If the Ottawa Senators were ever going to take a marked step forward in their rebuild, the improvements would have to come from within.
There are some players up for grabs if the Senators get creative. This piece will serve to evaluate their fit and potential cost.
Forty-eight hours after facing the NHL's worst team, the Ottawa Senators will square off against one of the best on Monday night.
The Ottawa Senators kicked off the month of March with a 5-3 win over the San Jose Sharks. Brady Tkachuk and Shane Pinto both recorded goals in their return from injury, while David Perron, Tim Stützle and Michael Amadio all scored as well. Stützle also recorded an assist for a two-point night, while Ridly Greig had two assists of his own.
It was a rocky return from the 4-Nations break as the Ottawa Senators fell to the Montreal Canadiens by a score of 5-2.
The Senators need more from their winger, whom Green pushed to be harder on pucks from as way back as last summer. Batherson scored a hat trick against the Anaheim Ducks in mid-December, which should’ve been an encouraging sign for his season. But he has scored only four goals in his next 28 games.
