Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: December 2009
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 7, 2009. It gives me no pleasure to announce that Sens Army Blog is going on hiatus until further notice. The reasons for this announcement are entirely personal, but not private (so read on). Maintaining a blog at a high level and being an opinion leader in any online forum is no easy task, and requires much time and dedication. Recently, I have had neither the time nor the interest required to maintain this blog at a high level. The Wedge and the Microscope. I have met (either online o...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: October 2009
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 30, 2009. What's up with the Sens? They're missing their best players. What is up with the Sens lately? I guess it doesn't matter how many goals Jason Spezza. Contributes, they need him on the ice to produce offence at all. Honestly. It must be part of the cable package for people who can't stand to miss an all-Texas NBA game. Go Spurs. Sorry, it just sucks that I missed a Sens win a couple days ago, and a Raptors game tonight. Blerg! Here's my prediction for the Sens game on Saturday:.

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: September 2009
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 30, 2009. Lee and Zubov might be. Although Pletch won't be posting anymore (and thank you for your service, P) the blog continues onward toward the opening night. Did I mention we're kind of making a big deal of it? See obvious banner above). You can sign up for a reminder on the left-hand sidebar. In Ottawa Senators news: I'm rather surprised that Erik Karlsson. Has, so far, beaten out Brian Lee. And the other coaches must really like what they see from Special K. I could see how th...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: Season rests on shoulders of Brian Elliott, not Leclaire
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2010/10/season-rests-on-shoulders-of-brian.html
Tuesday, October 5, 2010. Season rests on shoulders of Brian Elliott, not Leclaire. I've been keeping an eye on a few different preseason rankings, and many of them seem to reference that Pascal Leclaire. Needs to have some sort of bounce-back season in order for the Senators to be successful. I would like to politely disagree with this premise. I mean other goalie, Brian Elliott. Posted by Ben Myers. Mike Fisher Sportsnet Ad: Awesome. Leclaire has made himself expendable. Season rests on shoulders of Br...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: November 2009
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Monday, November 30, 2009. Feeling snarky and sharky. I'm sorry to prediction this one guys, but the Sharks are the best team in the NHL right now. Sharks 5 - Senators 1. Who's going to be staying up late to watch the game? I'll just be catching the highlights. Got to wake up early and go to work. So sue me. Posted by Ben Myers. Sunday, November 29, 2009. Special K is here to stay! Giving K-Mart (more nicknames? What about our former golden boy? Well, he has fallen down the depth chart for sure, but he's...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: Let's do away with (the idea of) home ice advantage
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2010/05/lets-do-away-with-idea-of-home-ice.html
Wednesday, May 19, 2010. Let's do away with (the idea of) home ice advantage. You want a home ice advantage? Play better on home ice! I'm a big fan of TSN's Sunday morning opinion show The Reporters. But I'm a bigger fan of the podcast version. Opinions and information without having to look at Steve Simmons' ugly mug? They did a little bonus episode last Sunday discussing the apparent lack of advantage for NHL teams that play at home and I couldn't help but take issue with their way of thinking. Over-an...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: July 2009
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 23, 2009. Battle of the comments - Summer 2009! This blog has some great regular commentors who prove that intelligent discussions can be held on a sports blog. The post from a few days ago provoked some great debate, so I thought I would give it the front-page treatment for those that don't normally read the comments:. This optimistic one from. But there's something missing - how did such a terrible team make it to the finals? There haven't been that many personnel changes. For some reaso...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: Pascal "the Answer" Leclaire
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2009/03/pascal-answer-leclaire.html
Wednesday, March 4, 2009. Pascal "the Answer" Leclaire. Is he a #1 goaltender? I don't mind seeing Antoine Vermette go, the real question is whether Leclaire is the answer in net for the Senators. He's in the first year of an expensive three-year contract. Just learned on TSN that Leclaire won't even play for the rest of the season? The best goaltender Ottawa's had since they've entered the league." says Pierre McGuire. I did not see that one coming. When he's right, LeClaire is athletic, if not big in s...

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: Bill Guerin - the player the Sens have always needed
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2010/10/bill-guerin-player-sens-have-always.html
Monday, October 4, 2010. Bill Guerin - the player the Sens have always needed. I can recall a low point in the history of the Ottawa Senators when Daniel Alfredsson. Was on the chopping block. It was just after another loss to the godfersaken Leafs in the playoffs and Gary Roberts was putting the Sens to shame with an absolutely pestering style and rugged good looks. Even hard-core Sens fans wanted Alfredsson gone. He wasn't the leader we needed - and you know who was? Last year, including 21 goals.

Sens Army Blog - Ottawa Senators Blog: Wake me up when September ends
http://sensarmy.blogspot.com/2010/09/wake-me-up-when-september-ends.html
Saturday, September 25, 2010. Wake me up when September ends. I can't believe the fans in Montreal. This post isn't really about them, but it has to be said: Booing your still-young and recently ordained #1 goalie in a preseason game isn't just a bit of overkill, it's shooting a butterfly with a machine gun. Wayne Scanlan does an excellent job of putting this pre-season insanity. In its place in today's Ottawa Citizen. Dodging the hype in the Nation's Capital hasn't been too difficult. As the song goes.
