A common theme throughout recent Sens recaps has been fan interest. It’s hard to care about the Sens lately, and although I might be beating a dead horse at this point, it especially rang true tonight.
With trade rumours being chucked in every direction, all I wanted to do was appreciate the players. This might be the last we see of Jean-Gabriel Pageau, or Derick Brassard, or Mike Hoffman. And most importantly, this might’ve been our last time seeing Erik Karlsson in an Ottawa Senators uniform.
The game felt secondary, although you came here for a recap, so a recap you will receive.
