Hammond is on fire as of late. He was the NHL's 3rd star of the week going 3-0, 1.30 GAA & .957 S% but the best was the burger tossed on the ice after the shootout.

Good for him for picking it up but next time he should take a nibble....

Sens should've started him instead of Anderson against the Bruins. Especially after Anderson let in four 3rd period goals against the Flames.

Hate that nickname, but man is he ever a nice story. Came out of nowhere and has probably made one of Anderson or Lehner expendable. Too bad that team is run by a donkey who won't spend to the cap. They have a lot of good pieces but for some reason refuse to surround them with a good supporting cast.

Thats hilarious, I love the sense of humour.

Someone threw a hamburger on the ice so he just rolls with it.

Well I doubt anyone thought he would go 10-0-1 in his first 11 games. I say roll with him until the burger meat dries up.

If he's made of McDonalds ingredients he might never breakdown.

Yea, they should have called him Hammy or something like that. Would have been so much better.

If Ottawa is smart, they trade him to the Oilers for a ransom, and then watch him revert to his AHL numbers.

Or, crazy thought, they could just call him Hammond and not rip off the name of a McDonalds character...

Hope he can continue, but as a journeyman AHL'er, I wonder if this is today's Jim Carey story.

Yeah, between him and some other Canadian NHL owner, it pretty much proves that you don't want your favorite NHL team owned by a guy who became a billionaire thanks to generic knock off drugs.

If any GM in the NHL actually has that as their talent evaluation of the guy then we may be about to witness a hilarious mistake.

Dude is almost certainly yet another example of a guy going on a hot streak. It won't make anyone expendable, it'll just result in the Sens being in worse draft position.

You're right. Losing is the new winning, and winning just isn't good for a team.

I mean, you wouldn't actually want to win now, right?
