Sens Dumbfounded By Preds

Really, on a busy day, the Senators’ 5-6 OT loss to the Preds best summed up like so, from the Ottawa Sun,
So, just where does crazy stop and weird take over?
...
Take Spezza, for instance. He’s supposed to be doubtful for the game with some kind of injury.All he does is go out and have a dominating performance with three assists, including an end-to-end rush to set up defenceman Anton Volchenkov for his first goal in almost a year, which tied the game 4-4 with less than five minutes left in the third period.
...
When’s the last time Senators’ shutdown pair of Volchenkov and Phillips scored in the same game, never mind the same period? Ever?Then there was the Nashville power play, last in the league with one goal this year, scoring two in just over three minutes (the last minute of the third and first two of OT) to win it.
The game started with Senators defenceman Alexandre Picard knocking two goals into his own net. Should have known then it was going to be a weird one.
There’s a reason you take struggling teams seriously, especially ones that have beaten you 6-5 in extra time in your own barn just a couple years ago.
