saved by a home win against Vancouver, but there’s still a lot of
shuffling around - now more so on the defence.

Pan goes through a lot of math in creating his own stats and looking at
an implementation of Kardwick (Takeaway/Giveaway) and we discuss the D
pairings & the potential of a rumoured trade of Matt
Duchene.  "What grinds my gears" comes back with two listener
contributions, so make sure that you get yours in! 

The Sens continue on not exactly going on any type of streaks, yet can lose to the Coyotes and beat the Habs.  Who knows with this team? Game 7: Sens vs Devils 5-4 SOLGame 8: Senators vs Coyotes 4-1LGame 9: Senators vs Flames 5-4 SOWGame 10: Senators @ Red Wings 3-1WGame 11: Senators vs Red Wings 5-3LGame 12: Senators @ Habs 2-1 OTW The team has been through a series of injuries & a suspension, but is still currently 2nd in the division. The Callups as always got through what’s going on with the team and around the league and play a couple more segments for what grinds our gears. 

The season starts and we get a couple games in.  There’s a bit of panic in the air, but the 3 of us aren’t concerned at all.  No game recaps, but we talk about the following games in brief:Game 1: Sens @ Slugs 3-2 WGame 2: Sens @ Leafs 5-4 SOWGame 3: Sens vs Habs 3-1 LGame 4: Sens @ CBJ 7-3 WGame 5: Sens @ Penguins 2-0 LGame 6: Sens vs Predators 4-3 SOLA couple player thoughts and talk around the league.  Kardinal uses reverse psychology to tell us what he wants for Christmas from the NHL online shop, and we play a couple games in regards to personal goal songs and “What Grinds My Gears”.  If you have a “Grinds My Gears” and want to play along, share your story with us through the Versature Waiver Wire toll-free 1-844-SCU-6565.

It’s the end of camp and there isn’t anything too surprising outside of Clarke MacArthur gracefully giving up his roster spot for the mean time.  In order to get ready for the home opener, we are joined by Public Address Announcer, Stuntman Stu Schwartz (@StuntmanStu), Senators DJ, Alex Marchand (@senatorsdj), Sales Manager Dan Julien (@deejayyou) and In-Game Host Lauren Fine (@promolaur).  Kardinal gets us to play an expansion draft game, we look at the PTO list, talk about 3 on 3 and the coach’s challenge.  It may be a bit of time until we’re able to get together again, but you can always keep in touch and interact via our forums at www.senscallups.com, twitter @senscallups, Facebook, phone toll-free 1-844-SCU-6565, or e-mail [email protected] you have any inquiries for ticket packages, feel free to contact Dan via Twitter, LinkedIn or e-mail at [email protected]

We get back together for the start of our fourth season.  Similar to the Sens, our lineup is pretty much set for the year - except we’ll hopefully have more guests this year.

On Sunday August 16, 2015 the 2nd annual Sens Summer Sens Fest was held.  Part of the fest included a panel of bloggers and podcasters as follows:Host:  Owen (@SensNation) representing Sens Nation@SensChirp representing Sens ChirpPan (@PanofSCU) representing Sens CallupsJoe (@McLlwainsWorld) representing Radek Bonk's MulletCallum (@CallumFraswer) and Adnan (@sens_adnan) representing Silver Seven SensKevin (@BringBackLee) representing Sens Nation & Radek Bonk's MulletFull details can be found here: http://senssummerfanfest.weebly.com/panel.htmlBig thank you to Kevin Lee for organizing this event!

It’s bright and sunny out, so we head back to the basement and record our summer episode.
We look at the guys that moved out from the roster, briefly touch on the draft picks and the prospect camp.
There’s been a lot of movement around the league - and we get WAY too Toronto centric, but hey - IT’S FREE!
See you in a couple months!

Well, the Sens ended up getting screwed in game 6 but most fans are
commenting on all the positives.  We decide to do the same and what
better way to do that than bring Ian Mendes from TSN 1200 on to
summarize the season.  We regroup after the series loss against
Montreal, look at what the roster is shaping up to and really just end
all smiles.  We’ll be back in July after free agency and the draft.  We
hope that you all have a safe and wonderful summer and continue to touch
base in the forums, on twitter and via e-mail.  Thanks for listening!

Sens win on home ice and stop the sweep! Good enough reason to get on the airwaves!  We get back from the game and get to enjoy our first win of the series. We couldn't make it to the studio, so you'll have to suffer through shoddy internet connection (Dammit Pan!).We’re looking forward to Friday’s game!
