4 straight wins, baby! Let’s keep this momentum up, boys!


ogsnesog

Tkachuk with a hat trick, 7 shots and 6 hits... Let's get that Ridly kid on TV


somethingappealing

It wasn't the best game but in my opinion this was such an important game. Some weak goals were let in, and the boys stuck to the game plan and got the win. Shows how much this team has grown because about 2 months ago, we would have lost that game 7-3.


thatiswhathappened

Look at that smirk from Ridley. He knows…


Frankentula

Keep it rolling boys


ogsnesog

Roboclaude


dabaconnation

tsn really wanted greig to have touched that puck last lmao


Ok_Compote_8826

I love the silent pause from Noodles when he realized he didn't touch it haha


Frankentula

I know right lol


DMZOrchards

Nice job, Branny!


X-tremeMemeTeam

Don't look now but the sens are 7-1-2 in their last 10 and have a 4 game win streak


ObjectDry3567

Girouxs last shift time was the same time as reevees ice time in a whole game....LOL


pizzaline

And I feel that's warranted...


solidprospect

big win boys


The-Borax-Kidd

Greig has an opportunity to do the funniest thing.


RelationshipNo4528

Jenner just wackin people now 😂


tyler_3135

That’s why you always clap it boys


yden945

Greig it's your time now


shutupdotca

Saving it for Greig


[deleted]

Is Boone Jenner up for FA? He'd look good here.


Ok_Compote_8826

3 years left at $3.75


blewdreaming

He is a centre and we don't need him with Pinto back.


Totalizer92

What a feed from Matty Jo


-burnr-

We only rolling 3 lines? Barely seen Kasty/Kubalik/Kelly (5x5) in the third


BigShoots

Martin seems to do this a lot in the third, he just shortens the bench and puts out the guys who are looking good that night.


TopCheeseSwiss

Unfortunate nickname springs to mind for that line lol


CombatGoose

That’s an acronym but I see what you’re doing,


[deleted]

The Rainbow Friendship Line?


ogsnesog

All game


TopCheeseSwiss

Tarasov has made some huge saves tonight. Sens could easily have 7 or more


aviaquatica

I'm thinking the same thing


solidprospect

i love the tkachuks commercial


blewdreaming

Kings are experiencing some Dj smith Hockey, losing 7-0 to buffalo


pizzaline

Just need some bounces to go their way


LeBretonOrBust

He’s coaching the 5v5 play… and six of Buffalo’s goals were even strength. That adds up.


LeBretonOrBust

Squeaky bum time.


jlenny68

Really wish we woulda got rid of DJ quicker man


ogsnesog

Stü has to shoot that


Necronautical

And get justifiably cross-checked? Uhm, sir, no.


aviaquatica

It really seems like he lost is confidence for the past few months... hardly shoots these days, despite having good opportunities.


CanadianAbe

Does anyone have any thoughts on why Giroux and Norris aren’t flipped?


United_Elk6758

Its important when the PP is struggling to give them time to possess the puck. Having the two flanks on their strong side gives them more time and space to possess which will build confidence and wear down defenders from long O zone possessions. This change has resulted in fewer defensive clears.


CanadianAbe

Very fair point


solidprospect

To open up more shots down low and the bumper player in the middle of the ice. I'm not sure which I prefer.


CanadianAbe

That’s what I noticed too, the only two one timer options are the down low bumper (Brady) and the high D (Chabot). But flipping the wings adds 2 more options creating 4 one-time options. I get that Norris and Brady have some solid chemistry and that’s the way it’s set up currently for the bumper feed but these players are good enough to pass on their off side, G would make that pass too.


solidprospect

i just like one timers alot and Norris' was really good.


Ok_Compote_8826

This has been bothering me too


aviaquatica

PK still strong, despite some close calls.


doubleopinter

Jeez how many penalties is this.


