Dylan Holloway added two goals for the Oilers, and Mattias Janmark, Adam Henrique, Darnell Nurse, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Ryan McLeod had the others.

He was in on all three goals the Oilers had in the middle frame, scoring once and adding two assists.

He’s really involved with helping us with whatever we need, but he’s not overly involved like where he’s in your face every day. “Those players are committed and committed to winning and being selfless, who are really, really good people.

Ottawa also is getting a third-round pick from Florida in 2025, while the Senators are retaining half of Tarasenko's salary. “We are excited for him to join our team, and to compete for the Stanley Cup once again.”Ottawa now has $7.2 million in cap space. He has tons of playoff experience — 97 games in 10 years — and helped St. Louis win the Stanley Cup in 2017.
