The NHL’s 2020 trade deadline is set for February 24th, and is quickly approaching. As has been the case in recent years, many eyes will be locked on GM Pierre Dorion, the Ottawa Senators, and their wealth of pending UFAs that could be heading out the door.
Mark Borowiecki’s breakthrough season could not have come at a better time for him. The 30-year-old Ottawa native has already set career highs in goals (5), assists (11) and points (16), and has seen his average playing time increased from 15:34 to 18:10 from last season to now.
Just based on counting metrics, it’s plausible to think that he could seek a raise on his current contract, that carries a cap hit of just $1.
