The Sens end up with half the points that they could have gotten this year with some lack luster play. That said, they’re still deep in the playoff race.  - Habs 5 @ Sens 4 (OT)  - Rangers 4 @ Sens 1  - Sens 2 @ Caps 0 #ThanksObama  Marc Methot missed a game and seems to be in a bit of hot water with the coaching staff, or is it an opportunity to showcase others? We get interactive with various tweets and e-mails, talk about the debacle in Vancouver/Calgary and other news around the league. Will this team make the playoffs? Will there be a trade soon? Will Phillips continue to point and random things?We’ll find out!

This week has been pretty much good news for the Sens (and for Pan’s new car). Lots of points earned and re-upping Bryan Murray for a couple more years and retaining and promoting Randy Lee and Pierre Dorion to retain the brain trust of the executive. - Sens 3 @ Avs 4 (OT)  - Sens 2 @ Preds 1  - Sens 3 @ Wild 0  Murray and Melnyk promise better results on the ice with better options. This means higher ticket prices but also much better experience at the arena and game.We read some e-mail and tweets and thanks go out to the donors. Lots of key games coming up as the race to the playoffs continues!

Good emails and we're ready for more!LET'S KEEP STREAKING!
