This is the year the sens finally make the playoffs…..right?
Love those GM recap videos … keep up the good work!
Went through middle school and graduated high school now in college and the sens haven’t made the playoffs I’ll just stay as a sad sens for another season 😭
Great video! We need a GM video on Kevin Cheveldayoff and his tenure with the Winnipeg jets
My biggest issue with Dorion is he traded so much fucking draft capital in the last 2 seasons just to try and save his job. We lost so much picks for 1 year of Debrincat and 1 year of Chychrun.
Would love to see one on the PC era for the oilers.
