    I will tell you what line scares me the most… the Ruutu, Neil and Winchester line. Too much size for our fourth line to handle, too much speed for our 3rd line to take on (for my comfort level). Could be a touch match up for us

    Ottawa’s press says we’ll win. Who are we to argue. :D

    “THE PREDICTION: I think the Senators are on the cusp of turning this ship around after a tough week, but it’s a tall task to accomplish against this young, strong Kings squad. I like Ottawa’s chances better against another Pacific Division opponent, the Dallas Stars, who are in here on Wednesday. Senators 1, Kings 4.”

    I’m half expecting to see Westie get some time with Carkner tonight. Prediction: Carkner early; Westie late, Westie at the finish as his body shots leave Carkner folded and winded.

    @BrokeKingsFan, I appreciated seeing Richie scoring off Westie’s work! That 4th line contributing could get really important here soon…

    O.K. enough of work and family issues today; time to sit, drink and watch hockey.

    Look out for Ruutu; he plays like a little punk and has been known for some dirty hits in the past.

    I want to see B. Murray and Jimmy F. throw down in the hallway!!

    Great hit by Smyth. Kovalev had his head down and held on to the puck for way too long.
