SUNRISE, FLA. - The Senators restocked the shelves Friday night at the BB&T Center Friday night in the NHL entry draft.
After sending goaltender Robin Lehner and centre David Legwand to the Buffalo Sabres earlier for the No. 21 pick to go with the No. 18 selection they already had, the Senators took Saint John defenceman Thomas Chabot at No. 18 and then took centre Colin White from the U.S. national team development program with the No. 21 pick.
Given the fact the Senators have had success with draft picks in this area like Cody Ceci of the Ottawa 67’s and Curtis Lazar from the Edmonton Oil Kings, there’s no reason to believe that down the road Chabot and White won’t both get a chance to play in the NHL.
