[Silvercup Returns]

OK, how many more "Sens" renames do we need? The Byward Market has temporarily renamed to Sens Square for the playoffs.

It was on CTV Ottawa news.

Market is better for it than Elgin anyway IMO

 

[Do Make Say Think]

I work in the Market so that's cool

 

[Dick Whitman]

Who cares how many? Let's have some fun for once.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

I think that's a great idea. Wish I was in Ottawa for this.

 

[StefanW]

I think it is cool. Great to see the city getting behind the team.

Name sounds much better than Sens Mile, which we also stole from Calgary.

Sens Mile taken from Red Mile.

Sens square taken from Leafs square?

Sens Mile taken from Red Mile.

Didn't know there was a Leafs Square

Maybe we should call it Red Square

Was this approved by the zoning ordinance board? I will not recognize it as such until then. You can't just go renaming things all willy nilly that's how anarchy occurs.

Eh. It was Jurassic Park first if I remember right. Leafs stole that from the Raptors. And the Raptors definitely make more use of it lately.

City hall hasn't recognized it yet but the business owners don't care. I'm going to check out Sens House for the first time tomorrow

next, west wellington becomes sens wellington.
new edinburgh becomes new sensinburgh
little italy becomes pageau italy
dirty hull is still dirty hull.

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

This is cool. I was planning to be on Sens Mile tomorrow, now I have to rethink my options.

Brought to you by the Byward Market Barkeepers Association!

I'm sticking to Senstenburg

 

[Senateurs]

it,s about time. You wouldn't know it's the downtown area of an NHL city when walking in the market.

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Not sure where Im going to watch the game tomorrow now. Was thinking Sens House

This. As far as I'm concerned unless the request goes through proper channels CTV has no business making such an announcement and it does nothing more than discredit their sources.

Bytown business owners declared it, city hall did not.

If I get downtown around six will there still be seats available at places like sens house?

God no. Sens house fills up days in advance of regular season games, with a few walk in places gone by like 5 or 6. Playoffs it will be packed.

Reserve.

 

[Sun God Nika]

I wanna go to the Senate tomorrow for the game (alone) is it cool if I just walk in their 15 mins before puck drop or would I be screwed?

No chance.

If you want to watch the game at a bar or restaurant, you're going to need a reservation or friends who go at 4 to grab a table.

Sens fever has gripped the nation....'s capital.
