Just ahead of the NsHL entry draft the Ottawa Senators have relieved Head Coach Paul Maurice of his duties. "Last season's second half collapse was disastrous. We had a couple meetings with the front office staff and Coach Maurice and we decided it was best to move on. We are looking for a new coach to erase the and wipe the slate clean from last season." GM Hickerson said. The Ottawa Senators are rumored to start the interview and selection process of a new head coach after the entry draft on Saturday.
With the formal announcement of Joe Pavelski retiring from professional hockey the Senators wasted little time in finding a replacement with the acquisition of Vincent Trocheck from the St.Louis Blues. "Trocheck will play a top six center role for us, he has some impressive offensive skills. His experience and leadership will help out our younger guys in our top six as well." Hickerson added.
The Senators are slated to pick at #32, #48 and #62 then not again until the 7th round at #202 and #208. Hickerson has been rumored to be working the phones looking to add a pick or two to add to the Sens prospect pool.
