I won’t lie: if I hadn’t been writing the recap for this one, I’m not sure I would have made it through the whole game. It was bad for a little while there.
But I guess it was a fun game after all, so... thanks, Sens?
Experience Ottawa Senators hockey!
First Period
If you thought the Sens would play well tonight knowing that they needed a win after that disastrous Florida trip, you would be wrong. Also, why would you think that in the first place?
Each team got a good chance in the first few minutes of the game, and then an early Arizona powerplay lasted only a few seconds, as the Coyotes scored right off the faceoff.
