This makes sense for logistical reasons. The AHL team would be closer to Ottawa, making transfers and player movement easier.
The team is still expected to play in Binghamton for the 2016-2017 season, but their future in New York remains cloudy beyond that time frame.
What complicates relocation issues is that the Senators have 3 more years on their lease atthe Floyd L. Maines Veterans Memorial Arena after next season.
Every Binghamton Senators’ home game has been played there since they entered the AHL in 2002.
These rumors coincide with planned renovations for Yardmen Arena in Belleville, Ontario.
