Who Replaces Artem Zub? Merilainen Lost on Waivers

The Sens are off to a slow start in preseason. More importantly, they have injuries to worry about, including Artem Zub, who won't be ready to start the season. At least. Who takes his place?

Is Yakemchuk ready? The Sens don't have much choice but to turn to him.

Leevi Merilainen was lost on waivers on Friday, which happened after our recording. The Canucks put in a claim for him. We look back on what he meant to the Sens two seasons ago.

Owner Michael Andlauer speaks on Tkachuk and says his family got in his kitchen. And Ron MacLean does an unusual interview with Sens GM Steve Staios to start the season.Subscribe and share the show with another Senators fan, and let us know your preferred line combinations for opening night.🏒 SUPPORT SENS NATIONSupport the show on Patreon:https://www.patreon.com/sensnation🎙️ LET'S HEAR YOUR TAKE!Use any device to leave us a voicemail with your Senators take or question.
