Foegele Scores in Senators Debut as Ottawa Tops Kraken 7–4

His two-way profile addresses Ottawa's need for defensive depth and penalty killing.

Overview

  • Ottawa acquired Warren Foegele from the Kings at the trade deadline and he scored in his first game, a 7–4 win over Seattle, per The Hockey Writers.
  • Foegele opened on the left side of the fourth line with Lars Eller and Fabian Zetterlund after coach Travis Green signaled a gradual integration.
  • The Senators view Foegele as a defensive forward who can bolster a struggling penalty kill that has ranked near the bottom of the league.
  • Ottawa moved David Perron to Detroit at the deadline after he had been out since Jan. 20 following sports hernia surgery.
  • Seattle dealt with short-term lineup issues, with multiple players ill and recent trade addition Bobby McMann unavailable due to visa processing.
