Ottawa Senators Rebuild After Turbulent Season | Ottawa Senators News

Ottawa Senators’ chaotic 2023-24 season saw seismic shifts from ownership to GM to coaching, fueled by suspensions, draft penalties, and blockbuster trades—all in a desperate bid to rebuild. Michael Andlauer’s new ownership triggered turmoil: Shane Pinto’s 41-game suspension, a forfeited draft pick, and Pierre Dorion’s firing on November 2nd. Head coach D.J. Smith was ousted in December, replaced by Jacques Martin and even legend Daniel Alfredsson, but it was too late—the team was already dead last. By March, they shipped off Vladimir Tarasenko to the Panthers, who won the Cup. It was a brutal year for fans, but the moves laid the groundwork for a new, more competitive future.
