Ottawa’s 32nd-Overall Target Board Starts With Forward Options

The Senators are staring at the part of the draft where smart teams do their real work, because 32nd overall can still produce a player who outplays the slot for years. Forward targets at that spot usually come with a little more projection than polish, and that is where the scouting department earns its money. Ottawa does not need another name for the sake of it - it needs a player who fits the next layer of the roster plan.
