Anton Forsberg will lead the Senators between the crease as they take on a favourable matchup in Buffalo Wednesday night on the road. Forsberg is coming off a strong 2021-22 where he finished eighth in save percentage (.917 Sv%) across the NHL with 22 Wins and a 2.82 GAA. The Senators are without back-to-back games for their first 18 games of the season, meaning Forsberg could be in for a workhorse amount of action while Ottawa waits for Cam Talbot to return from an upper-body injury.

Brassard was with the Senators on a PTO and signed a one-year deal on Monday. The 35-year-old had eight goals and 11 assists (19 points) in 46 games with the Flyers and Oilers last season.

Hamara was selected in the third-round (No.87 overall) in this summer's NHL Draft and the Senators wasted no time signing him to an entry-level deal. Hamara had two assists in 24 games with Tappara Tampere (Liiga) in 2022.

Norris was an RFA and signed an eight-year deal that carries a $7.95M AAV cap-hit and a limited no-trade clause in the final four years. Norris is coming off of a breakout campaign, leading the Senators in goals (35) and third in points (55) in just 66 games. With the additions of Alex DeBrincat and Claude Giroux this offseason, Norris will have no shortage of talented wingers to play with next season.

Highmore played the last two seasons with the Canucks, posting 12 points (5G / 7A) in 46 games a season ago. Signing a two-way contract with the Blues suggests he'll start the 2022-23 season in Springfield (AHL).

Bibeau split his 2022 season between the AHL and ECHL, going 4-1-2 with a 2.48 GAA and .905 SV% in 10 AHL appearances with the Charlotte Checkers. He'll likely be the No.4 goalie on the Senators' depth chart.

Larsson is a former first-round pick (No.27 overall in 2015) who has 165 career NHL games under his belt, all with the Anaheim Ducks. However, he spent almost all of 2021-22 in the AHL, where he had two goals and 13 assists (15 points) in 55 games. The Senators' blueline is very thin, so Larsson could see some NHL playing time in 2022-23.

Davies appeared in six games with Nashville in 2022 but spent most of his time in Milwaukee (AHL). He had six goals and 25 assists (31 points) in 54 AHL games and will likely report to Rochester (AHL) to start 2022-23.

Rubins spent the first four years of his career with the Maple Leafs but moves to their Ontario rival on a one-year deal with the Senators. He played in his first three career NHL games a season ago but will likely be an AHL player in 2022-23. He had 11 points (1G / 10A) in 58 games with the Toronto Marlies last year.

Anderson, who recently turned 41-years-old, went 17-12-2 with a 3.12 GAA and .897 SV% in 31 games with the Sabres in 2022. Signing a one-year deal gives the Sabres a reliable veteran netminder that can mentor Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in the 2022-23 season.
