This feeling around the Senators is...different.

It’s been a really long time since I have felt excited about being able to go deep in the playoffs. Even at many points during this season, that seemed like a bit of a pipe-dream. But the thing is, they have a chance.

Do I think they are the best team in the league? No, but they are up 1-0 in the second round, and have a greater than 50% chance to move onto the Conference Finals. That’s not a bad spot to be in. What’s crazy about where Ottawa sits right now is that they haven’t been leading a series in the second round (or later) since 2007.
