Ottawa Senators Strengths and Weaknesses

Strengths:

  • โœ…Tim Stutzle: While Drake Batherson is having a decent season, the emergence of Stutzle has been a revelation, as the young forward has netted 23 goals and 52 assists, while leading the team with 75 points, He is projected to finish with 77 points.

  • โœ…Veteran leadership: The Senators have added some older players with Stanley Cup playoff experience in recent years to help their young team.

He won a Stanley Cup with the Blues in 2019. 

Weaknesses:
