There are no remaining Senators from the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoff run now. Brandon Piller and Ross Levitan give you our live reaction to the breaking news of Bobby Ryan being placed on waivers for the purpose of a buy out. We had to re-record the episode as the news dropped right after we finished. We try to make sense of why they would do this now. Is it simply another financial decision to cut pay roll, was it a hockey move to open up roster spots for younger players or was this just clearing more cap space for bigger things to come? We also have a great chat with TSN 1200's host Ian Mendes. He tells us about who he thinks should be captain, how they should fill their veteran void and some creative ways they made content for a daily radio show without sports for months. The SensCentral Final Draft Rankings continue with #35: Topi Niemela, #34: William Wallinder, #33: Vasili Ponomaryov and #32: Daniel Torgersson. Support us by supporting our sponsors.
