Rated Sens

Rose Karbasi

A Senators podcast that’s funny, emotional, and a little unhinged when it needs to be — but still backed by real hockey analysis. Standup comedian Rose Karbasi, breaks down the games, digs into the numbers, and debates the decisions shaping the Sens, with a close eye on the rest of the NHL. Occasionally joined by fellow comedian and guest, DK, who is a new Sens fan. The Leafs ruined hockey for him, so he’s trusting the Sens to fix that. Bold choice. Expect real analysis, strong opinions, and comedians trying to find the humour in a team they’re emotionally dependent on. The jokes come naturally. The optimism has to be earned.

    Powerless Play, Great Vibes | The Rated Sens Podcast

    We're 4-1-0, the vibes are immaculate, and I'm fully committing to the seven-year cycle theory: 2027 is the year. I don't make the rules. This week: the comeback against Nashville, why this team finds ways to win instead of ways to lose, and how Ullmark changed the whole mood. And yes, the power play. We have to talk about the power play. IN THIS EPISODE- The sevens theory: 1997, 2007, 2017... 2027?- Nashville: down 2-0, Stützle on the PP, Batherson ties it with 1:23 left, Stützle and Pinto in the shootout- Stützle's start: 4 goals and 8 points in 5 games. Breakout or heater?- Ullmark at .942, and for once I'm calm when he's in net- Missing Sanderson (the human eraser) and Zub, and everyone playing more minutes- The power play: 3-for-24, with too many shots missing the net or getting blocked- Player check-ins: Pinto, Giroux, Amadio on the PK, Cozens, Zetterlund, Greig, Chabot as captain- Other people's problems: Florida, Winnipeg, Philly, Chicago, and the Rangers' goalie situation TIMESTAMPS00:00 The seven theory & why this season feels different03:30 Nashville comeback recap07:56 Injuries, Sanderson & the team’s identity13:21 Ullmark, goaltending & winning close games18:11 Heavy minutes, defense & resilience22:55 Player check-in: Stützle, Pinto, Giroux & Cousins35:15 Power-play deep dive38:29 Injury outlook & goalie depth40:13 Around the league: Winnipeg and the fallout elsewhere47:30 Philadelphia, Chicago & other league notes49:27 Rangers, Edmonton & season surprises52:20 Week ahead   Rated Sens, powered by THPN, is brought to you by DraftKings.
