We’ve had four (!) whole games’ worth of Ottawa Senators hockey since the last edition of Five Thoughts. With such a rich vein of content to mine from, you’ll have to forgive the length of some of these thoughts. At long last, we have much to reflect upon:

The question of whether or not Tkachuk or Thomas Chabot should be the next captain of the Ottawa Senators has been a favourite parlour game of the fanbase and local media for the last 12+ months. Both have reasonable claims to the title, and each person’s personal preference probably says more about them than it does the leadership qualities of either young star; the Sens would be in good hands with either at the helm in this writer’s opinion.
