What the opposition is reading

Ottawa Sun Front Page:




Sens won't quit

These Penguins believe in magic

Fans feel Sens desperation


Seriously? Resorting to "burning twigs" for good luck. Maybe if they did some voo-doo dolls in the likeness of a referee some of the calls would go their way too!

And there's some speculation that the Pens are going to "throw" this game just like "they tanked on the last regular season game against the Flyers" just so the series can come back to the 'Burgh for a game 5 ensuring the team an extra home game and the revenue that goes with that. Poppycock! Obviously there are going to be home playoff games when the Pens advance to the Conference Semi Finals after they beat the Senators. There could be as many as 4 home games in the next round if the series were to go to 7. Why would they want to blow a first round game against a team that has all but conceded defeat and sacrifice several of the extra days off that they will earn when they win tonight? That's just asinine!
