8 tweets that defined Game 5 of the Senators-Penguins series

Oh, you've come to relive Game 5 in the NHL Eastern Conference Final, between the Ottawa Senators and Pittsburgh Penguins?

Well, it started with a bit of deja vu, courtesy the Penguins' Olli Maatta.

Then this happened.

There was a third goal, we'll spare you.

Fans were starting to feel the pressure, but it wasn't going to get any better.

It happened to be Ottawa Senators goalie Craig Anderson's birthday today.

In an odd move, after the third goal coach Guy Boucher pulled Anderson and replaced him with Condon. Then, he put him back in and that didn't go well.

Watching a game with a 4-0 lead seemed to be so much better last time.

Some were hanging onto hope that Ottawa could come back.

This proved to be misguided.

The second period was a little better — as in, the Penguins only get one more goal against the Sens.

Then the Penguins scored a sixth goal to start the third period and a seventh before the game was done.

The Senators failed to get on the scoreboard in Game 5.

After all of that, some fans declared they were #ALLOUT. But there were plenty hoping that the Sunday afternoon embarrassment would motivate the team in Tuesday's Game 6, when the Senators will be back on home ice.
