In last night’s 3-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings, Chris Tierney recorded another assist for the Ottawa Senators.
That may not sound important, but you’d be surprised to learn that Tierney is only one behind Thomas Chabot for most assists on the Senators this season. The former second round pick (2012) is riding a four-game point streak and is now two points away from tying his career high of 40 points.
Making a mere $2.9 million, Tierney is already proving his worth to the Senators.
A Solid Season
Part of the return the Senators received in exchange for Erik Karlsson, Tierney has played in all 57 games this season, averaging 17:10 TOI per game, a new career high.
