The Ottawa Senators are looking for some help up front
Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun: Ottawa Senators GM Steve Staois has been in the market for a forward and some added depth on the blue line. He hasn’t found the right fit or price that he’s willing to pay.
It’s believed they would like a top-six scoring forward, but some of that will depend on how David Perron does after recently returning from a two-month layoff with a bad back.
It’s also believed they’ve had some interest in Chicago Blackhawks Ryan Donato and Seattle Kraken Brandon Tanev.
