Ottawa Senators Postgame Show - March 24, 2026

·1 hr 13 min·2 clips

Rookie Carter Yakumchuk delivers in NHL debut with goal and assist

It opens with the Jim K. Ford Lincoln Post Game Show. Ottawa has beaten Detroit 3-2. The show goes right to the three stars. Tyler Clevin gets the third-star nod for a hard night on the penalty kill and 28:11 of shorthanded work. Linus Olmark takes second star after stopping 31 of 33 shots. The hosts call him the difference-maker Ottawa needed on a night with five defensemen out. Two players were making their first NHL appearances. The win is treated as a sweep of the back-to-back after the Rangers and the Red Wings. Ottawa is now 8-3-1 in the second half of back-to-backs. The result puts the Senators into a playoff spot for the first time since November. The phone lines open for reactions at 613-750-1200. The Gabriel Pizza text box at 12-1200 is part of the mix too. One caller praises Olmark for stepping up when it mattered. Another caller brings up the Larkin hit and the DeBrincat fight. The booth spends a long stretch on Zub's reputation as a defender who gets under elite opponents' skin. They point to the way he smothers plays near the net and frustrates stars. The conversation treats the scrum as part of the game's edge, not a separate story. The hosts also work through the physicality with dry, local banter. Throughout, the show keeps coming back to concrete hockey details like saves, penalties, and the health of the blue line. The tone stays excited, local, and a little stunned at the standings shift. It closes with the reminder that every game from here on out matters.

As heard by us

A loose postgame hang built around a 3-2 Detroit win, a strong Ullmark line, and a playoff-spot jump.

The Ottawa Senators Postgame Show stays close to the result and keeps its footing in a 3-2 win in Detroit. Tyler Clevin gets notice for the penalty-kill load, and Linus Ullmark's 31 saves on 33 shots give the night its cleanest argument.
