Yes we can!

I almost put a Bob the Builder graphic below, but I resisted the urge. Partially because I've done it before...



But it was nice to see the boys battle back from a two-goal deficit, especially since it hasn't happened too often this season. But it's different now, with the Senators winning two out of every three games. They were able to battle back with some tremendous efforts from some new key players. Ryan Shannon was the first with a great move on Dwayne Roloson, and an extra fist pump to the referee while on his back on the ice. Classic!

Then there was Nick Foligno who was able to pick up a "garbage-type" goal because he was crashing the net. It was also helped by the fact that Zack Smith actually threw the puck at the net. I said it once and I'll say it again and again: put the puck on the net, and good things will happen. Curtis McElhinney also gave a stand-up performance all around, as well as Erik Karlsson who was arguably the best offensive player on the ice.

Of course, muchos kudos to Jason Spezza for the game winner. Spezza has been impressing the pants off of me of late. Anyone who was worried about his character and decication need only see how happy the whole team was on the game winning goal. Karlsson actually jumped in Spezza's arms. It was as if they'd won the Divison finals or something.

I love watching the Senators play these days, and most of the fans can't get enough either.

GO SENS GO!!
