Andlauer has a well-established history with the sport, having purchased the American Hockey League's (AHL) Hamilton Bulldogs some two decades ago.
"I believe that the Senators' fanbase is one of the most passionate in the league and I'm excited to take the franchise's success both on and off the ice to the next level," Andlauer said in a statement.
"The short and long-term future of the team is incredibly bright, and I look forward to getting to know the team, the fanbase and the community."
