daniel Berthiaume .871, 1993-1994 Craig Billington .859, 1994-1995 Don Beaupre .895, Craig Billington .867
GO THRU ALL THE YEARS…. THERE ARE TOO MANY AS BAD AS OUR TENDIES RIGHT NOW…. Craig Anderson 2017-2018 .898,
OH THE SENS GOALTENDING HAS NEVER BEEN THIS BAD….. BULLSHIT ROSS…..ALL 3 OF YOU ARE OVERREACTING.. YES IT NEEDS TO BE BETTER. NEVER BEEN AS BAD…HARDLY.
How to Fix the Sens: Our defense have to be more aware of where the other team is near our net… Ever notice a rebound is NEVER CLEARED FROM THE FRONT OF OUR NET!!! It always goes to the other team… that's not by accident… do drills to clear the front of the net for the d-core.
You're gonna start Sogaard against Utah? Are you nuts? If Leevi wins the Utah game, he'll have won 3 of the last 4 games….think of that…. Why are you guys panicking so bad over one game!!! Chill out.
Give Leevi the Utah game… the best chance to win and give him the Colorado game too…anything in that game is a bonus.
Terrified of the way this team has been built. Happy to get a gritty (maybe lucky) one vs. the Sens. Respect, though, boys.
Haven't seen the whole game yet, only highlights but I don't see this one being on Leevi.
DeBrincat has 21 goals.
And Larkin 22.
If we don’t fix the goalie problem and miss the playoffs we may as well just go into another rebuild
Hamonic has had plenty of beers in the press box, where he belongs.
ROSS: "WE'RE A GOALIE FRIENDLY SHOW THAT HAS WATCHED THE WORST GOALTENING IN THE NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE"
REALLY???

DETROIT – 141

BUT YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ROSS….SENS HAVE THE WORST GOALTENING IN THE LEAGUE….BECAUSE THE STATS DON'T LIE….. STOP WITH THE BS JUST BECAUSE WE HAVE ONE BAD GAME!!!
Ugh the drama.
Yeah not the greatest game for goaltenders, but they also had a couple crappy bounces. They just had 2 wins, and Meri was fine.
They need to fix the turnovers at both blue lines and they will do much better.
fought hard, still lost. sad. season might be over before the long break. ive said it for weeks: our core is individually strong, but has never delivered so far. we need new players or we are done.
As a Detroit fan I despise Tkachuk but as a hockey fan, love him and would be ecstatic if he somehow made it to the Wings roster.
Solid show boys. You're always a good listen. Fix that goal tending and good things will happen.
😂 defensive coverage 😂
Like actually cover a man instead of standing in front of the Net….
Defensive awareness instead of just defensive system 😂
So many goalie apologists in the comments who clearly never looked at the adv stats (that clearly show the glaring issue)
Thanks guys for saying the truth, goalies have to get it together
When the team is top 10 in defensive stats (top 5 in most) and goalies are well below 900 the issue becomes obvious
The best worst team I’ve ever seen, tough to watch. Never seen such a dominant team lose so many games they should win.
I've seen enough to know this season is cooked, but have confidence in our GM and ownership too build and improve this team in the future
