The Ottawa Senators were unable to avoid being the punchline of a joke on Sunday's Canadian-themed episode of The Simpsons. The episode, titled D'Oh Canada, featured a scene with Lisa Simpson recovering in a Canadian hospital with an RCMP officer in uniform at her bedside. Lisa responded by crossing her fingers and repeatedly praying "please not Ottawa," before the Mountie put a Senators cap on her head and apologized for the disappointment. The Simpsons visit Niagara Falls and, through a series of mishaps, Lisa goes over the powerful flow of water that separates Ontario and New York. She lands on the Canadian side and is admitted to hospital, where she is made an honorary Senators fan while learning about Canadian healthcare coverage.
