Pittsburgh PenguinsThe legend of Jean-Gabriel Pageau is growing in Ottawa! Yes I said Jean-Gabriel Pageau! No, not Erik Karlsson, Daniel Alfredsson, or even Craig Anderson but rather the man I will call JGP quite often from here on out because it’s much easier. Now it’s certainly a bit early to say legend, but when you score your ...
The Ottawa Senators have received a major boost moving forward into the playoffs as their Norris Trophy winning defenceman, Erik Karlsson, has officially returned to the line-up and returned in top notch form it appears. You do remember Erik Karlsson don’t you? Of course you do, after all he’s only been out ten weeks, far ...
If the Washington Capitals came into Thursday night’s game full on streaking then the Ottawa Senators came into it half-dressed, having won three straight themselves. The contest was a pivotal one for both teams in terms of playoff positioning as they continued their drive towards a postseason berth while trying to fend off the competition. It was also an obvious clash of styles between the high flying Caps and the defensively focused Sens and many wondered which team would be able to assert their game upon the other. When the horn sounded after 60 minutes at Scotia Bank Place the answer was clear.
It hardly seems fair to label the Ottawa Senators as a team that’s out of gas following their 2-1 loss to the Florida Panthers Sunday night. After all they did outshoot the Panthers 41-17 in a dominating performance from start to finish. They were simply bettered by the incredible performance of Florida goaltender Scott Clemmensen ...
Yes talking about this season’s Ottawa Senators and their great play while overcoming injuries may have become old hat, but the fact is every point they earn continues to make them one of the best stories of the National Hockey League season.

It’s Saturday night, it’s Hockey Night In Canada. You know the ...
The Ottawa Senators have continued to find ways to earn points this season and that’s been the story for them so far in early March as well. They’ve started the month 1-2-2 and while that is far from stellar, it’s 4 more valuable points as they stay afloat in the playoff race. The team has ...
It was at the 12:29 mark of the 3rd period during Saturday afternoons’ game at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia when Flyers PA announcer Lou Nolan informed the crowd of a rarity. That rarity being that Ottawa Senators Captain Daniel Alfredsson had received a 5-minute major penalty for cross-checking and a game misconduct. The Sens lost ...
It was regarded around the National Hockey League and throughout hockey circles as a good hire when the Ottawa Senators named Paul MacLean as the new Head Coach on June 14, 2011. The opportunity was the first for MacLean as a Head Coach at the NHL Level after successful stints in the minor leagues and ...
The injury bug bit the Ottawa Senators hard again Wednesday night in the form of a sliced achilles tendon for star defenceman Erik Karlsson. Last years’ Norris Trophy Winner, Karlsson, was off to another great start this year with a team leading 6 goals as well as 4 assists for 10 points, putting him only ...
