Sens Callups - Ottawa Senators Podcast

Pan and Canuck watch the Sens get hammered 5-2 in Denver.  I thought Colorado was about getting high not getting hammered (Yeaaaaaaah!)We record right after the game, so it's low energy disappointment.  But we recap the day.  Sorry we missed that cold snap in Ottawa.  No, we're not sorry.
