Ottawa Senators goaltender Robin Lehner is a colorful, emotional personality who typically isn’t afraid to speak his mind to the media. He’s also known to have a temper and maybe, just maybe, the pressure of playing more this season and struggling (9-15-6, 3.22 goals-against average, .909 save percentage) has made him a bit sick of reporters.
It makes sense, then, that Lehner named his five pet piranha after Sens beat writers: Don Brennan, Bruce Garrioch, Sylvain St-Laurent, Ken Warren and…a fifth piranha that died, according to Lehner. The reason is easy enough to figure out. Lehner is playing up the metaphor of journalists as bloodthirsty piranha, gnawing away at a story.
