The Ottawa Senators liked the sound of the new nickname they found pinned to their jerseys yesterday morning: Canada's team.

With the elimination of the Vancouver Canucks from the Stanley Cup playoffs on Thursday night, the Senators found themselves the only NHL team left to wave the Maple Leaf.

They're hoping the country gets behind them the way it got behind the Calgary Flames during their march to the final in 2003.
