The Ottawa Senators are a professional ice hockey team based in Ottawa, Ontario. They are members of the Atlantic Division of the Eastern Conference in the National Hockey League (NHL). The team was founded in 1992, and began play in the 1992–93 NHL season.

Team History

The original Ottawa Senators were founded in 1883 and were one of the most successful teams in the early days of hockey, winning 11 Stanley Cups. However, the team folded in 1934 due to financial difficulties. The modern Ottawa Senators were founded in 1992, bringing NHL hockey back to Ottawa after a 58-year absence.

Early Years

The early years of the modern Senators were challenging, as the team struggled to compete with the established NHL franchises. However, the team gradually improved, and in 1997, they made the playoffs for the first time.

The Pizza Line Era

In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the Senators became one of the top teams in the NHL, led by players such as Alexei Yashin, Daniel Alfredsson, and Jacques Martin. This era was known as the "Pizza Line" era, named after a popular promotion where fans could get a free pizza if the Senators scored five or more goals in a game.

Modern Era

In recent years, the Senators have gone through a rebuilding phase, focusing on developing young talent. The team has a core of promising young players, including Brady Tkachuk, Tim Stützle and Jake Sanderson.
