Sanderszn has begun in Ottawa baby!

 

[Mickey Marner]

Good luck, kid.

If he plays this year keep him on the third pair. Let's be patient and gradually increase his ice time as the season progresses

This is a bit of an imagined distinction on your part, all 6 of our DMen are playing between ~18.5-21 mins now with Chabot out and Sanderson, assuming he is healthy enough to play this year, will be fine in that range.

Sanderson had to miss UND's tournament game with a hand injury and it sounds like it'll keep him out for a little while longer but would be in line to make his NHL debut closer to the end of the season.

Chabot out so he should play a lot

Chabot out so he should play a lot

Sanderson is injured too so it’s going to be a little bit until we see his debut.

 

[JimmyApples]

Sanderson is going to take so much pressure off of Chabot

New broberg?

 

[smack66]

some really good young D in Ottawa.

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

I think Sanderson is going to help turn things around in Ottawa. He’s going to be a stud.

Congrats to the young man, can't wait to see how he looks in the NHL and develops.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Hooray!!

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Calling it now. Ottawa Senators in the playoffs as soon as next season!

 

[CanadienShark]

Forgot he was still in the NCAA and assumed he was signed/playing AHL. Guy could be the next Pietrangelo and has had time to develop.

You already got your free elite defenseman…don’t be greedy

 

[Sweetpotato]

He's going to be an absolute stud Ottawa, congratulations Sens fans.

 

[KevinRedkey]

When can he start playing?
17 games left in the season. Was hoping we would only play him for the final 9 to not burn a contract year.

Edit: Injury suggest he might play the final 5 or so

 

[Andrei79]

Good news for Ottawa. Really looking forward to watching him play, was a big fan his draft year.

Good signing, I think he's a guaranteed regular in the NHL but not sure if he'll pan out the way people expect him to - i.e. top pairing
