Sens Callups - Ottawa Senators Podcast

Originally Aired:  March 15, 2013  After a pretty positive week (unless you’re Lehner in the shoot out) the Sens put up 4 out of 6 possible points.  Of course the week doesn’t go on without controversy with the Daugavins shootout attempt and the inconsistency and ridiculousness of the instigating with a visor penalties.   - Sens 3 @ Rangers 2- Bruins 3 @ Sens 2 SO- Sens 3 @ Habs 4 SO We look at po...

Originally Aired: March 7, 2013  We get together and try out a new audio setup.  Unfortunately, it doesn’t work out to the level of quality that we were hoping for, but hey – we’re new at this. Speaking of new, this whole team being made of young players and it seems that some of the spark may be fading a little in the win column.   - Ottawa 1 @ Boston 2 OT- Ottawa 1 @ Philadelphia 2- Ottawa 2 @ N...

Originally Aired: February 28, 2013  After a fantastic week and sweeping home games, Ben Bishop has led the team through some very close games with unexpected heroics coming from Daugavins and Regin. - Rangers 2 @ Sens 3 SO- Laughs 2 @ Sens 3- Habs 1 @ Sens 2 SO We are joined by our good old friend and familiar voice of Russell from the old show to discuss the season up to now and look at some mov...

Originally Aired: February 24, 2013  After an exciting night out where all three Call Ups were in attendance in the Leafs and Sens game, we couldn’t wait to get back on the air to talk about it. Leafs 2 @ Sens 3! We bounce around and talk about the game and the atmosphere of the arena.  With fear of being totally embarrassed with the visiting blue shirts in the stands, the Sens stand up for themse...

Originally Aired: February 20, 2013  Coming out of the depths of despair with the loss of the Apostle, the Sens bear down and end up with fairly good results in granted some sub par performances in the mean time - Sens 0 @ Leafs 3- Sens 2 @ Devils 1 SO- Isles 1 @ Sens 3 Seems that the long list of injuries isn’t an issue and the call ups are fitting in great.  We take a quick spin around the leagu...

Originally Aired: February 14, 2013  Well, a huge disappointing blow as Erik Karlsson seems to be out for possibly the season with what we’re now calling a questionable cut to the ankle by Matt Cooke. Considering the wins and losses for the week, this really puts a damper on things, and possibly a chance at competing for the playoffs - Canes 3 @ Sens 2 OTL- Jets 1 @ Sens 0- Slugs 0 @ Sens 2- Sens...

Originally Aired:  February 6, 2013  The Call-ups are missing their top line host Pan, so like the Senators we bring in Puddleduck from our farm system to fill in.   You might want to check the math, because it may or may not be his strong point.  We recap:  - Game 8: Sens @ Canes (loss) - Game 9: Sens @ Habs (loss) - Game 10: Sabres @ Sens (win)  Topics of attention include Corvo, the no-goal in...

Originally Aired: February 1, 2013  And we’re back!  Now we’re missing our fist line center with Spezza’s injuries, but that’s OK because WE GOT E-MAIL!!! And Z-Bad.  More great results with 5 out of a possible 6 games: - Penguins 2 – Sens 1 (Shout Out)- Capitals 2 – Sens 3- Canadiens 1 – Sens 5 After talking about the potential replacements or fill ins on the top line, we review how great some pl...

Originally Aired: January 26, 2013 The boys head down to Florida for a couple games after opening up SBP.  It’s cold out in Ottawa, so Canuck decides to go down with them. - Panthers 0 @ Sens 4 - Sens 3 @ Panthers 1 - Sens 4 @ Lightning 6 Anderson proves himself as the starter and the offense fires on all cylinders.  It’s easy to say that the team looks good overall, but Bishop struggled in his fi...

Originally Aired: January 19, 2013 No better way to start an NHL season than with a win right?  Welcome back NHL!  Our collective excitment for the return of Ottawa Senators hockey made us jump to the airwaves following the Sens 4-1 win over the Jets.

Originally Aired: October 10, 2012 Welcome back!  There’s still not much new in regards to the progress of CBA talks, so we do a little house cleaning and speak to a couple Call-ups!  Trying to survive with the lack of NHL hockey, we look at some of the alternatives by looking at the Sens abroad as well as the B-Sens and the CHL.  Our guest Dan gives us a taste of what living with a bunch of Canuc...

Originally Aired: September 20, 2012 WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE SENS CALL-UPS……ok, we really can’t keep that up.  Well, well, what’s to say about what’s going on in the NHL?  In one word NOTHING!  In episode 3, we talk about what we have heard about the CBA negotiations (or lack there of) and look at the teams that have lost money and what, in our humble opinions, needs to be done to change that and...