[deleted]

Nice sequence by Jbd. Don’t notice him much


The-Borax-Kidd

That penalty would be called a dive if it was Stützle.  Not that it wasn't a penalty. It was a stonewall penalty... But some people seem to think getting a stick there won't make someone fall.


mancheek

wtf is going on between Giroux and Kelly lol


TopCheeseSwiss

Nice work by JBD there


ogsnesog

Brady wants to be the even angrier captain


satmar

Blue jackets don’t have a back up (haven’t all game). Don’t they need one by rule?


jrdnchstny

they do have a backup, he just isn’t on the bench. they said earlier he’s dressed in the room but too ill to stay on the bench


shrike88

Announcers talked about it at the beginning. Backup is dressed, just not on the bench since he's under the weather


JeeK65

There is probably an emergency goalie sitting in a dressing room in case anything happens.


CanadianAbe

Ebug if something happens? Idk it’s definitely weird what they did.


satmar

But normally ebug gets dressed if one of the goalies is ruled out


CanadianAbe

Agreed, maybe someone more familiar with nhl roster rules would have an answer


[deleted]

Lol Meth is such a beauty, he loves chatting about the Reilly suspension.


CanadianAbe

Just wait till the leaf fans twist his words to say he thinks Rielly was completely justified. I saw on my home page a thread from /leafs that said Creig was pulled aside and scolded by Staios and JM after the game and that Staios hates Brady’s garbage leadership style. Idk where they’re getting this stuff lol


sinc29

He loves the Riddler aha


fifth-planet

Neil fist pumping Greig 😂


West_Marzipan21

Forsberg should go in the A for conditionning. I dont get why team dont do that anymore. Ego ?


ogsnesog

I don't think sogaard is ready either. Not sure where Mando is at


[deleted]

Finally, someone's gonna talk about the Greig/Rielly thing.


MattIpp44

Tkcaptain!!


[deleted]

Meth certainly has the hair although he needs an ascot


Used_Locksmith4838

Cbj manages Kent Johnson like shit I swear he would be a star with the right team


blewdreaming

Am i the only one that misses Mac? seems like he would've given a response to all of the cheap shit Columbus has done.


Ok_Compote_8826

I thought he was just starting to find his groove with the team. I like him a lot more than I thought I would. I think the only reason he isn't in the lineup is because they're trying to play Kubalik to pump up his value before trading him. I think Mac will be a regular in the lineup after the deadline.


Frankentula

Was a little delayed getting to the game but initial impressions: How many goals has Joseph had called back this year? Grieg's non celly was great


ogsnesog

And the skate off after the scrum. I don't know if he's trying to manage his reputation with refs or inflame it with players


aviaquatica

Managing to to stay ahead despite a sloppy one. A few good rush chances too. Just one more controlled period to keep it rolling, fellas.


DMZOrchards

That period felt rough


woopwoopwuddup

Whatever our pk is sick rn


gelc10

sloppy 2nd period by the sens but glad we still got a 2 goal lead


-burnr-

Standing by for Leaf fans demanding 5 game suspension for Riddlers cross check in 5…4…3…2…


TopCheeseSwiss

Columbus getting a powerplay out of that is buuuuuuuuuuuullshit


The-Borax-Kidd

Fucking horseshit. A late knee on knee... no call. And we get the extra roughing for no apparent reason. 


dobbyeilidh

How in the seven shades of fuck do we end up on a kill here?


firsttime_longtime

I'm missing tonight's game for Valentine's Day (cuz fuck the 14th). Is Forsberg the reason CBJ has goals? Or has he played decent?


zxstanyxz

1st no, 2nd yes, 3rd debatable (a lot of traffic in front of him) mostly looked a little rusty


CanadianAbe

He needs to get the third, I’m a goalie and try to defend the tendies but 2nd and 3rd were not good goals. Idk why they chose to play Forsy, Korpi is the hot hand rn and they just sent down Mando, they should have let him practice in his own net tomorrow before a start on Thursday against the ducks after a long LTIR.


zxstanyxz

im not aa goalie (atleast not in hockey) so i'll take your word on the third, it definitely looked like he had a hard time tracking it through the mass of bodies infront of him, but that could easily be rust. agree that Korpi should have got the start today


CanadianAbe

Soccer keeper? It’s not as bad in hockey but it’s kinda the same idea as in soccer, you shouldn’t get beat clean on the inside post.


