Reports suggest that the Ottawa Senators have expressed interest in acquiring forwards Mason McTavish from the Anaheim Ducks and Jordan Kyrou from the St. Louis Blues. However, it is understood that Kyrou, who has a no-movement clause, may not be willing to waive it to join Ottawa. The Ducks are believed to be seeking a first-round pick and immediate help in exchange for McTavish, whose father serves as a pro scout for the Senators. Additionally, Jared McCann of the Seattle Kraken, entering the final year of his contract at $5 million, might become available.
