While the Senators goaltending depth remains an ongoing story line this off season, don't rule out the organization selecting a goalie at this year's draft.
Malcolm Subban, a goalie with the Belleville Bulls and brother of Habs defenceman PK Subban was in Ottawa today to work out with the Senators and to meet with the team's staff.
For those that may recall, prior to the Ben Bishop trade, I suggested the Sens could be looking to take a goalie at this year's draft and mentioned that Subban was a guy the organization was extremely high on.
Despite adding to the goaltending ranks mid-season, it seems as though the Senators are still considering a goalie with one of their picks in this year's draft.
NHL Central Scouting has Subban as the top ranked North American goalie and many believe he could ultimately be a first round pick. This mock draft has him going at 29th to the Devils, while Craig Button had him in his top ten. While there is no guarantee Subban is still on the board when the Sens pick at 15, expect them to target a goalie at some point in this draft.
Other names that continue to come up as potential draft day targets for the Senators include defenceman Cody Ceci, Slater Koekoek, Hampus Lindholm and Olli Maatta.
- Still no official announcement from the organization as of yet but Ottawa 67's star and Sens prospect Shane Prince has signed an entry level contract with the organization. He'll have a shot at cracking the Binghamton Senators roster as early as next season.
