Marc Methot Already Dying of Boredom

by SensForLife11

Having recently been eliminated from the Stanley Cup Playoffs, Marc Methot has found out (like the rest of us) how hard it is to fill up all those extra hours in a day without hockey.

You may remember the Marc Methot GIF immediately after the Sens clinched a playoff position. Well he may have one upped himself with this one!

Who Should Bryan Murray Target Via Trade?

by Chet Sellers


It’s no secret Bryan Murray is looking to upgrade the Senators offense over the off-season.  But with free agent pickings looking relatively weak, who are the players Murray should pursue via trade, and what will it take to land them? I’ve taken a look around the league and I think I have the answers. Let’s find out what they are!

An inside look at items left behind at Ottawa Senators locker clean out day

by Radek Bonk's Mullet


With the team holding their locker clean out day on Monday, I able to sneak in to the room while the players were distracted by the media. I was able to sneak a peak at the items left behind by the players in their respective lockers. The following is a comprehensive list of what I found.

Summer with the Senators

by Chet Sellers


One of the great things about starting a blog is that you’re pretty much an accredited member of the media right away, with all the status, access, and sodium intake of the traditional outlets. So when the Senators organization called and asked if I was interested in attending locker clean-out day, my answer was an unqualified yes. And as a fresh voice in the staid world of hockey journalism, I intended to ask the bold question others wouldn’t, namely, “what are you doing this summer?”

Round 2 Game 4 Highlights

by SensForLife11


Here are your GIF highlights from Round 2 Game 4... 

#freealfredsson

by Chet Sellers


Daniel Alfredsson has been taken to task for his comments following game 4, where he suggested the Senators have little chance to rebound from a 3-1 deficit against the Pittsburgh Penguins.  But is that fair? Let’s find out!

CAPITAL MANES: Part 2 - My experience as a special guest at game 4

by Radek Bonk's Mullet


Unlike Cory Conacher and Guillaume Latendresse, I was lucky enough to be in attentance for game 4 in Ottawa. Thanks to the success of the Sens Money on the Board campaign, I was invited by the Sens Foundation as a special guest to the game.


Not included in my last post was my interview with CBC. Apparently it was a slow news day. Read up on the rest of adventures after the break.

Bonk's Mullet and Sens Nation present: #MulletNation - A game 5 meet-up for Sens fans

by Bonk's Mullet


Attention Ottawa Senators fans:

This Friday, come watch game 5 with me, @SensNation, and others. This event is partially to raise funds for the Sens Money on the Board campaign, but mostly just to scream at the television together, with or without pants.

Stay Classy Sens Fans

by SensForLife11


Unfortunately in sports, blowout losses in the playoffs can bring the worst out in the home crowd. Fans of the opposition can find themselves the target of angry and potentially drunk home fans. I witnessed this myself with the Sens finding themselves on the wrong side of a 7-3 scoreboard.

CAPITAL MANES: Live Blog of Bonk's Mullet's return to Ottawa

Join me as I tread unknown waters: from the airport, to TV interviews, to behind the scenes action at the game.

Thanks to @Brochenski (a must-follow) for that headline. I will be updating this blog throughout the day. Be sure to check back frequently.

A Thank You Letter to Sens Fans: The Chronicles of Mullet


by Bonk's Mullet


I couldn't be more proud to announce that the pledges to Sens Money on the Board have eclipsed $10,000. This post is here to offer a huge, heartfelt thanks to everyone who has helped out in any way. I'll also be keeping a live blog of my many adventures throughout the day at bonksmullet.com, so be sure to check that out. I've cross-posted this on silversevensens.com to be sure everyone sees my thank you.

Somebody pinch me.

My life has made anything but sense in the last few months. I thought moving to Philadelphia would loosen my ties to Ottawa, but as it turns out, it's done anything but that. About six weeks ago, I started writing for silversevensens.com. My first article was featured on Sportsnet's website. The crew at S7 told me I'd never be able to follow that up. I had to agree with them.

