Ok, calm down people....for once, I won't with injury upon the Sens...not in THIS post at least ! ;D.
Rd #1: They played a team, that was TIRED! The Islanders played playoff hockey for the last 10-15 games of the regular season. By the time the playoffs hit, the Islanders were done!
Rd #2: They played a team, that was TIRED from the Leafs series! Not only did the Flyers play without their best D-man, but Roenick as well as several other players looked no-where near as effective as they did VS the Leafs! Sens fans will argue that, that was due to the Sens being a better team! That may be true, however, the Leafs did tire the Flyers out. Hitch, as well as several other Flyers, openly admitted that the Leafs series, which included LONG over-time games, took a huge amount out of them. Also, Chechmanik SUCKED! He was sooooo bad, that he will not be back in that city next year! He had good games, where he "held his team in it"....but he BLEW games for his team! With a real goalie, the Flyers, although tired and beaten up, would have moved past the Sens!
Rd #3: I know, it's only been 3 games...but I watched all 3! Well, I watch about 50% of the games...channel surfing so to speak. The Sens, in games 2 & 3 have looked like the Sens of old. No heart, no desire & no effort. Were it not for Lalime, they would have been blown out tonight! Even game 1, the game they won, the Sens were not the better team!
For the 1st time this playoff run, the Sens are facing a good goaltender. We all know what happened when the Sens face a team with good goaltending...they lose! They crumble....they give up!
Lets go Devils!
As to the Sens & their fans:.......Find some heart, and get ready to jump off the wagon!
