If Harry Neale was the Senators bench boss, he’d be able to put the team’s power-play woes in proper perspective.
“We can’t score at home, and we can’t score on the road,” Neale would say. “My failure as coach is I can’t think of any place else to play.”
Substitute the word “score” with “win” and you’ve got the best quote ever uttered by Neale when was in charge of the Vancouver Canucks 30 years ago.
Heading into Friday’s game at Canadian Tire Centre against the Kings, Ottawa’s power play was 2-for-21 on home ice and a barely better 2-for-15 out of town.
