The annual “dads trip” is here, and the Sens have decided to spend it disappointing their fathers.
This was the second Sens game in a row where there was an entire suite reserved for the players’ dads, and although the team put together a much better effort tonight than whatever they did against the Kings, I’m starting to wonder if maybe the dads’ presence is the problem here.
First Period
The Sens have had Dallas’s number over the last few years, and they looked pretty good to start this matchup. DeBrincat and Pinto got the first good chance of the game, but there was barely any time to feel optimistic about the team’s chances before Miro Heiskanen opened the scoring.
