Game Three Thoughts: Go Role Players!

by Jes

The Dark Lord is pleased!


See? The Sens DO need their support players to step up and can win without The Top Line (tm) doing all of the scoring.

Last night?
The Top Line(tm): 1 goal, 0 assists, +1
All other players: 4 goals, 8 assists, +9

Guys like Dean McAmmond, Chris Neil, and Mike Fisher have skill and need to use it. While the Ducks do all they can to shut down The Top Line, and do it well, it leaves opportunities for the superior forward depth of the Sens to make a difference.

Oh, Chris Pronger was at it again. Care to guess the suspension?

I am hoping that the NHL sends a message with a suspension and gives Pronger at least two games. This is his second offense in two series and it was clearly a purposeful intent to injure.

Look, if the NHL continues to go soft on the stars of the game, what kind of message does it send to the rest of the league? Is this the NBA?

Francois Beauchemin? -3! Ouch!

It's kind of strange to see that the line of Marchant-Pahlsson-R.Niedermayer looks so dangerous offensively while they are doing their defensive duties.

Overall, it's nice to see we've got a real series developing.

One game for Pronger. What do I win, an autographed Snoop Dogg bong and a used set of Brian Burke's cufflinks?
 
1) We predicted a measly one game slap on the wrist as well: http://newfaux.blogspot.com/2007/06/bizzare-game.html#links
2) If the perp were a player like Neil or May they would have recived at least 5 games. A repeat offender like thuis( 7 suspensions) should get the book thrown at him!
