Brady 1

Yesterday was a historic day for the Ottawa Senators as CIBC was announced as the first ever official home jersey sponsor. The significance of the day was not lost on the Senators captain Brady Tkachuk who seized the opportunity to go and surprise some unsuspecting CIBC staff and customers.

Alongside the Captain were Spartacat and Senators legend and current VP of Business Operations, Chris Phillips.

The trio made their first stop at the CIBC in Stittsville where they took the time to meet with the staff, shaking hands with everyone, posing for photos, handing out Sens hats and of course taking the time to sign some autographs.

After that a few clients who were lucky enough to be in the branch at the time got tickets to Sunday’s game against the Tampa Bay Lightning courtesy of the captain!

Living up to the reputation that he’s built here in Ottawa, one stop wasn’t enough for Brady. After their first stop all three made their way to a second branch on Kanata ave to surprise the staff there. Much like the first stop everyone was delighted to see Brady, Chris and Sparty walk through the doors. They got the whole staff to come out and take a picture with the trio, making memories to last a lifetime.

This partnership may have just begun but it feels one that will be an incredible fit. Much like how the patch is sewn on the the jersey itself, CIBC is now sewn into the fabric of the Ottawa Senators, something that feels as secure as knowing that Brady Tkachuk has your back on the ice.
