To most Sens fans, this is just another game, but not to the Mayor. As you may recall, I had a major decision on who I should make my western conference team, with the Los Angeles Kings finally winning out. So tonight's game is a battle of my favorite team and my west coast team, their only meeting of the year. In case you were wondering, my allegiance of course remains with the Sens and always will. I'm just hoping for a fast paced, exciting game.The big news in Senator land of course, is that Nick Foligno has been made a healthy scratch and Peter Jensen will take his place. For some reason, Keller remains in the lineup, perhaps they value is skill of invisibility. Other then that, the squad remains the same, with Brian Eliott starting in net again, looking for a more consistent performance.

The game is at 10:30pm on TSN.
Prediction: I just can't decide. It's like picking between your two children, you just can't bring yourself to do it. I'm just hoping for a good game.
Thoughts on tonight's game?

your two children? sure if one of the children is someone else's that you're babysitting
lol good point
maybe like one child and your new girl's step kid or something would be more appropriate
I really don't like sitting Foligno, he has worked just as hard as Cheechoo, and Foligno is a plus player, and he contributes offense from time to time.
Cheechoo is a minus, he takes bad penalties, and he is much slower than Foligno which is saying alot.
Keller, has got no ice time and done nothing with it, so I don't know what this is about. Maybe they are not sitting Cheechoo because it will make Murray look bad or something.
Foligno definitely does not deserve to sit.
Maybe Foligno is being traded?
Sens win 4-3 in a shootout... they are trading Foligno and Lee for Georges Laraque.
wow WHAT A START, could he be more WIDE OPEN?
What do you think Mr. Mayor. For me that one was hard to take, we can't keep losing.
Fisher is back.
Karlsson is finally showing his upside but has to stop making bonehead plays (pinching and then backpassing).
I think Carkner still thinks he is playing forward.
By far Cheechoo's best game with the Sens.
Kuba is a pylon out there.
I have had enough of Spezza and am all for benching him. In my opinion he is holding back the first line, he is just lazy. The shift with about 8 minutes left in the third when the Kings had the puck in the Sens end for a good 40s it was because Spezza was pretty much trying to avoid getting near the puck and having to do something. If he is covering someone and the puck come to them he just covers someone else. He showed nothing when Ottawa was pressing in the third. Forechecking he does the same thing, tries to escape the puck. Skating through open ice is no good, he has to take the puck to the net as show some heart. He is just as terrible defensively as he has ever been and he can't score.
Even better, just bag skate Spezza every practice until he starts working in the games.
