Ottawa Senators schedule 2026

24 games

37 Ottawa Senators games are listed between Tue, Oct 27 and Wed, Apr 7. November is the busiest month on the current schedule with 8 games, out of 7 months with dates. Most listed games start at 7:00 PM local time (21 of the 37 with a published start time). Tuesday is the most common game day (8 of 37). The lowest listed get-in price is $16 for Nashville Predators vs. Ottawa Senators on Mon, Nov 30 (12:00 PM local start), while NHL Global Series: Chicago Blackhawks vs. Ottawa Senators on Fri, Dec 18 is the most expensive game to get into at $500. Across the 37 priced games, the median get-in price is $48, so anything under that is cheaper than a typical Ottawa Senators date right now.

The Senators play an 82-game NHL regular season that runs from early October through mid-April, followed by the Stanley Cup Playoffs for any team that finishes in a top-three Atlantic spot or grabs an Eastern wild card. Ottawa's home games at Canadian Tire Centre usually fall on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday nights, with a handful of Sunday and weekday afternoon matinees built around holidays and school breaks. The schedule's biggest nights are the Battle of Ontario games against the Toronto Maple Leafs — typically four meetings a season split between Ottawa and Toronto, with at least one Saturday night Hockey Night in Canada window — and the rivalry games against the Montreal Canadiens, an extension of one of the oldest hockey rivalries in Canada and a fixture of the Senators schedule since the franchise's 1992 return. The Senators are also a frequent fixture in outdoor and heritage games; the 2017 NHL100 Classic at TD Place against the Canadiens, played in front of more than thirty-three thousand fans on a frozen Lansdowne Park pitch, remains a touchstone for the modern club and the kind of event the LeBreton Flats arena project is meant to host more often. Season-long, expect home stands clustered around the holidays, a long Western road trip somewhere in February, and the league-mandated mid-season break in late January or early February for the bye week and All-Star Game window.

Ottawa plays in the NHL's Atlantic Division, which means the schedule leans heavily on a tight cluster of Eastern Conference clubs — Toronto, Montreal, Boston, Tampa Bay, Florida, Buffalo and Detroit. Expect three or four meetings a year with each Atlantic rival, plus a healthy block of Metropolitan Division games against the Rangers, Devils, Penguins, Capitals and the rest of the East. The Senators rotate through every Western Conference team across the season, so even fans who only catch a handful of games each year will see the league's biggest stars roll through Canadian Tire Centre. Most Sens road trips swing through one Atlantic rival and one Western road swing per month, and home stands of three to four games are common around the holiday break and February. The card above shows the next confirmed Ottawa Senators game — home or away — with start time, opponent and ticket links.

About the Ottawa Senators

The Ottawa Senators are the National Hockey League's anchor in Canada's capital, an expansion franchise that returned NHL hockey to Ottawa in 1992 after a near sixty-year absence. The modern Sens carry the name and red, black and white identity of the original Ottawa Senators, a founding NHL club that won eleven Stanley Cups between 1893 and 1934 before the Great Depression and a shifting league map pushed pro hockey out of town. The current club plays its home games at Canadian Tire Centre in Kanata, a roughly twenty-thousand-seat arena off the 417 in Ottawa's west end, with a long-discussed new downtown arena at LeBreton Flats moving forward as the franchise's future home closer to the urban core. Under the Michael Andlauer ownership group that took over from the Eugene Melnyk estate, the Senators have leaned into a younger identity built around centre Tim Stützle, captain Brady Tkachuk and winger Drake Batherson, with a core meant to keep the team relevant through the back half of the decade. For fans searching the Sens schedule, looking up a Sens game tonight, hunting tickets to a Battle of Ontario clash with the Maple Leafs or a Bell Centre rivalry game against the Canadiens, Ottawa is one of the most accessible NHL stops in the league — a true hockey market where the sea of red still shows up on big nights.

Ottawa Senators tickets at Canadian Tire Centre are among the more accessible in the NHL, mostly because the building seats close to twenty thousand and the demand curve varies sharply by opponent. For a mid-week game against a Western Conference visitor, upper-bowl seats often start around forty to sixty dollars on the secondary market, with lower-bowl sidelines in sections 101 through 122 typically running in the hundred-to-two-hundred-dollar range. Club seats in the 200 level — heated indoor concourse, in-seat service, padded — sit a tier above that, and full-bar Loft and Bell Sensplex Lounge inventory rounds out the premium options for groups. The price picture changes hard when the Toronto Maple Leafs or Montreal Canadiens visit. Battle of Ontario nights routinely double or triple base pricing across the bowl, and the upper-deck Leafs- and Habs-fan invasion is a known feature of those games — book early and lock prices weeks in advance for those dates. The best value seats tend to be sections 117 through 119 behind the attacking-twice end, or upper-bowl corners in sections 314 through 318 for the full-rink tactical sightline. Use the live ticket card above this block for the cheapest confirmed seats to the next Sens home game on the schedule.

