Back in the day at football games in the stupid section, we'd have a "BEAT THE TRAFFIC!" chant. If the person leaving looked at us, all 500 of us would bring out our keys and start jangling them.
Twas awesome.
I'd like to know the guy in charge of these decisions to try and artificially create atmosphere at SBP.
They should get some gladiators with whips to enforce the standing rule and read speeches off their shields.
Then Alanis shows up with a rousing rendition of "This land is your land"

Not a chant, but still an interesting idea...
I was in Berlin a few years ago and took in a handball game. The gameplay is quasi-similar to basketball, in terms of how the team sets up in the offensive zone, passes around, and ultimately somebody attempts a shot.
Anyway, one of the cool things that the crowd did was, when the home team was set up in the offensive zone and passing around, they'd all clap in unison, which must have sounded quite imposing for the visiting team. In the video below (this is the actually the game I attended, and shows the final minute or so), you'll hear it at the very beginning of the clip, and then again at 1:09, which Berlin (in yellow) has possession.
Transferring that to hockey, I think it would make for an intimidating environment if the fans were to do this when the Sens were set up in the offensive zone on power plays. If nothing else, it'd give people something more constructive to do than yell "Shooooooot!!"

Haha, as an alumnus I support this as well!
I like he clapping when in attacking zone as well as the idea of going with tunes for familiar songs. I also don't mind the "beat traffic" chant, though I am sure the Sens don't want cheers that put down our own fans.

I've been thinking that adapting "when the saints go marching in" would work for the Sens. I'll get working on some lyrics. Starting at a simple known tune like that is key.

Gotta be simple. A few words tops. Maybe a little question and answer type chant around the All in All Red theme they did a few years ago?
One person (drill sergeant style): AAAALLLL IN????
Everyone: ALL! RED!
Repeat...
Something like that might be cool and could be started by a couple people. Or have one section doing the calling and another doing the answering. Sens brass - if you're reading this, why not try this out on the jumbotron and see if it catches on?

Bingo. Literally change one word. Saints to Sens.
I went to a Spurs game once, and that's what we chanted that a LOT. And we were in the away supporters section. You limit it to the beginning lyrics, though:
Oh when the Sens...
Go marching in...
Oh when the Sens go marching in...
I want to be... in the number
Oh when the Sens go marching in.
Then one dude: Oh when the Sens..
Crowd: OH WHEN THE SENS
Go marching in GO MARCHING IN
Oh when the Sens go marching in...
I want to be.. in the number.
Oh when the Sens go marching in.
...etc.
Easy peasey. It would work, and it is epic as all hell when an entire stadium is on it. Even a single (but entire) section would have great results; for example look how loud away supporter sections can get at soccer games. Only concern is it takes a good minute, so during play something would inevitably occur to make the crowd stop and make that "Aahhhhhhh" noise.
Could you imagine this at CTC? Unrealistic, maybe, but a guy can dream:

I will not subjugate myself to the scoreboard. Might as well revert to, "everybody clap your hands. *clap* *clap* *clapclapclap*."

Oh the year was nineteen ninety two
(how I wish I was in Ot'twa now)
A letter from Ziegler gave a team
To the prettiest city I've ever seen
God damn them all, we were told
We'd cruise the league for Stanley's gold.
We'd lose no games, shed no tears...
Now I'm a broken man counting all my scars, the last of Firestone's Senators.
Oh Brucie Firestone scoured the league
(how I wish I was in Ot'twa now)
For twenty brave men, all hockey-men who
could make for him the Senator's crew
God damn them all, we were told
We'd cruise the league for Stanley's gold.
We'd lose no games, shed no tears...
Now I'm a broken man counting all my scars, the last of Firestone's Senators.
The Senator's team was a sickening sight
(how I wish I was in Ot'twa now)
She'd score once a game and her blueline stunk
and the goalies with their stresses and their failures and funk.
God damn them all, we were told
We'd cruise the league for Stanley's gold.
We'd lose no games, shed no tears...
Now I'm a broken man counting all my scars, the last of Firestone's Senators.
On the league's first day, we played the Habs
(how I wish I was in Ot'twa now)
We won, and the fans had a glorious day
Pumping like madmen all the way
God damn them all, we were told
We'd cruise the league for Stanley's gold.
We'd lose no games, shed no tears...
Now I'm a broken man counting all my scars, the last of Firestone's Senators.
And so on...

Wow, that could actually work. Even the seniors will be able to join that one.

How about any time a Senator player has the puck, regardless of where he is on the ice, we scream "Shoooooooooooooooot!!"?
Half the building does that anyway, so it'll catch on fast.

This. Something like this would be amazing at CTC. Replace Spurs with Sens obviously.
