We all knew the Sens were incapable of tanking.
I’ve been saying it since it this awful slide began: no matter how bad this team is, or how dire things look, you can always bet the Sens mounting an epic winning streak as soon as the playoffs become truly out of reach. They might not always win when it matters, but they definitely always win when it doesn’t.
Today’s game was a weird one to watch, because as exciting as it was, and as many goals as the Sens scored, I still couldn’t quite bring myself to care.
