Did the Sens just burn Uber in Canadian Tire Centre right before the game?!

You may already be sick of hearing about the Ubergate story coming from Ottawa, but we might have the best part of it right here. 

In a viral video released last night, several players of the Ottawa Senators openly joked about their penalty-killing abilities, mocked one of their coaches, Martin Raymond, and laughed at the ineffectiveness of special-team meetings in a candid video from their Uber car ride during a team’s road trip. The video — since taken down — appears to have been shot in Phoenix on Oct. 29 or 30 during the team’s western road swing. While forward Mark Stone revealed that the team was aware of the video before it went viral, it does not change the fact that head coach Guy Boucher feels embarrassed by its content and takes it personal. 

“Marty Raymond, the only coach in NHL history to have the worst power-play and the worst PK within a calendar year,” says Sens forward Matt Duchene, in reference to Martin Raymond, an assistant coach in charge of the team’s penalty-killing this year and power-play last season.

“Here’s the other thing, too. We don’t change anything, ever. So why do we even have a meeting? I haven’t paid attention in three weeks.”

Since, the players involved, Thomas Chabot, Dylan DeMelo, Matt Duchene, Alex Formenton, Chris Tierney, Chris Wideman, and Colin White issued a statement to apologize to Raymond and the rest of the team for their comments. 

They are also studying all of the legal options to sue Uber, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

However, the Sens might have burned Uber the best on Tuesday night as they faced the New Jersey Devils at the Canadian Tire Centre. Right before the game, the Sens used a banner advertisement that seemed to have a special message for the company. 

“Uber: You bring the noise”

And of course, everyone noticed… 

This is just too funny!
