4-3, and they came back from a 3 goal deficit.
Heatley X 2, Stillman, Alfredsson all score.
Sykora, Armstrong and Taffe all scored first.
Emery vs. Conklin. Emery wins.
Ottawa needs to win to stay on top. They've been sliding of late.

and they continue to do so
a loss tonight against the flyers boosts the flyers' chances
i just do not see an even distribution of talent
all the senators depend on is their one "unstoppable" line and their "unstoppable" goalie to hopefully become "unstoppable"
doesnt always work. sabres can beat them. any team can, i think, if they really work hard enough.
but yeah what's happening? the senators AND red wings are skidding...FAST. look at dallas! threatening to take over the first place seed in the western conference. i NEVER even thought of seeing that coming this season with the big lead the red wings boasted.
shows it ain't over til it's over

Is their any top line in hockey that can hang with these guys, or do most teams just have to count on their other lines to beat Ottawa's 2nd and 3rd line?

[blazinsabrez61]

its a tough call
i would say (and i don't mean to annoy you guys with my constant referrals to the sabres) but we have stopped them before
they are definitely preventable, but it's no easy task
i would say the best defensive pair for any team, as long as they have the chemistry and put in the hard work, can hold down this line
they, i will admit, can really put a detriment to your game

[Lefty Noob]

No, hey, no problem. If the Sabres can hang with them, the Sabres can hang with them. Once Crosby's healthy, can my Pens, you think?

[blazinsabrez61]

absolutely they could compete
with hossa in the mix and how hot malkin has been lately, they coule be the next DEADLY line to come in the NHL, i really mean that
the penguins look to be making a run for the playoffs, and they are certainly instilling fear into their opponents (including myself )