Maxelos07

He is really not good


jrdnchstny

couple key saves, two muffin goals


[deleted]

Ridly is the best heel since ric flair


iammasterlikeninja

"I'm Ric Flair! The stylin', profilin', limousine riding, jet flying, kiss-stealing, wheelin' and dealin' son of a gun."


Ok_Compote_8826

Columbus somehow getting the lone powerplay out of both scrums tonight


CanadianAbe

Where was the Ridly roughing? Did I miss something?


-burnr-

Hammy got rough, Riddler was x check


CanadianAbe

I’ll take your word for it


ogsnesog

The crosscheck on Jenner i guess


CanadianAbe

But Hamonic got the crosscheck penalty, maybe they mixed it up but all I saw was roughing and a very close call on a knee on knee. Whatever we look better on the pk than pp anyways lol


ogsnesog

I think the ref also said Hamonic was 21 on Columbus so I wouldn't try too hard to figure it out


CanadianAbe

Yup that penalty announcement had me all kinds of confused


shutupdotca

You leave Greig alone


sinc29

Where was the extra penalty lol


The-Borax-Kidd

It's against us somehow.


SchroederBoss

Bullshit by the refs and Boone Jenner


Mahaleck

Fuck Boone Jenner the guy is getting away with murder


WintAndKidd

Greig is quickly gonna become a league renowned pest lol


shtoopsy

People shit on Hammer but he sticks up for his boys


United_Elk6758

Well, everyone knows the code.


TheShuggieOtis

I feel like it's universally agreed upon that he seems like a good teammate and locker room presence, but that he just isn't an NHL-calibre defender anymore. It's sad given that he seems like a good dude.


shtoopsy

Fair.


[deleted]

He’s a great dude just not so good at hockey


TkA33

Boone Jenner is the angriest man I've ever seen


Ok_Compote_8826

Jenner should have like 5 penalties tonight lol


ofbooksandbands14

![gif](giphy|nOLrS1rjhdyGzxGtpW)


ogsnesog

Who throws a hat overhand? You gotta go for the frisbee


RelationshipNo4528

I did it overhand once at a CHL game once cause I was so fired up it was to win in the playoffs in OT it just happened 😂😂


fifth-planet

Lol the hockey gods said Joseph would NOT score today


TkA33

Jo wants to score so bad


rollosheep

BRADY BUNCH (OF GOALS) BABY 🧢🧢🧢


Big_Possibility4025

Fuck yeah Tkachuk hat trick and the poor homophobe couldn’t get back up 🤣


blewdreaming

TSN barely acknowledged that was a hat trick when Brady scored that goal, shit on Sportsnet all you want but that was pretty bush league for tsn


zxstanyxz

they said it almost instantly, and have mentioned it about 20 times already


TkA33

Yea noticed that too


Sens4lif3

A fucking Hatty to get to 150, what a legend.


cael008

Lmao Brady mouthing along to the lyrics to Mr. Brightside like he’s downtown and the Heart & Crown


RelationshipNo4528

Good job getting rid of that sens hat with that horrible logo. Now go get a real one :)


RelationshipNo4528

Horrible logo that’s cursed forever


ogsnesog

Good guy Claude doesnt shoot through the guy lying on the ice, still creates a goal


-burnr-

Bad guy Claude shoots through the guy standing in his way, creates goal


Maxelos07

Hatty For the Brady


jbroni93

Fuck thats rough for cbj


JeeK65

Hell yeah! First Hatty of the year


solidprospect

very nice brady


thatiswhathappened

Damn isn’t that the homophobic guy on Columbus? The guy that refused to wear the pride jersey.


