Ottawa Senators bring in another former Leaf in Tyler Ennis
The Ottawa Senators have announced the signing of free agent forward Tyler Ennis, who most recently played for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Once again the Ottawa Senators have opted to pick up a player from their bitter rivals in Southern Ontario, thanks in large part due to new coach D.J. Smith.
Ennis, a first-round pick of the Buffalo Sabres back in 2008, has signed with the Senators for just one season at a cost of $800,000.
The 29-year-old’s career was heavily derailed by injuries after posting three 20-goal seasons with the Sabres.
After a stint with the Minnesota Wild, Ennis looked to be getting things back on track with the Leafs and even saw playing time alongside Auston Matthews.
