So the Ottawa Senators acquired Matt Duchene ahead of their overseas trip to Sweden where they will take on his former team the Colorado Avalanche as part of the NHL’s Global Series?
Pencil him in for 14 goals right now.
After seeing his name bandied about in rumours for the past two years, Duchene finally moved on joining the Ottawa Senators Sunday night in what has to be considered the biggest trade that Senators general manager Pierre Dorion has ever made.
Dorion has never been shy to make a deal.
Since inheriting the general manager’s role, he has been one of the most active managers in the league, but never has he made a deal of this magnitude before.
