24-25 Ottawa Senators Preview with Nick Martin of The Action Network | The Puck Portfolio
๐ In today’s episode, Andy MacNeil previews the Ottawa Senators for the upcoming 2024-25 NHL season with special guest Nick Martin from The Action Network.
๐ Andy and Nick are divided on the Sens as they debate Ottawa’s playoff aspirations for the upcoming season.
โ Can players like Brady Tkachuk, Tim Stรผtzle and Thomas Chabot find another gear or have we seen their ceilings? How does Nick Jensen fit in with the team and where does he differ from Jakob Chychrun? Can Linus Ullmark thrive outside of the Bruins system?

Ottawa can't be as bad as previous years with Goaltending. When 20+ games you let in a goal for the first 3 shots, you are shooting yourself in the foot. Chychrun was horrendous on D, brought some points but still ended up with a -30.
Don't agree on the Ullmark remark, saying Boston didnt need Ullmark as the opposite. Ullmark stats in Buffalo was just as good .905 was is worst season in Buffalo. Thats still better whats the tandem of last year gave.
Just like every team in the league, injuries dictates a lot. If Norris can play a full season that could change a lot.
Sens need to avoid injuries, and need Ulmark to be Ulmark, and they'll be fine. They don't have the depth to overcome multiple injuries, especially on D
Hot take Timmy gets over 100 points this year injury hurt hit point totals last year
Stutzle had 39 goals in 2022-2023. He's going back over 30 this year guaranteed. If Ullmark can give average or above-average goaltending (.905%+), they will grab a playoff spot this year, mark my words. The Sens had the worst goaltending in the NHL last year, combined with Pinto's suspension and Norris' injury, they didn't do very well. Cheers
This Sens teams feels different, i have them at 94 points..WC2
