Cocaine Senators

The Cocaine Senators refer to the 2007/08 Senators team.

Following a Stanley Cup Final appearance the year before, the expectations for the 2007/08 Senators were high. The Senators started the season exceeding these expectations by going 13-1.

This turned out to be the high point for this Senators team as it struggled through the rest of the season only winning 7 of 21 games through January and February. The Senators squeaked into the playoffs as the 7th seed before being swept by the Pittsburgh Penguins in a series that is only memorable for the spartan introduction.

It is unclear why this team fell apart.
