Sitting among the bottom five teams in the league ahead of Monday’s deadline, the Senators are in their familiar role as a seller. But, this year at least, the market may be in their favour. (HockeyScanner)

Dorion went out of his way to express his willingness to move draft picks if needed. He has ten picks already for 2022, but could be looking to add for 2023, a solid draft class, for which he has just eight picks at the moment. With a lot of prospects in the system, the Sens won’t be adding castoff prospects teams are looking to dump, but will target players identified as being able to help Ottawa now.

Teams know they can count on Ennis for experience and hustle. He has chipped in 21 points with the Sens this season and scored his seventh of the campaign Wednesday vs Columbus.Teams never feel they have enough blue-line depth, and so a playoff team may feel the need to acquire Brown, a right-shot defenceman who brings size.

Another who would certainly be on the market is defenceman Nikita Zaitsev , but his $4.5-million price tag for two more seasons is a stumbling block.
