Fav Sens moment/how I became a fan: I really loved the last year's playoffs, I cant really pinpoint any moments, well there is one this will sound retarded but I loved sens/kings brawl and how the guys stepped up for each other it was one of the first times I had seen our boys go to war like that, and how Roy dropped the gloves even though three guys were coming at him. Classic.
I became a fan when we got a franchise, my dad took me to a game against philadelphia and we won 3-1 (I think) he got me a mini-stick with inaugural season written on it and I won the 1$ bet I had made with my dad that the sens would win. Hey 1$ was a lot of cash for a 7-8 YO back then.
Origin of screen name: Inside joke from Highschool, (Louis-Riel)
Well I'll be damned. I've had a sneaking suspicion that this was you for some time, especially after you mentioned that you went to LR in another thread, but what are the chances. Very surprising. Anyways, how are you doing chief? I haven't seen you since last Christmas.. I hope R, M, Z and A are doing well too. (I think the girlfriend was A..)
Oh, if you're wondering who I am, check the first page of this thread..

I already checked it out, and once I saw your name I started thinking it was you. Where did the "sneaking suspicion" come from?
Everyone is doing pretty good, but my GF is an L. So are you going to be there this christmas? I heard you moved.

Fav Sens moment/how I became a fan: Chicago had traded away my favorite players. I became a fan at the begining of the 95-96 season. Went through the 3 coaches and 2 GM's that year.

Fav Sens moment/how I became a fan:
I moved to Ottawa for school (Carleton U) in 1995, and had been into the Sens before, but being in Ottawa made me even more of a fan. I have been hooked ever since.
Best moment for me was when they made the playoffs the first time. I got to go to a game against Buffalo that year, and Alfie scored in OT to make it 1-0 Sens. Best memory of a sens game...the arena went nuts...great time.

Well, this wont help but I'm about to leave to go see it. I'll post how it was. Just to rub it in a bit.
So, it was a great concert and The Futureheads were just amazing. Funny too because when they talked to each other, no one had a clue what they were saying. But they were by far the craziest band and the most intense. Hot Hot Heat were good even though I didnt know all their songs and Louis XIV was good too, he looks like Ozzy Osbourne which was funny. Hmm what else could I mention? Well the crowd was really young, I mean I'm 18(only 4 months to go for 19, and i'm getting impatient) but these kids were really young and the fans of Hot Hot Heat are really short.
Music: Hip, U2, Tom Petty, Springsteen, Blue Rodeo
Hobbies: Nothing special
Fav food: Chicken Parm, Fish and Chips, anything involving pesto
Fav Sens moment:
- Alfredsson pounding Tucker into the boards in the 2002 playoffs, game 5 (anyone have a good pic of this?)
- Alfie's hat trick in 1998 vs. NJD in Game 4 (my first live Sens playoff game)
- Phillips against Brodeur in 2003 (listening on the radio in Hamilton, sadly)
- Tucker rushing the bench against Neil.
Worst Sens moment:
- that choke job in Game 6 vs the Leafs in 2002, thanks to Persson's cross-check on Domi
- Rachunek pinching to give up that Jeff Friesen goal in Game 6 vs. NJD
- Lalime vs. Leafs, 1st period of Game 7, 2004
