Corvo, Cassie Campbell and Country Music: Senators at Nashville Game Summary

Tonight the Sens faced off against the Nashville Predators. An accurate description of this game would be "Sens vs. Nashville". The game featured long moments of sloppy play from both teams and extended periods of neutral zone play. Although it wasn't the most exciting of games, it was still a dangerous roller coaster of emotions that resulted in a Senators win. If you like reliving near death experiences and the thrill of adrenaline, then this game summary is perfect for you.

Denis: "Hey Mike, don't you think I'm better than Cassie Campbell?"

Bossy: "your a specialist?"

20:00 - I hear the familiar voice of Dean Brown. I become happy as I await the friendly greeting from Denis Potvin. I remember that this is a CBC game. I become sad.

19:35 - Cassie Campbell says something that makes zero sense. She will be my Potvin tonight.

Sometime in 1st period - CBC Scoreboard displays 4:36 left in period.

Shortly after - CBC Scoreboard displays 15:24 left in period.

10:30 - Joe Corvo draws hilarious tripping penalty.

8:15 - Joe Corvo trips Viktor Stalberg on breakaway. Penalty shot. Save made by Anderson. Guy wearing black SENS jersey in lower bowl at Bridgestone Arena raises arms in celebration.

5:47 - I realize that there is an advertisement for dog food on the ice.

0:06 - Cory Conacher gets punched in face.

END OF 1st PERIOD

At least Conacher wasn't punched by this guy

COACH's CORNER

• I am fooled once again after I think Coach's Corner will start but there's actually another commercial before.

• "Bing Bing Zinger!" 

• "y'know you've gotta remember he's from Kingston 6 foot 5"

• Cherry mocks CBC's upcoming segment, complains about time and says something about Sportsnet being better.

2ND PERIOD

17:35 - Mika Zibanejad takes tripping penalty.

17:25 - Predators announcer announces penalty which features part where crowd yells "POWERPLAY!". Reminds me of "Wheel of Fortune!"

14:40 - Mark Stone unleashes his inner Condra and misses wide open net.

13:37 - Strange bounce or something. Turris puts puck in empty net. Strange jazz organ music plays.

1-0 Ottawa

7:37 - I see an advanced stats graph on Twitter. I analyze it for 6 minutes before concluding that I will never understand it.

6:33 - Jared Cowen goes for wraparound. Compensation for Neil's absence.

5:00 - Colin Greening gets in a fun filled fight. Good Newfoundland boy!

4:03 - Rich Clune boards Jared Cowen. Spezza drops the mitts. Nothing really happens.

3:01 - Mike Fisher slaps home a goal. I will never use the term "slap home a goal" ever again.

1-1 Tie

END OF 2nd PERIOD

20:00 to 19:00 - Dean Brown and Cassie Campbell discuss Nashville, country music and Tim Murray.

12:45 - Dean Brown mentions that many people from Ottawa ate dinner with Fisher and Carrie Underwood last night. Rumors suggest that the guests consisted of Bruce Garrioch and Don Brennan.

7:30 - Clip of Nashville fans doing strange things. Camera then shows Ottawa fans doing normal things.

END OF UNEVENTFUL 3rd PERIOD
