The Ottawa Senators have had a tough go overall this season, never being able to meet the expectations of being a playoff team many fans had before puck dropped in October. However, with their win over the Vegas Golden Knights yesterday in a shootout, they may be able to turn their season around before long.

According to insider and former NHL player Ryan Whitney, the Senators may be looking to trade captain, Brady Tkachuk; take a look.

The sens have something cooking right now. Rumor Boys hearing that Ottawa would maybe move Brady Tkachuk. Can't believe it though because no one could be that dumb. 9 points out of playoffs with 2 games in hand

Although, by Whitney's own admission, even though the word is out there they they would be willing to trade Tkachuk, doing it soon would be rather silly if you were Ottawa's front office.

The Senators have an outside shot a a playoff spot, they're 9 points out with 2 games hand.

Tkachuk is still just 24 years old, but his ability to lead a team has been called into question a lot this year. With that being said he still had tremendous offensive upside collecting 25 goals and adding 22 assists for a total of 47 points in 55 games.

Bottom line is: if Ottawa does want to part with Brady Tkachuk, teams should be lining up to make offers.
