This team is different than what we've seen in the past. Green's coaching is effective, and the players have bought in, starting with the big guns and going right down the lineup. Goaltending has been great despite Ullmark's absence. The key now will be to keep the offence going while also playing this stifling defence that has been a treat to watch. Keep it up boys, the whole city (and beyond) is behind you. We've been waiting years for this and we believe you can get it done. I can't tell you how amazing it feels knowing we can win on any given night if we play the right way. Don't let off the gas boys - learn from past mistakes and stay consistent until the dust settles and we've punched our ticket. Keep making us proud to be fans of this team! GO SENS GO!
I love the way Ottawa is taking what it's being given and isn't trying to force so much anymore. Their apparent commitment to defensive play is much appreciated.
Shouldn't come at the expense of offense tho. 24th in goals for when u have tkachuk, stutzle, batherson, giroux, Norris, chabot, and sanderson along with good depth is inexcusable
@@FirewagonHockey I somewhat agree. However, the additional offence has historically come at the expense of wins so I'll take less offense for now. As they get more comfortable defensively, the offence will hopefully increase. They have to get rid of their bad habits first.
@ I don't see the rush as long as they keep the number of goals against down and they continue to win games. This team has played a gambling/cheating style of hockey for years and they need to take the time it takes to get it through their collective heads that they can't play that way and hope to win. Only then can they focus on offense.
@@christophercharles3169 I'd say the defense saw moderate improvement across the board. The fact of the matter is that goaltending was often the backbreaker. Other teams always got saves that ottawa's goalies didnt. This year however goaltending has been unsustainably good and it'll be a matter of time b4 the offensive lapses bite them hard.
He also catches pucks with ease like a first baseman. Such a far cry from the chaotic glove hands of guys like Korpi and Murray. Leevi is Incredibly confident and poised for such a young guy. He is showing he can handle the pressure of playing in Canada's capital where people are hungry for wins. He has a bright future with this team for sure. GSG!
Leevi Merilainen took several break aways away. His save percentage in 12 games is over 92%!! Which other team has this good back young back up goalie in their team ?
Congrats on another Senators win. After listening to all the Toronto excuses from yesterday , I'm really surprised to see that the rink was free from the bodies of all the sick + injured leafs!!
Не интересует игра этих команд.......но рада победе Оттавы Сенаторс...... в этой команде играет Брэди Ткачук, брат Мэттью Ткачука......и Брэди очень старается попасть в плей-офф.......тоже хочет взять КС, как и его брат!
That was hilarious Grieg scored for Ottawa, Giroux tipped the puck to Grieg who put it in the Ottawa net, Giroux scores for Ottawa! So, Giroux and Grieg were in on the first 3 goals!! LOL!!!!
3rd in the division, don't look back now boys. Keep steaming ahead and put those pathetic laffs in your crosshairs. We're only 6 points behind them, and you know they will panic and crumble when the pressure is on. Let's see if we can make the laffs choke even BEFORE the playoffs start this year! GSG!

@@christophercharles3169 Well they gotta figure out the offense fast bc advanced stats say sens should be 23rd in the league.

Levi is so smooth in his crease, his glides looks like a young Carey Price and fast pads shades of a Vasilevsky.
He also catches pucks with ease like a first baseman. Such a far cry from the chaotic glove hands of guys like Korpi and Murray. Leevi is Incredibly confident and poised for such a young guy. He is showing he can handle the pressure of playing in Canada's capital where people are hungry for wins. He has a bright future with this team for sure. GSG!
Merilainen wouldve had another shutout if Giroux didnt accidentally scored on him, but he responded with a gwg. Wtg boys
Finally a goalie prospect that doesn't let in 4+ goals a game.
Sens are now sitting in 3rd place of the Atlantic as of right now 👀
And only 6 points (3 wins) behind Toronto for 1st 😀
@JoshuaRenaud-im4wm Atlantic will be a dog fight to the finish
The Atlantic is tight,it's crazy how close they all are,9 points from 8th in the division to first
Leevi Merilainen took several break aways away.
His save percentage in 12 games is over 92%!!
Which other team has this good back young back up goalie in their team ?
If Ottawa starts playing road games like they do at home, they will become a very dangerous team.
So only players can put the puck behind Leevi are own team players. Hi from FINLAND 🇫🇮
I love Hockey
this guy gets it
@@knowitalljack2066 think you
Utah HC fan here, I congratulate Ottawa Senators for their win. Best of luck for their next game!
How many breakaways did Leevi have to come up big on? Holy smokes!
Congrats on another Senators win. After listening to all the Toronto excuses from yesterday , I'm really surprised to see that the rink was free from the bodies of all the sick + injured leafs!!
Merilainen is incredible.
loved the Giroux goal
was at this game, crowd was BUZZING.
Maybe my section was dead, but the first two periods were meh. The third was hype. Brady Brady Brady!!
Chicka Chicka Chicka Tim Shady, hotter than a set of twin Brady’s

Bills might not win today but the sens did
Prophetic.
@martinedwards2004 i just knew based off the start they'd combination choke and get raw dogged by the refa
Classic Roo! Gives up a goal and gets a goal!
As utah say that hockey baby!
Какая вязкая игра....
Let’s go Senators
We take third and let's KEEP third!
Why not fight for first? Only 6 points back.
@aralornwolf3140 You never know who says we can't
we beat a hockey club twice 🤷🤷
Sens still give away too much
big win but such a sloppy game
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Defense of Utah was horrible...
