  • Simmer’s back!

    Was so happy to hear of the launch of this podcast and chose the Ian and LeeVer episode to start. Love Simmer’s broadcasting style and hearing the three of you was like putting on your favourite sweater and sitting in front of the fireplace. Hope the trio will be a semi regular event.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Sens Spotlight #182 | Nobody Predicted That, But The Sens Are On top Of The Division
Q: St. Louis is coming into town. They've kind of been like this. What do you like about their team?
Mercier says St. Louis has considerable offensive depth across its first three lines, but its young defense and goaltending remain less settled. He says Ottawa must disrupt the Blues' time and space.
Sens Spotlight #182 | Nobody Predicted That, But The Sens Are On top Of The Division
Q: Did you believe when the season started after six games, Ottawa would be in first place in the Atlantic division?
Mercier says he did not expect Ottawa to lead the division, although he thought the team could contend near the top. He credits its confidence, strong goaltending, and ability to win despite injuries and doubts about the roster.
Sens Spotlight #183 | Reality Check For The Sens Last Night! Here's What We Learned
Q: So what are they going to do right now to get Ayrson to be able to overcome his mental issues while he's between the pipes?
Mercier says Ersson needs to improve his game understanding and mental toughness, while goalie coach Justin Peters works with him. Ersson must learn to recover quickly after mistakes and become a consistent backup.
Sens Spotlight #183 | Reality Check For The Sens Last Night! Here's What We Learned
Q: What in your eyes right now do they need to do to get this power play jumpstarted?
Mercier says Ottawa needs sharper passing and better synchronization, should make penalty killers and goalies move, and must simplify by putting pucks on net.
Sens Spotlight #185 | The Sens Lose Chabot & the Game Here's What Happened Last Night
Q: Have they come up with any plan in terms of how they want to battle through this?
Mercier says the media plan is not known yet, but he expects Ottawa to face sustained attention around Brady Tkachuk's return and the upcoming games. McGuire recommends limiting access to a few players and scheduled podium availability.
