  1. Lucky he lasted this long

    What is Gino talk about man power ? They have Tkachuk, Stutzle, Norris, Batherson, Tarasenko, Giroux, Chabot, Sanderson, Chychrun, they have more then enough talent

  2. Cheryl. Stop trying to verbally spread rule change on the contact and fighting rules in men’s hockey.
    Your a great speaker, knowledgeable of the sport.
    The energy you bring to the camera. Apply this with bringing in a (nhl) type league for the lady’s.

  3. Something had to be done! The Ottawa Senators have some really talented players but the current system or method of play is not working!

  4. Great the next coach they should hire for the Job is Nick Nurse. Now before you say he's from a different sport. I don't care as long as he leads the team to the championships.

  5. 29th place. if they can go on a bit of a run WHAT??? LMFAO you people are geniuses. if they went on a downright hot streak they could climb their way into 20th place maybe. good god this is why the NHL is so hard to get behind.

  6. Jacques Martin is a great hire. Now the sens can learn how to win games in 2001. I heard the sens are trying to bring Yashin back to play on the Power play too.

  7. The coach can’t tend the goal. And their D core isn’t playoff calibre either. This ain’t on DJ

  8. This team has been injury riddled all season and when you lose your #1 defenseman and a top 3 forward, it shows a lack of depth on this team, not poor coaching. Time will tell, but until the team is back to full strength wins are going to be hard to come by!!! I think DJ is a good coach and will be a NHL head coach again.Good luck DJ!

  9. RESULT'S orientated business….So the Sens did the Classic "got a new goalie (Korpisalo) and fired the Coach."….Always easier to do that first….BUT we keep hearing how the Sen's have an embarrassment of riches of young talent and are stacked at the forward position….So what's next?
    So WHO is next?
