After dropping games three and four both by a score of 4-1, the Sens retreated from New York back home for game five. With a 3-2 series lead on the line, today’s afternoon game was tense, high paced and very emotional. You know, the usual.
The Sens’ offence came together re-energized, and propelled the Sens to a 5-4 overtime win over the New York Rangers. Mark Tuesday evening off your calendar, as the Sens could potentially defeat the Rangers to go to the third round of the playoffs for the first time since 2007!
With the way game four ended, and with Chris Neil drawing into the lineup for Ryan Dzingel, we couldn’t have expected anything different than today’s physical start.
