It happened during a gritty 2-1 win over the New York Rangers , where the Senators allowed just nine shots on goal. Travis Green gave an update on both Thomas Chabot & Lassi Thomson post game: "They'll both be out for a while, that's about all I can...
Mika’s 1,000th game deserved better—but a no-show effort and nine total shots summed up another brutal night.

Craig Berube addressed the media after his team’s 5-2 loss to the Ottawa Senators, which dropped the Maple Leafs’ record to 29-29-13. On the difference in the game: The first period was good. We took a dumb penalty, in my opinion, and they scored. It was an unnecessary penalty. In the second period, they took […]

After the Islanders spent 60 minutes in Ottawa trying to shoot themselves in the foot — only to finally hit the mark with 11 seconds to go — they’ve got a pretty significant back-to-back here to finish the Canada road trip in Montreal and then return home for a pivotal Sunday meeting with the surging […]
This one suuuucks. Brady Tkachuk’s goal with 11 seconds left was a gut punch, but the Islanders squandered two leads, going up in the second period thanks to Matthew Schaefer, and then again early in the third thanks to Brayden Schenn. But Schenn’s goal was the ONLY SHOT ON GOAL FOR THE ISLANDERS IN THE […]
Tkaptain Tklutch!
Sorry folks, forgot the game time for this one. Here’s a late-in-posting game thread for the Islanders in Ottawa. Still 0-0 at the time of posting, so…whatever happens from here on out is a direct result.
Time for some damage control!
A game that felt like a playoff preview going in provided everything you could have wanted. Sean Walker’s overtime goal with 29 seconds left was the difference as the Carolina Hurricanes took the extra point over the Pittsburgh Penguins Wednesday night in Raleigh. The game provided action from the jump with the return of Sidney […]
A tough break for the Ottawa Senators, who have learned that veteran defenseman Nick Jensen is officially done for the season. As Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Citizen writes, Jensen will be undergoing knee surgery to repair a torn meniscus, and he " has likely suited up for his last game with the Ottawa Senators." Nick Jensen will miss about six weeks due to a knee injury, per @SunGarrioch . He has likely played his last game with the Ottawa Senators. pic.twitter.com/G883ShDrxb — PuckEmp...
A St. Patty's Day Prospect Update.
However the rest of the season shakes out for the Ottawa Senators , the team looks to be heading toward an important offseason, and general manager Steve Staios has already identified where the roster might need help. Speaking during a recent interview with TSN’s Claire Hanna , Staios made it clear that strengthening the blue line will be a major focus once the season wraps up, even though the organization still believes in the core group currently in place.

The Islanders begin their last road “trip” of the regular season as they head north of the border for visits to tanking Toronto and still playoff-holding Montreal and playoff-hopeful Ottawa. After this trip, they’ll finish with 10 of 12 games at home and only single-game trips to make up those two away games in Buffalo […]
Ottawa got what they needed, they just made it harder than it had to be.
From Ducks to Sharks
The San Jose Sharks get ready for the second game of back-to-backs today. The good news for the Sharks is that the Ottawa Senators are also playing the second game of a back-to-back, albeit with a bit more rest. The Senators played yesterday afternoon against the Anaheim Ducks and were kind enough to do the Sharks a favor and beat the Ducks 2-0. Ullmark made 23 saves for the shutout.
For those of you playoff race watching, that loss allowed the Vegas Golden Knights (F*** Vegas) to leapfro...

The Ottawa Senators are breathing a big sigh of relief today, as the NHL has announced that the team will no longer lose their first-round pick in the 2026 Draft over the Evgenii Dadonov trade controversy of a few years back. Instead, the penalty has been revised so that the Sens will receive the 32nd and final pick of the first round and are not eligible for the Draft Lottery to change that position. They cannot trade that pick, and they will also pay a $1 million fine. #NHL announces that it...
It is reportedly just an illness for Cole Caufield, and not an injury as the initial concern was. He should be back soon, but he won’t play this important game tonight.
First period
A very calm glove save for Jacob Fowler will start this game off. That will calm some nerves on the bench (and behind it).
On the second shot he gets run into by Dylan Cozens in the crease, and that will put Montreal on the power play.
A blind pass from Nick Suzuki catches three Senators def...
