As expected, a lot of the post-game-one talk is about Gary Roberts and his penchant for burying the Senators. Roberts himself is almost the physical embodiment of all of Ottawa's past failures and now he's reared his battle scarred head out of the abyss.

"I was at the bottom of the pile, so I don't know who was punching me," he said. "I just knew I was getting hit a lot."
Roberts' puffy right eyelid showed it. It looked as if it were about to explode.
Roberts clearly loved it."
