The big question all Ottawa Senators fans are dying to have answered is who will be behind the bench this fall. Will management aim for a relatively inexperienced coach that could adapt to the system already in place and make some tweaks to improve the club? Or will they set their sights on an experienced veteran coach that will take the Ottawa Senators in a new direction?
Outgoing coach Dave Cameron oversaw the Senators through a modest 70-50-17 record (.511 win percentage) since taking the helm in 2014 but lacked any NHL coaching experience prior to taking the job which upset many fans.
