Hell, I think Chris Neil is dirtier than Jarkko Ruutu.

Matt the Aussie · 03-18-2010, 06:44 PM

Kuba in, Carkner out for tonight's game

JoshLind · 03-18-2010, 07:59 PM

You know who a dirty player is, someone who doesn't often come up in such discussions? Corey Perry.

Definitely.

But the accepted term for a dirty player who puts up lots of points is "gritty"

I don't watch enough of the Ducks to assess a fair opinion on that one. I'll take your word for it.

I love Perry, but I agree he is a dirty player. I love the game he plays, though. He plays a hard, gritty game every shift and has a lot of offensive talent. He's a great heart and soul player.

holy crap our defence is TANK, phillips, volchie, carkner, sutton, are you kidding me? no other defence in the nhl can touch us in toughness, even kuba at 6'4 225! our defence is HUGE too

Matt the Aussie · 03-23-2010, 10:38 PM

Kuba's big but he's teddy-bear soft.

Sutton AND Volchenkov on this team means that the Sens are able to play defensive minded, shut down hockey.

yes kuba isnt a hard hitting defensmen at all but when you look at the size and strenth of 4 guys mentioned then having one of our puck moving d-man being 6'4 is a huge plus

yea, but dont you agree that we have such a tank defense? I dont think that there is a team in the league that can touch us in that catagory

I do agree......when they play like they did the last two games..well, 3. The game in Dallas wasn't entirely bad...

Its mind-boggling how this team can go for dud to stud overnight. It makes me so mad sometimes. I hate when they play like they did after the break..knowing how much talent there is on that team. Honestly, I did not want this team in the playoffs looking like they did last week...and they still have to show some consistency. They can't go on another losing streak....

I don't mind a lost that much if the team played well, kept it simple and showed the effort...with just no puck luck (and stupid refs <--couldn't help myself

) and I know they can't win them all. But last week...and the one before that...

Kovy isn't playing tonight. Lowe body injury

Damnit I keep forgetting that!

Erik Karlsson · 03-25-2010, 08:49 PM

Lmao.

Also if you guys think our defence is a tank wait until Cowen comes in next year. BOOM!

InsaneSkippy · 03-26-2010, 12:16 PM

You know what's ironic? Vermette has more goals this season than anyone on the Sens.

He's having a great season in Columbus with 25 goals so far (new record for him in the NHL.)

Granted, a big factor in that success was the change in scenery, and I don't think he would have 25 goals if he was a Senator, it just makes me wish we still had him.

Jasmine · 03-26-2010, 12:22 PM

Is he playing his natural position in Columbus? In Ottawa he was used as winger most of the time.

Playing as a center on their top line. I think he centers Rick Nash and RJ Umberger.

Clouston says Volchenkov could possibly play tomorrow, but Michalek not until the last few games of the season.
