You probably would’ve been happier as a fan of the Ottawa Senators if you’d forgotten it was 2 p.m. start and missed the game. The Sens never looked threatening, and they made the Sabres look like an all-star team with the way they got to set up camp in the Sens’ zone. I think everyone watching the game wished they were that Sens fan who left when the Sabres scored two quick goals in the second to go up 5-0.
Before the game, we got to live through a celebration of Jason Pominville having hit 1000 NHL games on Thursday, which really meant 1000 chances to re-live his Senators-eliminating OT goal from the 2005 playoffs.
