Crisis Communications in Pro Sports

In professional sports, a crisis doesn’t wait for a press release—it plays out in real-time under the bright lights of the NHL and the relentless scrutiny of a national media cycle.

Whether it’s a high-profile trade or a front-office pivot, the Ottawa Senators operate in one of the most intense communications environments in Canada. But the strategies used to manage a "power play" crisis aren't just for hockey—they are essential tools for any communicator navigating government, corporate, or nonprofit sectors.

Join CPRS Ottawa-Gatineau on February 19th for an exclusive evening with Ian Mendes, Vice President of Communications for the Ottawa Senators. Ian will pull back the curtain on how the Senators navigate public scrutiny and share why sports-style crisis response is the new standard for every industry.
