Game 50: Ottawa Senators @ Anaheim Ducks
Ottawa Senators at Anaheim Ducks, Jan 21, 2012 4:05 PM EST
The Ottawa Senators will continue their western road trip with an afternoon game in Anaheim. Andre Petersson will make his NHL debut as he comes in for Bobby Butler. Despite leaving the game in San Jose, Zack Smith and Kaspars Daugavins will both play (one doesn't give a crap about injuries and the other because he is Latvian). On defence, Matt Carkner will draw back into the lineup for Mark Borowiecki. As always, Craig Anderson will start.
The Senators did not practise today, but with Bobby Butler coming out, Petersson would likely take his spot on the fourth line. Here are my projections:
Colin Greening - Jason Spezza - Milan Michalek
Erik Condra - Kyle Turris - Daniel Alfredsson
Nick Foligno - Zack Smith - Chris Neil
Kaspars Daugavins - Zenon Konopka - Andre Petersson
Here are some things to look out for today:
- Petersson's debut: Having seen him play in a few preseason games as well as the rookie tournament, Petersson has some incredible skill. He does everything at full speed and the physicality of North American hockey hasn't gotten to him in the AHL. The NHL is a step up though and today will be a good experience for him to enjoy.
- Play well and win: The Senators have got the winning part right these days, but the playing well part? Not as much. It would be nice to have a solid game and win as well.
- Ducks surging: The Ducks might be out of the playoff hunt, but they have gone 6-0-1 in their last 7, scoring 31 goals in their six wins. It will be definitely a harder game than the standings might suggest.
- Craig Anderson continues to dominate: Anderson has allowed eight goals in the last six games and no more than two in any of them. It's been incredible stuff but Ottawa can't continue to win playing like this.

Can't wait to see Petersson bury all those sweet dishes
from Konopka and Daugavins…..
Seriously Neil, Zmith, Foligno, I’m looking at you to make Bell’s night hell.
Someone should Bertuzzi that asshole.

No please
I want him to hurt, but we don’t need anymore of that. Just a classic Neil borderline hit, but not Drury bad.
That is a terrible thing to say.

Anderson - i'm counting on you
As one of my two starters in my Yahoo pool, you’re making me look like a genius (well, you and that chump Rinne).
Sure would be nice though for the Sens to start playing the game at the same time the other team does for a change.
I remember Hoffman looking okay
and the fact that he was even noticable (good speed, hit a post) was impressive, in his few minutes on the 4th line.
I am interested to see Petersson play; maybe he can do the same. Can’t do worse than Butler; hopefully, Butler continues to work hard and practice and it will eventually result in something tangible. Until then, let’s see Petersson for a few games; maybe he can stick, maybe he can’t. Butler can always sub back after the break.
I like Borocop, but Carkner is not a bad call given the Ducks wrecking crew. Only downside is that 3rd line is going to be exposed for being slllllloooooowwwwww if they get caught out there against the top two Duck lines….heck, even the 3rd Duck line has had some offensive spark recently.

Maybe is Zsmith cared more… I guess i was just assuming that anyone with a “z” in their name must be fast.
sorry
i meant 3rd D line, or 3rd pair…
in any case, i think foligno and z. smith are good, hard physical, skaters. Don’t think they are all that fast, but they certainly aren’t slow……I say they are about a 7 to 8 on a scale of 1 to Karlsson/Greening…

I feel bad for Rob Butler.
I don’t think he’s earned his spot in the pressbox but I guess somebody’s gotta come out.

Well Petersson didn’t have to play. But I guess they didn’t want to take him from Binghamton without even giving him a game.

If anything, I think Butler has earned more playing time. But there’s a game to play Petersson, it’s this one, and not against a defensive system like the one Phoenix plays. No room for mistakes in that game.

No, he's actually right about this one
What happened four years ago doesn’t matter. Alfie is healthy and still playing, so there’s no point in deviating from the game plan just to try to get revenge. The win matters more at this point.
That said, if Bell gets smeared in the course of the game, I won’t lose any sleep.
Silver Seven - The Daniel Alfredsson of Ottawa Senators Blogs

on both accounts; 2008 doesn’t matter now,
and if Bell gets planted, its a bonus.

Fun fact: there's no indication that playing 70+ starts affects performance
It’s this widely accepted phenomenon, with about zero evidence to support it.
by TheGuineaPig on Jan 21, 2012 4:04 PM EST up reply actions
But there must be a reason why teams don't do it frequently, right?
Silver Seven - The Daniel Alfredsson of Ottawa Senators Blogs
There's no real answer for that
Some teams do it. Depends on the organization. Brodeur, Kiprusoff, Luongo, Lundqvist… there have been guys who got numerous 70+ start seasons, with no effect upon their performance.
I think it has something to do with conventional wisdom, and perhaps fear of injury. It doesn’t have much to do with the starter’s skill. Guys like Fuhr or Kiprusoff got tons of starts even when they weren’t very good goalies, whereas Roy never reached 70 games in his career, and Hasek just the once.

Yeah, I think it works at HP Pav. and at the Joe better than at GM Place
But I’ve never been to GM Place or HP, just from tv
I'd agree with that idea
GM Place is a weird building. The concources are tight, and the stairs are cramped and hardly plentiful. It’s dead in the lower seats. It’s also too expensive to see a game, so all the fun and rowdy fans are watching from home.
It’s actually not that bad of an arena. It’s the atmosphere that ruins it. It’s not bad, per se, just not as fun as other arenas. I’m guessing Darren would agree.
I did see Czech Republic-Slovakia during the Olympics there, and that was the most fun I’ve ever had in a rink. The key difference was the fans.

I think Baltimore's secondary is underrated while their pass rush is overrated.

The Rangers took Dylan McIlrath over him. That was really stupid cause McIlrath's numbers are pretty bad in the WHL.

McIlrath isn't an offensive guy
He’s Andy Sutton.You can’t really judge him based on numbers. The WHL is a rough and tumble league. Putting up high stats is tougher there than the Q or O. Guys like Mark Stone and Brendan Gallagher are anomalies.

True. But McIlrath really isn't a 10th overall guy. Guys like Fowler can you win you games, while guys like McIlrath you can find cheap on the open market.

I wonder how many points Spezza would get if Vigneault was our coach
The man sure knows how to use his assets. The Sedins start in the offensive zone just under 80% of the time.

That's actually a really good question
With his newish two-way game, Spezza would actually get ice time in Vancouver. Vigneault hates players whose games tilt significantly to the offensive side. See: Cody Hodgson.
Karlsson would still be second pairing there.

it was still a tight game for the most part of what I saw… and as stated above, still only 2G against. all positives for a rebuilding team
We had to lose one sooner or later.
Sens had been doing a good job of winning games they probably should have lost, so I’m not going to lose much sleep over this one. If we split the LA-PHX games, we’ll be 3-2 on the road trip, and I’ll be quite happy with that. Ottawa’s played 11 games in 21 days this month, and that’s gotta wear on the team at some point. Hopefully after they get a bit of rest, they’ll have a bit more jump.
