Lars Eller's past production will show excellent value Senators signed him for
Lars Eller | Scott Taetsch/GettyImages After being eliminated by the Carolina Hurricanes in five games in the second round of the 2025 playoffs as a member of the Washington Capitals, Lars Eller became an unrestricted free agent. Eller went from one playoff team to another two months ago.
Eller signed with the Ottawa Senators to a one-year contract this past free agency. The Senators will be Eller's sixth different NHL team while the upcoming 2025-26 season will be his 17th NHL season.
Eller is a respected veteran at 36 years old who won a Stanley Cup with the Capitals in 2018. However, the value the Senators signed Eller for was solid for the production he's had in his career.
