The Fireside

There are now only five regular season games left for the Ottawa Senators. They've been fighting really well, and we'll make the playoffs provided the Sens use their heads and don't goof up. Overall the team's had a great year, especially with the fact that we weren't predicted to do that well, Alfie was (and is) the heart and soul of the team. The glue that binds it all together. Or in this case, the hockey tape on the blade of a stick to prevent it from splintering. If this is his last season, he'll make a great exit. Then there's the All Star Games.  Of course with Ottawa coming close, so too are other teams. With Toronto losing to Carolina tonight, they're basically out. Ottawa seems set to play against Buffalo, Washington or Pittsburg...but we'll see exactly who. Either way, great seaosn for the Sens, but let's see how well we are after five games, and after first round of the playoffs....

The end is coming up. After tonight's match vs stinky Armpittsburg, (minus my homeboy from Nova Scotia, of course...no disrespect, but it's fun to haze on the opposing team) there are six regular season Sens games left....then it's off to the big leagues, aka playoffs, where it's killed or be killed. Once the teams are announced who made the cut, I'll be sure to make a post about who I like and want to move on, as around-by-round basis. In the meantime, Go Sens Go, and don't stop believen'....your army of red, gold, black, red and white are behind you.
