This is the Canucks' first game at home after 14 straight on the road (6 after the break). Let's hope they're tired.

Pascal Leclaire with the start. Glad to see, time to get him some action.

I'm looking forward to this one. A late start on CBC. I can watch it on the big screen, in HD, without being hassled because it's so late. And the CBC's best are calling the game for once. I think Hughson is probably the best play by play guy in Canada. But then anyone's better than Cole.

Hopefully the sens can score some goals. And maybe do something on the powerplay.

So that's not Hughson, what game did he call? Leafs? I was actually looking forward to hearing him call a sens game for once.

Another mediocre powerplay and frequent turnovers.

Well, Sens getting called for everything again and the Canucks trapping yet again. Teams like them make the game BORING and their idiot fans don't even realize it.

Time to change the channel.

Mark Lee is making me long for Bob Cole

Sometimes I kinda doubt Leclaire's athleticism. He's played great so far and I shouldn't be bringing this up when he's playing good... but the guy doesn't look like an athlete, even for goalies. It's impossible to imagine Snoopie hitting the weights. I just don't know if he's the future...

The sens defensive system has been breaking down severely since the Cullen and Sutton trades. The system has been their strongest point all season.

Yeah, Mark Lee is horrid. I wish they would send Jim Hughson back out west and make Dean Brown a fulltime guy on the east coast.

gared66 · « **Reply #10 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:21:20 PM »

Yeah that sounds great to me. Or send Brown out west. Either way. I thought Hughson was calling this game. I could swear they threw to him about it before the habs game.

Either way Lee still ain't worse than Cole. At least he's matter of fact. At least it doesn't take him a minute to utter the most obvious sentence, like Cole

Way too deep in your net Leclaire!.

Leclaire should've went way out to challenge for that puck. (Like Dominik Hasek style)

gared66 · « **Reply #12 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:22:50 PM »

Oh my god. Giving up two clear breakaways, from the blue line in, in less than 20 seconds. They haven't been the same since the trades.

Yeah, Cole is worse, but Lee is bad as well. I hope they keep Brown in the east though, I don't want to lose him as the Sens' play by play guy. He's one of the best in the business.

The object of the game is NOT to see how many times your goalie can bail you out when you give up breakaways.

gared66 · « **Reply #15 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:27:59 PM »

Me neither now that you mention it. Damn.

I'm telling you guys, this defense has not been the same since the trades. Breakdowns were never a weakness of this team until a few weeks ago. Not this year. Now they look discombobulated every other shift. And again!

Jasonf6 · « **Reply #16 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:29:07 PM »

I forget who is commentating but they are sure getting prime use out of the Vancouver knee pads tonight.

SENSfreak_03 · « **Reply #17 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:31:34 PM »

this is getting stupid. The break has absolutely killed all the mojo this team had going. Clouston needs to schedule a trip to Central Park again. Gotta wake up soon for our decent cushion on a good playoff spot could slip. teams below us are winning

gosensgo101 · « **Reply #18 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:32:50 PM »

Neil has to be one of the better guys in the league when it comes to throwing them with his worse hand.

gared66 · « **Reply #19 on:** March 13, 2010, 11:35:38 PM »

I completely don't understand how the commentator then gave the fight to Griffen or whoever it was. Neil landed twice as many punches. Are these the usual Vancouver guys? A bunch of homers or something?

But there's a serious cancer in the sens defense. And the referee abuse continues. That wasn't a penalty.
