from Scott Morrison at Sun Media,
Regardless of what derailed them earlier this season, good teams and good players find a way to get the job done and that simply and obviously hasn’t been happening.
It’s a cliche, but now we will see what these Senators are really made of and, in an excruciating way, if they are somehow able to get it done, if they are finally able to beat the Leafs in a game that matters, if they are able to secure a playoff spot, it may make them all that much stronger this spring. The key word, however, remains may.
It also generally holds true that you are never as good as your highest high (see 15-2) and, the Senators hope, never as bad as your lowest low. Tonight, we find out if the team that has broken a million hearts in springs gone by is merely off to an early start.
added 7:06am, from Roy MacGregor of the Globe and Mail,
You could call Ottawa “Twitchy City” at the moment, the call-in shows, the water coolers, the bars and even the parking lots filled with general managers who know the root cause — troublesome second goaltender Ray Emery, lazy defensive play by big-name players such as Dany Heatley, slow defencemen such as Luke Richardson and Wade Redden, bad trades such as the one for Mike Commodore and black tape instead of white on the blade of Daniel Alfredsson’s stick — and claim to know the answers as well.