Which Sens Forwards Are Best at Driving Possession During The Playoffs

By SensForLife11


Thanks to Behind The Net and Stats.HockeyAnalysis, two advanced statistics websites, we can now take a closer look at players' performances game to game without using traditional stats. One of the most commonly used advanced stats is Corsi, which you can essentially call shot differential +/-. It takes into account any shots (including missed and blocked) directed towards the net. I've compiled the CF% of the Senators forwards for each game in the playoffs thus far and placed them in a chart. To keep things clean I've divided them into two groups consisting of the top 6 and bottom 6 forwards.

A Brief History of Ottawa Senators Goaltenders

By Chet Sellers


Following a 49-save performance in Game 3, and a season in which he’s put the team on his back nearly every time he’s taken the ice (.941 sv%, 1.69 GAA regular season; .940, 2.17 in the playoffs), it’s fair to ask the question – is Craig Anderson the best Senators goalie ever? Let’s find out!

Bonk's Mullet's Radio Debut: Interview with CBC All in a Day

by Bonk's Mullet


Right before game 2 in Pittsburgh, I huddled into a corner of the Consol Energy Center to have a chat with CBC's Alan Neal. The audio is below. This was my first ever live radio interview, but I think I made a decent debut. I'll let you determine if it's Pageau-like or not.

I'll also be on both CTV and CBC Ottawa's news broadcasts before game 4, so be sure to watch for that.  Enjoy!

Colin Greening - Tough!

By Chet Sellers


Colin Greening, with three goals in three games, has been the Senators’ best forward in their second-round series with Pittsburgh. His toughness was also on full display last night, as he scored the game winning goal in double-overtime with blood and chunks of fiberglass falling out of his cheek like balls in a pachinko machine.

But how much do you really know about the toughness of playoff hero Colin Greening? Let’s find out! And remember, these are all REAL facts – none of that Chuck Norris BS!

Hey guys, it's Chet

The international blogging debut of Twitter enigma Chet Sellers


THE PHONE RANG. How he got the number I’ll never know.

“Chet, I need your help extending my personal brand.” He sounded like he’d been awake for days.

“Your real one, or your online one?”

“I don’t even know the difference any more. This must be how Lady Gaga feels.”

 “Of course.”

“I’ve taken the irreversible step of starting a blog, Chet. It’s like Twitter, but a lot longer, and you have to convince people on Twitter to open a new tab to read it.”

“I’m in, but only if I can work for free.”

“I insist on it, Chet. This vanilla Stoli doesn’t buy itself.”

Introducing the Bonk's Mullet Dream Team: Kevin Lee and Chet Sellers

by Bonk's Mullet


Welcome our newest writers to the blog

It's been an exciting week. First, I was offered to be flown to Ottawa for game 4 for my work with Sens Money on the Board. Second came the launch of bonksmullet.com. After attending the game in Pittsburgh yesterday, I couldn't have imagined I'd have any more news to come out this week. 

Today, in advance of game 3 I'm proud to announce the addition of two Twitter superstars to the blog. Introducing: Kevin Lee and Chet Sellers. Also be sure to check out Chet's first article.

Pittsbonk: A photo diary of game 2 in Pittsburgh

by Bonk's Mullet


On Friday (and Saturday because adult beverages came between me and my blog on Friday night) I kept a live blog of the day's events as I traveled from Philly to Pittsburgh for game 2 of the Sens-Pens series. If you missed it, here's the blog.

Today I thought I'd share with you the visuals of the game. I warn you that some images may be shocking to some viewers, as I do not actually have a mullet, and at no point am I pantsless. I apologize for this.

Pittsbonk: A live blog of my journey to game 2.

by Bonk's Mullet


Hey sports fans. Welcome to my new site. I apologize that the site currently is about as stylish as a mullet, but I promise I didn't mean to make the rest of the internet look bad on purpose.

Join me today on my journey to Pittsburgh for game 2.

BonksMullet.com - Under Construction

Well hello there sports fans. You have found your way to the best Sens blog run by a novelty haircut on the whole internet. Pat yourself on the back for that. I apologize that the site is pretty ugly at this point. I'm working on that. I would say I'm working out the kinks, but without the kinks, there would be nothing left. Hence this warning sign:
