The Ottawa Senators can only go down from here

By Daniel Love, Featurd

Those were the words of Ottawa Senators GM Pierre Dorion yesterday, just one season after the team came within a double-overtime goal of the Stanley Cup Final. What once seemed like a promise of greatness probably felt more like a monumental fluke as reporters listened to Dorion's latest presser, their wounds as fresh as any other in Ottawa as Erik Karlsson began packing his bags for San Jose. A team captain, generational talent, and potentially top five player in the league is now a Shark, cast off from a team that the entire city of Ottawa wanted to see him lead into the future.
