    Wink Hey, didn't the Sens play the Leafs last night?

    ...If you can call that a hockey game, Rich. Both teams looked a little flat. Toronto certainly had a game plan though - dump the puck! How many shots were there combined, 35? Poor entertainment in that one.
    My name is Paul. And I'm a golfaholic.

    Ugh, what a snoozefest. That's the first Sens game that's been televised out here in a couple of weeks, and I was really looking forward it. Was hoping for another hard hitting, emotional, offensive game. Man was that boring. (and I'm not trying to take away from the leafs. they were definitely the better team last night....its just that neither was very good at all)

    Why no thread after the 5-1 Ottawa win vs Toronto? No, because last night was Toronto's cup final. Congratulations! Globe and Mail even had an article that said:

    "Leafs enter elite company with win over Senators"
    Toronto joined the Hurricanes and Capitals as the only teams to beat Ottawa this season thanks to a 3-0 win at home on Saturday.

    LOL

    Ten years from now the Leafs will have a 1 hour pregame ceremony marking the date (Nov.17) they shutout the Sens. They will bring all the players who were part of that historic win...........They will then keep honouring that historic Date of Nov. 17 ever 10 years after that...........

    LOL! No preconceived notions here. I know that my Leafs suck. We'll be lucky to make the playoffs once again. I just find it kinda humourous that whenever there's a Sens victory, the forum is lit up with rah rah, but when they lose, it's as if the game never happened. Must be a glitch in the forum software, eh?

    Hey Dan, can you check that out please?

    Where are you seeing this? Last Sens related thread was "Sens scare me" on the 3rd November. Was about Sens almost blowing a huge lead. There have been 7 games since then, Sens have won 5 of them (inc a 5-1 win vs TO and a 3-1 win vs MTL). Where are these 5 rah rah threads???

    Hee hee. Okay Hank, ya got me there. It's true that there's not a rah rah thread every time the Sens win. But you gotta read between the lines Hank. It was just a general statement. I just hope that Sens fans aren't getting complacent with all this winning going on so early in the season, and I really hope that the players aren't either. There are enough signs to show that they're taking games against weaker teams for granted, and marking in the 2 points before the game has even started. That's not a good thing.

    No problem. Usually it's golf threads being thread-jacked by hockey, not the other way around!

    It drives me insane trying to find the games on TV when they are covered by Sportsnet. Despite tuning to the channel that it says its on with Rogers, I get the blackout screen. Then I search through several hundred channels to then locate the right one - which actually says it should be another show. How difficult is it to put in on the channel that it says its supposed to be on? I am not sure why the Robinson sweater retirement was not on either, despite being on RDS.
    I got a fever. And the only prescription is more golf equipment.

    I also hate when they blackout West CDN games like Calgary Edmonton and Vancouver. It’s not like we have the option to go and watch the game live. At least I can watch all 82 Habs games on RDS HD. The only network that offers 82 HD games of their home team.

    Believe it or not, that's the Sens fault. The NHL gives teams the right to control competitive programming within a 50 mile radius of their rink on regional channels. Since Rogers has 4 "local" versions of Sportsnet, they are all considered regional channels, and the blackout rules apply. TSN is a national network, so the rules don't apply there. The only time you'll get to see teams like Toronto or Montreal here (other than HNIC or TSN/RDS) is when they play Ottawa.

    If you want to see all of the games, you need to pay for specialty channels like Centre Ice, etc.
    When applying the Rules, you follow them line by line. You don't read between them.
