February 20, 2024 S5 E16: Fortifying the Crease: How can the Ottawa Senators fix their goaltending carousel?
On this week's episode of The Senstennial Podcast, we discuss Ottawa's goaltending issues, and whether the Sens should consider buying out Joonas Korpisalo this summer, or hope that he can turn things around for next season. We also discuss what happens with Anton Forsberg once his contract expires, and who might be some realistic goaltending targets that the Sens pursue in either 2024 or 2025. We compare the current iteration of the Senators with teams who had similar issues, and debate the shifting of Ottawa's playoff "window." Finally, we take a look at some of the issues regarding the play of Josh Norris, Drake Batherson, and Brady Tkachuk, and what we expect to see from them going forward.

February 13, 2024 S5 E15: Ridly Greig: The Slapshot Heard Around the World
On this week's episode of The Senstennial Podcast, we discuss the controversy surrounding Ridly Greig's empty net slapshot goal, and the Morgan Reilly's crosscheck response. We touch on whether the retaliation was warranted, and whether the public responses to the incident from a number of media personalities are an indication of some of the systemic issues rooted in hockey culture. We also discuss some of the smaller stories surrounding the Ottawa Senators, such as Zack MacEwen being placed on waivers, Anton Forsberg's return from LTIR, and Jake Sanderson's ongoing IR status.
