Ottawa Senators Have Best Top Defensive Duo in Atlantic

Marc Methot isn’t going to provide a lot of offensive explosiveness, but he plays a steady stay-at-home game on the defensive end.

When looking at other teams in the Atlantic Division, the Senators definitely have one of the better top duos among the teams.

The Florida Panthers have Aaron Ekblad and Keith Yandle as their top duo. Ekblad was the 1st overall pick in the 2014 NHL Draft, and he’s already showing tremendous promise.

Ekblad is only 20 years old. In two full seasons in the NHL, he registered 39 points in his rookie season and 36 points in his sophomore campaign.
