Senators Brady Tkachuk is Sick and Tired of Getting Embarrassed
It was another tough night at the office for the Ottawa Senators as the struggling hockey team got pounded 7-1 by the Edmonton Oilers. Another blow out has tested the Sens players and if you ask Brady Tkachuk he'll admit it's starting to wear on the team and he's embarrassed by their performances.
Brady Tkachuk didn’t mince words when he was asked about tonight’s 7-1 loss.

“This can’t keep happening....to get blown out like that is infuriating. It’s absolutely embarrassing.”
The Sens latest loss was due in part to the Leon Draisaitl putting on a five-point clinic. Ottawa had no answer for the German star and it was a cake-walk for the Oil.
Ottawa currently sits 9-19-1 record, good for last in the North division and 29th in the league only ahead of the Detroit Red Wings and Buffalo Sabres.
The team's horrible start shouldn't be pointed at Tkachuk or his line-mates, it comes down to goaltending. The Sens goalies hold the worst save % combined in the league and as of right now, Matt Murray's contract is looking like a terrible decision for the franchise.
Expect to see a few trades as we approach the April 12th deadline from the Senators as while they certainly won't be buying, you can count on them selling.
