Weekly Question: Who is Ottawa’s Candidate for Biggest Surprise?

It’s no secret that the cupboards are full in Ottawa. With ten selections in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft, and a plethora of prospects that came before, there’s no shortage of intriguing prospect stories for fans to overanalyze think about.

With prospect development comes wild uncertainty. Look no further than the Sens own pipeline for easy examples of this. You have a player like Drake Batherson, having seen 120 names called before his in the 2017 draft, become one of the top prospects in Ottawa and, arguably, the league. You have Logan Brown, a towering skilled centre selected 11th overall who, since 2016, hasn’t been able to cement a position for himself in the big leagues.
