-__ Official Ottawa Senators Fan Thread __- - Topic

The Ottawa Senators are making plans to host an outdoor National Hockey League game to coincide with celebrations for Canada’s 150th anniversary in 2017, according to those familiar with the tourism industry’s plans for the year’s events

The idea is to have the Senators face off against the Montreal Canadiens, according to Ottawa Marriott general manager Daniel Laliberté, a member of the committee helping plan the city’s offerings for 2017.

That would replicate the first game played 100 years earlier in December 1917 under the banner of a brand new organization formed a month earlier – the National Hockey League

“There are hopes that Ottawa would also host the Grey Cup that same year,”

Happy birthday Alfie!!! He's 40 today.

Such a shame. We got robbed of getting to see him for another year, hopefully he comes back once more.
