Today, friends! Today is the day that we’ve all been waiting for: the Ottawa Senators kick off training camp for the 2019-20 season. Last season’s debacle feels like an eternity ago and all the usual giddiness of a new season is upon us.
- Speaking of Sens’ training camp, the team has released a full list of this year’s attendees. No surprise PTOs to speak of this year, but I expect to see some intriguing battles for a spot in the opening night line-up nonetheless. Maybe the player with the most to prove in this year’s camp is Max Lajoie: the young defenseman was one of the biggest surprises at the start of last year but by the time the season ended it seemed like Christian Wolanin had clearly surpassed him on the organization’s depth chart.
