OTTAWA — The 2024-25 season was a thrilling and enjoyable journey for Ottawa Senators fans. After eight long years, the team finally returned to winning ways, generating immense enthusiasm and excitement, transforming from perennial underperformers to winners in a truly memorable season.

Although their playoff run concluded in Game 6 at the hands of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Thursday night still felt like a celebration for the fanbase and the organization, recognizing the significant progress made throughout the year.

If you had asked the fans before the 2024-25 season if they would accept a first-round playoff exit after a closely fought series, their answer would have been a resounding yes, echoing the immediate “Brady” chants for Brady Tkachuk that erupted at the start of Game 6.

Following the game, Thomas Chabot reflected: “As much as it stings right now and it sucks, it was a hell of a year by everybody right from the get-go, from training camp. Every single guy in this room bought into the plan, to the process, and we never stopped.”
