Who will be the team’s second-line centre? The prime candidate seemed to be Jean-Gabriel Pageau, but with him out long-term, the best bets seem to be Chris Tierney, Zack Smith, Logan Brown, or Colin White. Assuming the Sens don’t trade for one, who will get the bulk of the minutes behind Matt Duchene?
(Note: these answers were recorded before we knew Brown had been sent to the AHL.
