Will Eller
Game fours pregame stated that being up three games to one is a lot better then being tied two games a piece. Simply because you didn't want to give the Sens momentum. Todays pregame is more of the same. Finish this tonight boys we don't want to renew our visas.
Game four was a crazy game to say the least but let me dive into some thoughts from Tuesday night. The Pens continued to hit everything that moved and it continued to frustrate the Sens. Malkin hits Neil late in the game and he goes all Ron Hextall on him. The Sens can't handle the fore check of the Penguins and tonight we need to continue that trend. Tonight the Sens won't have the crowd to feed off of, so if we get up early they should lay down pretty fast. I hope.
The Senators will change goalies for tonight's game, Elliott out Pascal Leclair in. Welcome to the big league Pascal.
The Penguins will be without Tyler Kennedy (Kennedy) and Fedotenko will replace him. I wonder the way Neil and Sutton have been playing if Eric Goddard should be playing tonight.
Your projected lineups for tonight:
Dupuis-Malkin-Ponikarovsky
Cooke-Staal-Fedotenko
Rupp-Talbot-Adams
Eaton-Letang
McKee-Goligoski
My keys for the game:
1.) Don't let them hang around - score early and put them away.
2.) Powerplay - when they take the cheep penalty make them pay.
3.) Marc Andre Fleury - be ready to steal one if necessary
***late addition, it worked for game 4, gotta add it again***
Its not the current version from the DVE morning show, but it gets me going for games so I thought I would share.
