I have combined these two games, because they were back to back and really put the first nail in the coffin of the Senators. Fresh off a big win in the Heritage Classic in Vancouver, the Senators went to Alberta with a real chance to move back into a playoff spot and gain some late season momentum against a pair of bottom dwellers. Instead, Ales Hemsky crushed them in the first half the night before becoming a Senator, and then with their new acquisition in the lineup they laid an egg and lost to Joni Ortio and the Calgary Flames to go 0-for-Alberta and the realization that a playoff spot might not be forthcoming.
