Sens Grind Out Another Close Win - Ottawa 2 Columbus 1


Beating Columbus on the back end of two games in two nights shows that Ottawa isn't lacking in the grit or heart department.

Injured, tired and facing a Blue Jacket team that was waiting for them in Ottawa, the Senators somehow managed to keep their home winning streak alive on a wraparound goal from Nick Foligno.

Not much time to blog tonight so the 3 stars will have to do.

Sometimes I wonder if Hitchcock and Lemaire get together before the season starts and make a bet to see who can coach a more boring game.

Hitchcock: Hey Jacques, my team will be more boring than yours this year.

Lemaire: No it won't. Mine will be really boring.

Hitchcock: You wanna bet?

Lemaire: You're on. Let's bet the regular. A can of paint.

Hitchcock: Great! I can't wait to paint my wall and watch it dry.
