## Resource

Sammy Blais is officially heading to Ottawa after signing a two-way deal with the Senators, bringing his gritty, veteran presence to a team in need of depth. After a solid AHL season with Laval (14G, 24A in 35 games) and playoff contributions, he added two goals and three assists in 13 NHL games with Montreal. Known for his physical play and leadership, Blais brings 8 NHL seasons, 79 points, and a Stanley Cup ring from St. Louis. Expect him to slot into a bottom-six role, offering energy, hits, and locker-room stability as he starts fresh with Ottawa.
