Know the North: Ottawa Senators 2021 Season Preview

Welcome to “Know the North,” a new series from us here at FlamesNation breaking down what to expect from each of the seven teams in the NHL’s North Division.

Only the historically bad Detroit Red Wings finished with a worse record than the Ottawa Senators in the Eastern Conference last year. Still, despite concerns around the team’s ownership and management, there’s reason to believe that Ottawa could take a step forward in 2020-21 with some new additions and an extra year of experience for their young core.

Will the Senators’ moves be enough to place them in one of the four Canadian playoff spots?
