The Senators have acquired Ryan Callahan and a 2020 fifth-round pick from the Lightning for Mike Condon and a 2020 sixth-round pick.
Callahan has one year left on his contract and will be placed on LTIR after suffering a career-ending back injury. Callahan had seven goals and 10 assists (17 points) in 52 games with the Lightning last season.
The Senators have acquired Artem Anisimov from the Blackhawks for Zack Smith.
This trade was all about the Blackhawks clearing cap-space and Anisimov is a middle-6 upgrade over Smith. Anisimov is coming off of a 15-goal, 22-assist season in 2019 and had three straight 20-plus goal seasons but won’t have the same surrounding cast with the Senators.
The Senators have signed Lassi Thomson to a three-year, entry-level contract.

The Senators have re-signed Christian Wolanin to a two-year, $1.8M contract ($900K AAV).
The Senators have signed Nick Paul to a one-year, two-way contract.
The Senators have signed Jordan Szwarz to a one-year, two-way contract.

The Senators have acquired Connor Brown, Nikita Zaitsev and Michael Carcone from the Maple Leafs for Cody Ceci, Ben Harpur, Aaron Luchuk and a 2020 third-round pick.
Brown has not missed a game in the last three seasons but his offensive production has dropped as he moved down the Maple Leafs depth chart. Brown was a prolific scorer in the OHL and moving to a team with a lot of young wingers will allow Brown to play an expended role and likely return to 20 goals for the first time since 2017.
The Senators have acquired Michael Carcone, Nikita Zaitsev and Connor Brown from the Maple Leafs for Cody Ceci, Ben Harpur, Aaron Luchuk and a 2020 third-round pick.
Carcone moved from Utica (AHL) to the Marlies in the middle of last season and finished the year with 20 goals and 24 assists (44 points) in 62 AHL games. The 23-year-old will help bolster Belleville’s (AHL) lineup in 2020.
The Senators have acquired Nikita Zaitsev, Connor Brown and Michael Carcone from the Maple Leafs for Cody Ceci, Ben Harpur, Aaron Luchuk and a 2020 third-round pick.
The Maple Leafs needed to clear some more cap space and Zaitsev was a prime candidate to be moved. The right-handed defenseman has five years left on his deal that carries a $4.5M cap-hit. Zaitsev had a solid first season in the NHL but struggled in each of the last two seasons. He showed during his days in the KHL that he has some offensive ability and maybe he will find that while playing in Ottawa’s top-4.
The Senators have re-signed Jack Rodewald to a one-year deal worth $725K.
Rodewald spent most of the 2018-19 season with Belleville (AHL), where he was first on the team in goals (23) and second in points (47) in 59 games. He also played in six NHL games but has yet to register a point in 10 career games with the Senators.
The Senators have signed Cody Goloubef to a one-year extension worth $800K.
Goloubef appeared in just five games with Ottawa this season, spending most of the year in the AHL, where he had 12 points 3G / 9A) in 30 games. Goloubef is expected to start the 2020 season with Belleville.
With the No.19 Pick in the 2019 NHL Draft the Ottawa Senators select Lassi Thomson.

The Lightning will place Ryan Callahan on long-term IR.
Callahan has degenerative disc disease of the lumbar spine that will likely end his career at the age of 34. Callahan has one-year remaining on his contract that would have carried a $5.8M cap-hit but LTIR will provide the Lightning with some cap relief. Callahan finished the 2018-19 season with seven goals and 10 assists (17 points) in just 52 games.
The Senators signed Magnus Hogberg to a two-year extension worth $1.4M ($700K AAV).
Hogberg spent most of the 2018-19 season with the Belleville Senators (AHL) where he was named the team’s most valuable player after going 21-17-4 with a 2.32 GAA and .917 SV% in 39 games. During his four games with Ottawa, the 24-year-old was 0-2-1 with a 4.09 GAA and .884 SV%. He will likely start the 2019-20 season with Belleville.
The Senators have signed Andreas Englund to a one-year extension worth $700K.
Englund, 23, was a second-round pick in 2014 and has played sparingly in the NHL since, including three games this season. During his time in the AHL, the 6-foot-3, 189 lbs. defenseman scored three goals with 11 assists (14 points) in 68 games.
The Senators have signed Anthony Duclair to a one-year extension worth $1.65 million.
Duclair was acquired from the Blue Jackets as a part of the Matt Duchene trade and drastically improved his numbers in Ottawa. Duclair saw over 1:30 TOI more per game with the Senators and scored eight goals with six assists (14 points) in 21 games. With a lack of talent in Ottawa heading into 2019-20, Duclair should continue to play a middle-6 role for the Senators.
The Senators have signed Morgan Klimchuk to a one-year contract worth $700K.
Klimchuk is a former first-round pick (No.28 overall in 2013) but bounced all over Canada last year. The 25-year-old spent the first three years of his career in Calgary before being moved to Toronto and eventually Ottawa last year. He played 17 games with the Flames AHL affiliate, 13 with Toronto’s and eight with Ottawa’s—overall he had nine goals and six assists (15 points) in 38 AHL games.
