“We are very excited to partner with Calian, a locally grown Canadian company who knows what it takes to compete on a global stage,” Cyril Leeder, Senators president and CEO, said in a statement. “Through this landmark agreement, Calian is taking our business relationship to a new level and demonstrating their commitment to our team and continued commitment to our community.

We are stronger together.”

Calian’s logo will be featured on the club’s road jersey beginning Sept. 22 in Toronto when the Senators play the Maple Leafs in an NHL preseason game. Ottawa’s home jersey sponsor is CIBC.

“This partnership is more than a sponsorship, it’s the alignment of two organizations that share many of the same values and winning characteristics like perseverance, resiliency and agility,” Calian CEO Kevin Ford said. “We both have a proud history in Ottawa, and with our road jersey sponsorship, we can take this partnership well beyond our city limits reaching proud Sens fans and Calian employees and customers throughout Canada and the U.S.”
