Weekly Question: What’s the biggest challenge facing D.J. Smith next season?

With news breaking this week that defenceman Christian Jaros had agreed to a one-year, two-way extension, the Senators’ once-uncertain roster situation finally has some clarity.

Here are the players signed to one-way deals for the upcoming season (via CapFriendly):

X - White - Dadonov
X - Tierney - C. Brown
X - Galchenyuk - X
Paul - Anisimov - Watson

Chabot - Gudbranson
Wolanin - Zaitsev
Reilly - Brown

Murray (starter)
Hogberg
Nilsson (LTIR)

While there are gaps we can fill in with some of the players signed to two-way contracts who will inevitably be on the roster — Brady Tkachuk at 1LW, Drake Batherson on 2RW or 3RW — we have many more questions than answers.
