Ottawa Senators vs Toronto Maple Leafs

Now I'm not one to condone acts of revenge in sports but in this case I hope the Senators make an exception. This night marks the first time the Senators and Leafs square off since April 3 of last season, the night when Leafs convict Mark Bell took out both Alfredsson and Fisher, both with questionable hits. Now I'm not hoping for a Bertuzzi-esque incident but it would be nice to see someone make sure Mark answers the Bell.

Answer 4

definitely the Winter Classic for me

I'm also excited that the Wings are playing on my birthday...that's one thing I'll have to look forward to that day when I come home from school lol
