I'm not sweating. I had a bit of doubts when considering Johnson and believe if Buffalo hangs in the game it will be because of him. I'm not worried about Hammond a bit. This dude is the real deal all the way around. Remember last season when Talbot came on the scene and was impressing from his 1st start? With him I felt like when is this going to explode. You could see he was a very good goalie ,but I didn't feel he was going to be elite although he has been freaking solid as hell and may be for awhile.
My point being- with Hammond I see this dude being a beast and being the # 1 option for a long time. He truly is amazing and do not see it fading anytime soon. He may will Ottawa right into the playoffs and pray he does as the Senators are my team. Tho even beast goalies cant win them all and are bound to meet up against other beast in the league and get a lose. The other night we saw that with Dubnyk who has been a ridiculous tear lately. Johnson is capable of controlling a game but we have seen his vulnerability this year and being with Buffalo probably won't help this season for the remainder. Next year I do see the Sabres being much improved.
Really for 1 game if I lose I aint crying. I may be so off in how I felt about the game ,but since I was being nagged by this 5 goals by Ottawa since late last night I figured I may run with it.
