On Friday afternoon, I had the unique opportunity to interview Sportnet‘s Elliotte Friedman for the latest episode of The 6th Sens Podcast.

Friedman raised some eyebrows around the nation’s capital when he linked the Ottawa Senators to relocation in his latest ’30 Thoughts’ column:

26. Where does that leave Quebec City? One week ago, Brian Mulroney, Chairman of Quebecor’s Board of Governors, told LaPresse that city’s bid is “not for tomorrow.” It is expected Bettman will ask Quebec City to wait as Winnipeg did, while Carolina sorts out its ownership situation and Ottawa continues negotiations for a new arena. Bettman again threw cold water on the Hurricanes moving and people will wonder why Ottawa is even being mentioned, but a smart commissioner always keeps his options open — just in case.

Not only did Friedman clarify and expand upon this thought, he covered Mike Hoffman’s future, the Senators’ new front office and coaching staffs and Jared Cowen’s future in the 40-plus minute interview.

 

While you’re listening to the podcast, I encourage you to take the time and visit the podcast’s Patreon page to help support and sustain our podcast. To upload and update the podcast, I recently had to invest in SoundCloud’s $145/year SoundCloud Pro Unlimited registration, so I’m looking to this site’s readership/listeners to help absorb that cost.

Basically Patreon is a crowdfunding site that allows an audience to help support content creators whose work you enjoy. Patreon allows you to support this podcast and cover expenses like registering for a pro Soundcloud page (allowing us unlimited upload storage space for our podcasts) while also allowing us to invest in more or better equipment which will help make this podcast as good as it can be.

If Patreon isn’t your thing, no worries. The podcast is still  free to download. You can subscribe to it via Itunes where if you want to submit a review of the podcasts, that’d be great. You can also access the podcast by streaming it using SoundCloud or by visiting our Patreon page.

Thanks for listening and supporting the blog/podcast!
