Brassard must be playing with a broken wrist. Cant take faceoffs, cant shoot...theres no point in him being in the lineup.

I'm not really sure why he's in either. He's looked like garbage since he was put back in the lineup.
5 on 3 time
Ottawa you gotta score here.
Edit: Or lose the faceoff, that's cool too.
That was... not a great one to give up, even on a 5v3 lol
On second look it was really well placed, but even still.
lol Bobby Ryan called Crosby a bitch
better fine him
Game 7!
I feel like Nashville vs Ottawa is like the worst possible outcome for the NHL lol.

7 – THE RATINGS!!!!!
One of the things that has been pervasive in hockey over the past few weeks has been the smug chortling from Canadians like, “Oh ho, the ratings for NBC will be really bad if it’s a Ducks/Senators final, haha,” as though: a) anyone outside of an NHL or NBC boardroom should give a rat’s ass, and b) the real loser wouldn’t be the hockey fans who have to sit through up to seven games of the stultifying, ugly hockey both teams are capable of playing.
Like honestly, this is one of those things I cared about when I was 14 and wrestling ratings were a thing. The Monday Night Wars. I was a WWF guy, myself (though I also watched Nitro!) and so to see my preferred brand of pro wrestling pull ahead was something of a personal vindication. In retrospect, it was dumb to feel this way.
Again, I was 14.
So why does Canada care? As though they have some sort of provenance over Hockey Caring, after the Senators didn’t sell out a home playoff game, and after ratings for Sportsnet’s coverage are repeatedly abysmal. (Apparently they’re just fine from these playoffs, but guess what: It’s because the Leafs and Oilers made it for the first time in a million years.)
Point being: Who cares however many million people? If you’re the only one in the United States watching a game, what’s the big deal?
Go back to worrying about whether the Senators are Hashtag Canada’s Team.
(They’re not, by the way.)
Yessss getting another set of games correct. This is what I live for since the caps are out. Game 7777777777

As of yesterday there were a ton of tickets available, didn't bother to look again today but I doubt they sold them all. For regular season games I'll buy the shitty location of the CTT as an excuse, but for the third round of the playoffs? Get the fuck out of here, buy a ticket and watch the best defenseman in the league play in the playoffs while he's still contractually obligated to carry your shit-ass team.
lolpens; my OTT in 7 prediction suddenly looking not crazy
Still can't believe we're in the fucking finals; just insane.
