As a fan, facing the Canadiens can be an exhausting excercise so I thought I'd help arm you with a few choice team stats that you can toss out if you need to.
For starters, the Sens have netted 40 goals in their first 11 games (which is nearly double Montreal's 22 over the same span) good for 3rd most in the NHL this season. It probably helps that they start with the puck a lot as they currently sit 2nd in face-off win percentage at 53.8%.
Now let's take a moment to look at the Sens' vaunted penalty kill which is clicking at a 90% success rate to start the year, 3rd best in the league. For starters, Ottawa has taken the 5th fewest penalties (38) and blocked the 2nd most shots (199) this season so less opportunity and less shots getting through have proven to be a good thing (crazy, right?). The Sens are also tied for first in penalty kill goal differential at a ridiculous -1 (tied with the Kings). That means Ottawa has only given up 3 power play goals all season while scoring twice while shorthanded. Not too shabby.
So there you go, hopefully some of Ottawa's league best team stats can help you squash an argument in the stands, at the bar or at home tonight...probably not but good luck.