What to expect at a Ottawa Senators game

A Ottawa Senators matchday means ice hockey under the lights at Canadian Tire Centre. It's set in Kanata, an easy place to arrive early and soak up the atmosphere. The building holds 18,652-seat arena. Games against the Bruins are the ones fans circle first — the two sides have met 2 times in the data we track, and those dates draw the biggest crowds. Plan to arrive at least 45 minutes ahead to clear the gates and find your seat; a typical ice hockey game lasts roughly 2–3 hours.

Senators vs Maple Leafs — Battle of Ontario

The Battle of Ontario is the headline rivalry on the Senators' calendar and the biggest ticket inside Canadian Tire Centre every season. Ottawa and Toronto meet three to four times a year, split between Kanata and Scotiabank Arena, and the rivalry has its own folklore — the early-2000s playoff series that Toronto won four straight times, the 2002 Game 7, the Daniel Alfredsson moment that Maple Leafs fans still mention. The modern version is built around Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner against Tim Stützle and Brady Tkachuk, with both clubs trying to climb the Atlantic. Expect a divided lower bowl, an upper deck that splits closer to fifty-fifty than Ottawa fans would like, and the loudest crowd of the year when the Sens score first. Tickets for Leafs games are the priciest of the season — book early for these dates.

Senators vs Canadiens — the Capital-versus-Quebec rivalry

Ottawa-Montreal is the other built-in Canadian rivalry on the Senators schedule, separated by a two-hour drive down the 417 and Highway 40. The two clubs have history that long predates the modern era — the original Senators and Canadiens were Eastern Canada rivals in the 1910s and 1920s — and the rivalry has had real playoff stakes in modern times, including a 2013 first-round series and the 2017 NHL100 Classic outdoor game at TD Place. Habs fans travel well to Kanata, often filling the upper bowl in the corners and end zones, and the Bell Centre return trip is one of the toughest road environments in the league. Expect three to four meetings a year, at least one in a Saturday-night national broadcast window, and a noticeably louder building than usual for a mid-week game.

Senators vs Bruins — Atlantic Division grudge

Boston is the Atlantic Division opponent that has cost Ottawa the most playoff pain over the years, from the early-2010s first-round series to the rugged 2017 first-round overtime games that the Senators eventually won in six. The Bruins bring a hard, structured forecheck and a deep veteran core — the kind of opponent that exposes any young Senators team that takes a night off in its own end. These games tend to be physical, fought along the walls, and often decided by special teams and goaltending rather than open-ice skill. Expect three to four meetings a year between Ottawa and Boston, with at least one Saturday-night TSN5 window built into the schedule. Bruins fans turn out in noticeable numbers at Canadian Tire Centre, particularly for Sunday matinees and the long-weekend dates that draw New England visitors, but the building is firmly red and loud when the Senators score first.

Senators vs Panthers — Atlantic Division clash

Florida has emerged as one of the most demanding measuring-stick opponents in the Atlantic Division. The Panthers play a heavy, fast forecheck and roll four lines that punish opponents who are slow through the neutral zone — exactly the test a young Senators team needs to pass to be taken seriously. Ottawa typically sees Florida three to four times a season, with the Amerant Bank Arena road trip slotted into the longer Western/Florida swing most teams build into January or February. The Sens' best chance in these games tends to come on the power play and on Brady Tkachuk's ability to win net-front battles against a Panthers defence that is happy to make every game a slugfest. Expect a tighter-than-it-looks lower bowl when Florida visits Kanata.

Senators vs Sabres — Atlantic underdog meeting

Ottawa-Buffalo is the Atlantic Division matchup with the most fanbase overlap — Buffalo is a manageable drive from Eastern Ontario, and Sabres fans regularly make the trip to Kanata while Senators fans return the favour at KeyBank Center. Both franchises spent the back half of the 2010s rebuilding through the draft, and the result is a pair of young, skill-forward rosters that produce open, high-event hockey when they meet. Tage Thompson, Rasmus Dahlin and Owen Power against Stützle, Tkachuk and Sanderson is one of the more entertaining young-core matchups in the league. Expect three to four meetings a season and a noticeably looser, more end-to-end game than most Atlantic Division dates. Tickets typically run on the lower end of the Senators' home-game pricing.

Senators vs Lightning — Atlantic Division benchmark

Tampa Bay has set the Atlantic Division standard for most of the modern era, with back-to-back Stanley Cups in 2020 and 2021 and a roster built around Steven Stamkos's successor core, Nikita Kucherov and Victor Hedman. For Ottawa, the Lightning are a recurring benchmark — the kind of opponent that tells you exactly where your power play, penalty kill and defensive structure actually stand. The games tend to be skill showcases, with Tampa happy to run an open game when the score allows. Ottawa typically sees the Lightning three to four times a season, with one game built into the Florida road trip alongside the Panthers visit. Expect a quieter early period and a building that gets loud quickly if the Sens grab the first lead.
