Silver Nuggets: More on last night's win against the Leafs

Here's a collection of Ottawa Senators-related stories for today:

Mike Fisher was Fanhouse's "plus" player for last night. Fisher leads the Ottawa Senators with nine goals, and is on pace for a career year. (Fanhouse)
The Citzen's game file from last night's 3-2 win over the Leafs. (Citizen)
Praise for Pascal Leclaire's performance last night. Heck of a third period for Snoopy. (Sun)
Remember the story about the kid who missed Saturday's game because his family wasn't aware of the change in gametime? Sens have made amends, giving out two free tickets to season ticketholders who missed the game due to the error. (Citizen)
Game recaps from the blogosphere, take your pick: Another Ottawa Senators Blog, Sens Army, and Black Aces.
The top five early season surprises for the Ottawa Senators is a fun little slideshow. (Bleacher Report)
Finally, Chris Neil, Daniel Alfredsson, and Anton Volchenkov didn't skate with the team today. No word yet on if Neil and Alfie sat due to injury or simply to get a rest before tomorrow's game. We'll keep you posted. (Twitter)
Update: Coach Cory Clouston says Anton Volchenkov likely won't be back until the middle of next week. I thought his earlier claim that A-Train could return this weekend was a bit optimistic. (Twitter)

Alfie seems to be missing an awful lot of practices

When it isn't a game night for practice, it Alfredssons.

Alfie misses pretty much every non-game day practice, it seems. It’s not good at all.

He’s old. I don’t know what to tell you. I’d rather have him miss practices than games.

Absolutely, but it still seems like he’s missing an awful lot of practices for a 36 year old.

Agreed. I wish we knew if Clouston was just trying to keep him fresh or if he’s nursing some nagging injury.

I have a hard time having too much sympathy for the people who missed the game. It sucks, for sure, but really… whose fault is it?

Um, the Sens and/or the NHL?

If I had two tickets with 7:00pm printed on them, I’d probably assume the game was at 7:00pm, not at 2:00pm. I don’t think it’s the responsibility of fans to check online to ensure the game is still at the time on a printed ticket.

I don’t fault the fans on this one at all.

I guess you’re right. I just heard about it roughly a million times, but I guess I’m a little more tuned in to Senators news than a lot of other people.
