The Ottawa Senators are headed to the Eastern Conference finals for the second time in four years. Ironicaly, they beat the team they had met in the last conference final they had participated in. Ray Emery, who had made headlines before the game, when he missed the team flight because he had overslept and got in to a fender bender on his way to the airport, stood up and played the game he needed to and now everything will be forgotten.The Sens will surely be watching this afternoon's game between the Sabres and Rangers. Even though they don't really care who they play in the Conference final, I'm sure that deep down, they hope that the Series goes seven games and is won in quadruple overtime.
Lou Lamoriello will have alot of explaining to do, for his decision to replace Claude Julien with three games left in the season. It's time for Martin Brodeur to take a lesser work load during the regular season. Playing 75 to 78 games a year is becoming too much, espacially in the more open NHL.
