The Noon Number: 15

by Peter Raaymakers on Jan 21, 2012 12:00 PM EST in Ottawa Senators Noon Number

15 - Points (five goals, 10 assists) for Daniel Alfredsson in 18 career regular-season games against the Anaheim Ducks, making him tops among current Senators for success against the Anaheim franchise. Alfredsson also has five points (four goals, one assist) in five career playoff games against Anaheim.

Second on the team in regular-season points against the once-Mighty Ducks is, unsurprisingly, Milan Michalek, who played most of his games against that team while with the San Jose Sharks. Michalek has scored 12 points (five goals, seven assists) in 30 regular-season games against Anaheim.

You might be able to guess who's third, but you might also be a little surprised by it: Filip Kuba has 10 points (three goals, seven assists) in 22 career regular-season games against Anaheim, mostly from his years spent playing with the Minnesota Wild.

Ottawa has an all-time regular-season record of 8-9-2 plus two ties against the Anaheim franchise.

I'd have guessed Gonchar would be #1 or #2...Kuba?

Also..on the Mark Bell note. I always kinda liked him up until the whole “driving while blotto and almost-kiling someone” and “trying to take #11’s head off” thing. I wish him well….but only sort of. I guess any ex-67 and ex-Kilrea player has a soft spot in my world.

Even Mike Peca.

surprising

considering that Ottawa was a topnotch team from 1999-2007, and a playoff team from 1997-2008, I would think that the records against similar time period expansion teams would be better. I realize the Sharks have been a contender for many years, and the Ducks have had several good runs since 2003.

Maybe that in part stems from, when we were an expansion team, we lost every game to nearly every body?

Can’t see Mark Bell having an impact on tonight’s game, unless he runs around. But Neil, Konopka, and others can try to keep him in line.

Really annoyed by Mcginn running our guys the other night.
