After his appointment in the squad of the Ottawa Senators Bochenski was in 20 games in the highest North American professional league on the ice, his first goal he scored on October 15 against the Boston Bruins . In March 2006, the American was transferred to the Chicago Blackhawks , where he spent the rest of the season. However, Bochenski did not manage to assert himself permanently in Chicago.
