Yeah, The Bruins Got Hosed
When writing a gamer, it can be tough to find just the right verb. You can’t just say a team “won” every time, or that they “beat” their opponents, because overuse gets boring, and you want to convey something of the substance of the game. Did they “dominate,” “thrash,” or “spank” the other team? Or...
Erik Karlsson's Hail Mary Set Up A Marvelous Goal
Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson set up Mike Hoffman’s opening goal against the Bruins this evening with an inch-perfect pass he lofted over the heads of a few defenders from his own goal. Hoffman received it coolly and banged in a sly little finish of his own....
Mark Stone Knocked Out Of Game By Being Checked In The Head
Jacob Trouba’s shoulder cracked Mark Stone’s face and knocked the Senators forward out of the game—drawing just a two-minute minor penalty, to the dismay of Ottawa fans and coach Guy Boucher....
Craig Anderson Posts Shutout In Emotional Return After Wife's Cancer Diagnosis
There is, I think, something universal to be taken from Senators goalie Craig Anderson’s return to the team after a truncated personal leave to be with his wife Nicholle, who was recently diagnosed with cancer: When life gets hard, you can always lose yourself in your passion, or your work, and idea...
Auston Matthews Is Ready
It’s appropriate that the happiest and most hopeful Maple Leafs fans have been in exactly three seasons and 15 minutes is after a game they lost. But though the Senators prevailed 5-4 in overtime of the season opener, it’s obvious that Toronto—and, hell, the rest of us—should be very, very excited. ...
Fight Breaks Out At Senators Practice After Patrick Sieloff Hits Clarke MacArthur

Winnipeg Jets Prospect Arrested, Tased After Allegedly Fighting A Cop At Disney World
Darren Kramer, a winger in the Winnipeg Jets organization who currently plays for the AHL’s Manitoba Moose, was arrested at approximately 1:16 a.m. Tuesday after allegedly fighting a police officer at Disney World and getting tased. According to police, Kramer scuffled with the officer so that his f...
I Don't Like This Strange New World Where The Maple Leafs Know What They're Doing
It went from rumor to official real quickly: the Toronto Maple Leafs have sent captain Dion Phaneuf to the Ottawa Senators in a nine-player deal, and I’m about to hit a heretofore unprecedented sequence of keystrokes here, but the Leafs seem like they have a plan and they’re pulling it off real well...
Bobby Ryan Scores, Earns Two Kids A New Puppy

No One Has Enjoyed The Ottawa Senators As Much As This Kid

Chris Neil Celebrates 900th Game With A Very Cordial Fight
Chris Neil is somewhat of an Ottawa Senators lifer, having played 13 seasons-long career with the team and notching his 900th game on Thursday. The Senators lost 5-4, but Neil had himself a game, scoring, assisting, and wrasslin’, all in a mere 6:17 of ice time....
Ottawa Senators Make Public Plea Seeking Liver Donor For Ailing Owner
A statement issued today on the Ottawa Senators’ official web page announced that team owner Eugene Melnyk is in urgent need of a live liver donor, with links for fans to investigate if they might be a match. Melnyk had been conspicuously absent during the team’s run to the Stanley Cup playoffs, and...
Kyle Turris, Damn
There is still plenty of room on the Senators bandwagon (which you should not board, because it will undoubtedly career off the road and burst into flames with impeccable comedic timing)....
Andrew Hammond Wins Again, Raises Hamburger In Triumph
Andrew Hammond's story is the best in the NHL right now, and the Senators are pushing for a miracle. But I can't shake the sense that the headline here ought to be "Magic hamburger doesn't explode after being thrown onto the ice." ...
Nothing Like A Well-Executed Hip Check
What's better than a clean hip check, like this one by Senators defenseman Marc Methot on Coyotes winger Lucas Lessio Saturday night? A man flips upside down, falls on his ass, and doesn't get hurt. No one even tried to fight Methot after his hip check, because they knew it was flawless....
Gustav Nyquist Holds Puck For About Half A Minute Before Scoring
Gustav Nyquist's overtime winner against the Senators last night can't fit into a GIF. You need to watch the full video to appreciate it. The Red Wing got the puck at 1:17, and scored with 48 seconds left....
Radim Vrbata's Patience Results In A Gorgeous Goal
Canucks forward Radim Vrbata waited, and waited, and waited. Then, he completely fooled Senators goalie Craig Anderson for his 12th goal of the season. Be sure to watch the replay at the end. So pretty....
Hockey Fan Fight Starts And Ends With A Flight Down The Stairs
This starts off just like any other fight between fans at a sporting event, with two guys puffing up their chests and talking some shit while the rest of the crowd waits for something to happen. It escalates quickly when a bystander decides to get things moving with a beer to the head, and then it r...
