THE BATTLE OF ONTARIO RETURNS! ft. The Hockey News' Graeme Nichols

In today's special episode of The Senstennial Podcast, we welcome to the show Ottawa Senators writer for The Hockey News, Graeme Nichols. Graeme and Matt discuss Ottawa making the playoffs for the first time in eight years, the first Battle of Ontario in two decades, and what the X factors will be for either team. We also discuss Ottawa's strategy for getting more tickets into the hands of Sens fans, and the social media frenzy that those decisions caused. We discuss what players like Brady Tkachuk, Claude Giroux, Michael Amadio, Nick Cousins, and David Perron will bring to the playoffs, and the potential impact of Ottawa's 3rd line. Finally, we discuss Graeme's NHL Hockey Writer's Association ballot for player awards, and some of the tough choices he's having to make.

Special shout out to our guest, Graeme Nichols!
