He was really worried when he learned that they had drawn the Sens. In his words "they often seem to surprise the Penguins". He noted that when Sens are on, they seem unbeatable - and this worries him. I think my friend is right. If the Sens show up. If Alfie shows up. If Spezza shows up. Volch, Big Rig, Karlesson. Fish. Elliot. Pens are done.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04564364014637030634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9215652504344172254.post-38411452699609356772010-04-11T17:25:37.996-04:002010-04-11T17:25:37.996-04:00I say Senators in six!

I was worried that it was going to be a bit over the top, given that he still has three years until retirement. But, I thought they struck the right balance. It was classy and just right.<br /><br />Sens vs Pens? I like the Sens chances. Would I bet on it? No. But, I still think that we can win.<br /><br />The Sens have shown that they can hang with the Pens.<br /><br />If we win, we win in 7.<br /><br />Elliott is key. We need his "A" game.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
