The Ottawa Senators today announced that Logan Brown, Vitaly Abramov and Christian Jaros have been assigned to the Belleville Senators, effectively setting their opening day roster ahead of the 2019/20 NHL season.
This leaves the Senators with 24 players in their training camp roster, including both Rudolfs Balcers and Christian Wolanin, who will miss a significant portion of the season due to injuries.
There has been a wide range of reactions to the team’s decision to send down Brown, with players such as Scott Sabourin, Cody Goloubef and Filip Chlapik all remaining on the team’s opening roster.