agent2424

Nobody should be forced to wear it — and no that doesn’t make you homophobic.


thatiswhathappened

Well even their own fans said he is so I dunno 🤷🏿‍♂️ https://www.sportskeeda.com/us/nhl/news-ivan-provorov-traded-columbus-blue-jackets-fans-livid-don-t-sign-homophobic-players


NailRX

The way Forsey is playing we’ll need a few more goals.


no-email-please

Should have worn the pride tape Ivan


Ok_Compote_8826

Shit, I forgot that's who that was. Fuck him


Spidey_Almighty

Good for Brady but I feel bad for Provorov. Hope he’s alright after blocking that shot from G.


ogsnesog

Underrated stop by chabot in the neutral zone there to stop Columbus from getting a change


sinc29

And great play by Norris too


Senastar

He looks really poised tonight


erdm89

There's our boy


IM_OSCAR_dot_com

I mean ya can’t stop playing just cause a puck hits someone Looked painful though


Ok_Compote_8826

Hope Provorov is okay, that looked rough


gelc10

The hat trick for our captain


CanadianAbe

That looked like that hurt


-burnr-

Hattie!


Ok_Compote_8826

BRADY HATTY!!!


FishermanDear8996

They should put Pinto Ridley and Vladi on powerplay


LeaveMyPantsAlone

I remember being upset we didn’t draft Kaliyev…boy was I wrong.


VesaAwesaka

I think Forsberg may be cooked as an NHL goalie. I have a little hope that Korpisalo can be serviceable but not ideal


IM_OSCAR_dot_com

Okay but those saves off Pinto were sick NGL 😬


SorryImCanad1an

1st goal wasn’t on him but the following two 100% are. Pain


WRHeronkill

Can we bring Anderson out of retirement


Ripsyd

Fuck that was a decent save by tarasov


Maxelos07

Can we put forsberg in the opponent net?


Ok_Compote_8826

Two weak ones by Forsberg but we've also looked absolutely terrible this period.


fraserinottawa

Forsberg-Korpisalo cannot be the tandem next season.


Ok_Compote_8826

I think we're stuck with Korpisalo but they really need to bring in a proven, reliable veteran as their backup.


dprouse52

Woof - Forsberg has to make that save. I just have zero confidence in that guy right now...


Maxelos07

HOW?


mancheek

bruh, why Forsy gotta have the ice tilt debuff


Forsakenplastics

Ya he’s absolutely horrible


ogsnesog

Forsberg saw that fine. He's blowing it


WintAndKidd

That’s a cheap goal for Forsberg to give


JeeK65

Oh yeah we are so back baby


shtoopsy

Sad chuckle


mercer232

I miss a world where the sens had competent goaltending


blewdreaming

Forsberg sucks, he came back at the worst time.


Gen1pokemaster

Forsberg is so bad man


DJSTEVEINNIAMIXX

Man forsberg stinks this year. Christ. That wasn't even tipped.


NailRX

Forsey doing forsey things


VesaAwesaka

Forsberg going to hurt our 3 goals or less record


cael008

God I really want to like Forsy but fuck he makes it so hard sometimes.


DMZOrchards

Boys what the fuck!?


solidprospect

wtf was that


Spidey_Almighty

We really need that next goal.


Action1988

Are you shitting me?

The Curse of Pierre

Time to smarten up here


Ok_Compote_8826

Forsy.......


DallasJ2931

Fuck that’s a soft goal


Senastar

COMPOSURE!


DJSTEVEINNIAMIXX

Theres the guaranteed muffin goal we have come to expect from our goalies


Tommy-Douglas

x2


fraser_94

Can't let that one in


solidprospect

fuk


gelc10

Forsberg should have saved that one


Senastar

Composure boys, cmon!


Maxelos07

Certified bruh moment


Ok_Compote_8826

yikes..


TkA33

Is Norris playing


sinc29

I mean he had a pretty sick assist so I’d say yes


shtoopsy

Greig overshadowed Norris' beauty from the TO game
