The Latest On Marc Methot's Contract Talks

10/14/2014 at 1:16pm EDT

from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN,

When the Ottawa Senators signed Bobby Ryan to a long-term extension earlier this month, it removed what would have been the team’s biggest distraction in terms of a negative, nagging story line.

But another loose end remains. Top-four blueliner Marc Methot is an unrestricted free agent after the season and contract talks have not produced an extension to this point.

The Senators made a contract offer two weeks ago but to no avail. It’s believed talks will resume this week.

What’s clear is this: the Senators front office does not want this to drag on all season into the trade deadline.

more plus some tanking talk...
