Senators Defeat the Kraken; Forsberg Earns Shutout #2

November 3, 2024 - 7:39 PM ET

by Ken Hawkins (a.k.a. khawk) Despite their overall improved play, inconsistent effort and slow starts have been a problem for the Senators early in the 2024/25 season. However, their game vs. Seattle on Hockey Night in Canada was probably the most consistent 60 minute effort they’ve had all ye...

Senators Lose to NYI, Fall Below .500

November 8, 2024 - 8:29 AM ET

by Ken Hawkins (a.k.a. khawk) The Senators inexplicably came out flat vs. the NYI on Thursday, and lost a game they easily could have won by a 4-2 margin.

November 15, 2024 - 2:17 PM ET

By Ken Hawkins (a.k.a. khawk) If the Ottawa Senators should fall just a couple of points short of making the playoffs this year, it will be hard for them to not look back at the first 16 games of the season with a profound sense of regret. Despite having home-ice advantage vs. a sub-.500 team, a...

NHL Referees Decide Outcome of Senators-Hurricanes Game

November 17, 2024 - 7:11 PM ET

By Ken Hawkins (a.k.a. khawk) At one point, there was quite a good hockey game going on Saturday night between the Senators and Hurricanes. CAR came out to an early 1-0 lead on home ice, but OTT was trying to fight back in the 2nd period against a tough playoff-quality opponent. Then the Senators...
