The Nashville Predators head to Canada’s capital tonight to take on the Ottawa Senators. Despite a wealth of young talent, the Sens have had an incredibly average season, going 18-18-3 so far with their latest game an 8-4 loss to the Seattle Kraken.
They’ve been getting significant contributions from both their own drafted players and offseason acquisition Claude Giroux. With the exception of Giroux, their top offensive contributors are all 25 and under, for almost any definition of “top offensive contributor” you want to use.
Brady Tkachuk leads the team with 26 assists and 40 points, while Tim Stützle has contributed 18 goals and trails Tkachuk by a single point.
