Sens Underground - Episode 20

Hey there Sens Fans...thank God, the Olympic break is over and we're heading fast and furious down the stretch and towards the March 9 trade deadline. Congratulations to Team Sweden for winning Gold, they had a great team with a lot of depth.

Slightly different format this week. As we recap the team Canada games instead of the Sens...

Canada 7 Italy 2
Canada 5 Germany 1
Switzerland 2 Canada 0 ugh!
Finland 2 Canada 0
Canada 3 Czech Republic 2

Quarter Finals
Russia 2 Canada 0

We discuss in depth what the hell went wrong, was it players, coaches, Gretzky, ice size, speed of the skaters...how can we live with this poor performance and what can we do about it!

In "Behind The Jock" we ponder the Sens home run stretch, life without Dominic Hasek and the future return of Martin Havlat. We also discuss possible trades Ottawa might make and the potential impact on the team as well as new NHL rules that come into effect today. And finally, we have a clip of McGrattan on OTR going toe-to-toe with John Nunziata. As always, we read our listener email from around the world plus our listener-favourite segments.

All right folks!!! Grab yourself a "snort" and come along for the ride!!!!

A Foot In The Crease - Episode 27

For week 27 of A Foot In The Crease, we make the transistion back from the Olympics to the restart of the NHL season. We wrap up the Olympic Hockey Tournament including each of Team Canada's games as well as touch on the bronze medal game between Russia and the Czech Republic and the gold medal game between Sweden and Finland.

We are also joined by our injury correspondant, Poste, who discusses just what is facing Dominik Hasek in the way of injuries. Who's Hot, Who's Not discusses some strong and some unlucky performances from the Olympics. We feature our fourth Defining Moment in Leaf History, this week detailing the impact of the acquistion of Doug Gilmour. Rigamarole looks at whether Olympic participation for NHL players is perhaps too much of a physical ordeal for them to deal with.

Sens Underground - Episode 19 (The Broadway's Show)

We can't express how much fun doing the live podcast and we want to thank all the folks who came up to join us and the great staff at Broadways.

There were a ton of kids there last night and I think we can safely say we've scarred a few innocent little minds. And really, what more can we hope for?!

Amidst all the silliness, we did do a show and we covered all the usual topics:

A 5-1 loss to the Rangers
A 2-1 loss to the Thrashers
And a 3-2 win over the Flyers

Plus we touched on the Olympics and of course the gambling scandal rocking the NHL. Mac Bitch was nice enough to drop by and of course we had our regular segments. Check out the scrapbook page on the website to see some pictures and videos of the proceedings.

A Foot In The Crease - Episode 25

We have a jam-packed show for everyone this week. Starting out we recap the three Leaf games of the last week. The Defining Moment in Leaf History features Daryl Sittler's 10 point game. In the Redline Report we speak with our medical correspondent, Poste, about Carlo Colaicovo's concussion. We wrap up other injuries on the Leafs' lineup and talk about the distinct lack of trades around the league. We also touch on the gambling scandal, Operation Slapshot, and the controversy surrounding it. Rigmarole looks further at this by coming to the defense of Wayne Gretzky.

This week we have our first segment of Olympic coverage including talk about Loonies in the ice, defense problems on Team Canada and the women's thrashing of the Italian team.

The songs featured in this episode from the Podsafe Music Network include "Map Your Face" by Noblesse, "A Touch of Space" by Bob Hughes, "Letting Go" by Naked Underneath, and "Alpha" by Noam Weinstein.

Sens Underground - Episode 17

Episode 17. The "Cuban Episode"

Ola! I'm back from Cuba and one thing I can tell you: when a guy in a hot-tub starts talking about his open lifestyle, it's time to get out and go cigar shopping. I missed a ton of good hockey but my first game back and the Sens crap the bed.

Only 2 games to recap this week:
Ottawa 3 Montreal 0
Boston 5 Ottawa 0

There was a lot that happened this week and we talk about it in our new fan favourite "Behind the Jock". The topics this week include:
The Doug Weight trade, Jovonoski and the Olympic team, the skills competition, and the controversy surrounding Ray Emery.

A reminder of our upcoming show at Broadway's Orleans Blvd in Orleans on February 11. We'll have a couple of tickets on hand to giveaway for an upcoming Sens game, so bring your Leaf hatred...you'll hear why on the show.

And as usual our fan favourites, and listener e-mail. Keep the e-mails coming. We're big all over the world now...
