Senators Have Examples for What They Need to Do
August 18th, 2020 While Ottawa Senators general manager Pierre Dorion is focused on who to select in the upcoming NHL Draft, he would be wise to also take a look at successful non-draft acquisitions made by Stanley Cup-winning teams. For example, in the lead-up to the 2009 NHL trade deadline, the Pittsburgh Penguins acquired Chris Kunitz. At the time, he...
Ottawa Senators' Goalie Options for 2020-21
July 31st, 2020 Earlier, I wrote about the Ottawa Senators' young goalies. While there is plenty of hope for the long term future with that young group, the short term is much more of a question mark. While Craig Anderson has yet to make an announcement about his future, his last few seasons were mediocre and at the age of 39 and without a contract,...
Ottawa Senators' History of Game 7 Struggles
July 24th, 2020 The two best words in sports: Game 7. That is unless you're an Ottawa Senators fan. Not once has the fanbase been able to revel in post-Game 7 pandamonium following a win.

The Beginning White was selected 21st overall in the 2015 NHL Draft. There was nothing strange about him being chosen in that range, but unfortunately, Ottawa 67's star Travis Konecny was still available,...
Senators' All-Time One and Done Goalies
July 15th, 2020 My last article took a look at the 10 Ottawa Senators' skaters who had played just one NHL game with the organization. As for the goalies, it's a much smaller list - only 38 goalies have played at the NHL level for the Senators. Of those guys, there are five who were one and done. There's a decent chance that number drops to four in the...
Senators' All-Time One and Done Skaters
July 14th, 2020 In the history of the Ottawa Senators, 346 skaters have played for them. Of those skaters, 10 played just one game. I’d like to introduce you to the Ottawa One and Done Senators' Skaters: 1992-93: Martin St. Amour A former 2nd round pick of the Montreal Canadiens, St. Amour played his one game towards the end of the Senators'...
