Sens dismantled the Thrash on Saturday 7-3. It was closer than the score in some respects. The 'Thrash scored on a 5-on-3 midway through the 3rd to make it 3-5. Then they got a full 2-minute 5-on-3. But the Sens were the ones to score two goals, and instead of a tie game, it was a blowout. It reminded me of last time these teams met. 5-goal lead by the Sens, which ended 6-4. I think the Thrashers tactic is to lure the Sens asleep by giving them a huge lead.
The bad thing was that Fisher got injured and is out with an abdominal strain. On the bright side, I think it is a good chance for Vermette to show what he can do. He's been pretty solid with limited minutes. I think most GMs want to steal him away. He's got skills, but is used as a PK specialist and 3rd liner. I think he will post some numbers, if he gets paired with Alfredsson. The guy is creative and fast. We'll see.
