One potential depth target for OTT is Viktor Stalberg from CAR. Think there is other interest, but he'd be a good fit.

Sure enough several hours later the press confirmed the speculation as other sources reported the trade between the two teams.
Believe the Ottawa Senators are getting Viktor Stalberg from the Carolina Hurricanes. Checking on details.

Those details would turn out to be the Ottawa Senators third-round pick from this year’s draft.
