Drake Batherson Signs Largest Contract in Senators History

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson signed an eight-year contract extension with the team on Tuesday. It's a historic deal, as the Senators handed out the largest contract in franchise history. The contract starts in 2026-27 and pays Batherson $86 million. Batherson, who turned 28 in April, has spent his entire career in Ottawa and has steadily improved each year. He finished last season with a career-high 71 points (33 goals, 38 assists) in 79 games. Batherson also delivered 122 hits, adding to his fantasy appeal.

Drake Batherson Seeking Eight-Year Extension

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson hopes to sign an eight-year contract extension, according to Postmedia's Bruce Garrioch. The Senators have until Sept. 15 to sign Batherson to an eight-year deal. When the new collective bargaining agreement takes effect on Sept. 16, the maximum contract length for players signing with their current teams will drop to seven years. Garrioch reported last month that Batherson and the team aren't close to agreeing on a new deal. Batherson is a pending unrestricted free agent. The upcoming campaign will be the final season of his current six-year deal, worth $4.95 million annually. He is likely seeking a significant raise after becoming a 30-goal scorer and posting a career-high 71 points in 2025-26.

Drake Batherson, Senators Far Apart in Contract Talks

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson is currently on track to start the 2026-27 season as a pending unrestricted free agent. According to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia, Batherson and the Senators "aren't close" to a contract extension. Batherson will finish a six-year contract with a $4.95 million cap hit. His new deal is expected to carry an average annual value of $10 million to $11 million. Keeping Batherson will be vital for Ottawa, especially after losing Brady Tkachuk this offseason. Batherson was the team's second-highest scorer in 2025-26, contributing 33 goals and 38 assists in 79 games.

Drake Batherson Pots Two Goals in Sunday's Win

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson netted two goals in Sunday's 7-4 victory over the San Jose Sharks, recording his seventh multi-goal outing of the campaign. Over the last 15 years, only Brady Tkachuk has had more multi-goal efforts in a single season with the Senators (nine in 2023-24). On Sunday, Batherson produced a power-play goal in the first period and recorded the game-winning tally during an even-strength situation in the third. He's trying to post his first 30-goal campaign and is now just three goals away. Meanwhile, Batherson only needs one more point to reach his fourth straight 60-point season. The 27-year-old is averaging over a point per game this month, so it shouldn't take long.

Drake Batherson Scores Twice Versus Montreal

Ottawa Senators right winger Drake Batherson had two goals, but it wasn't enough as his team lost a tight 3-2 game to the Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night. Both his goals came in quick succession late in the first period, one on a deflection and one on a tip-in, but Ottawa was not able to hold on to the 2-1 lead. Batherson is having another fine season with 25 goals and 32 assists, which is good for second on his team in points.

Drake Batherson Picks Up Three Points in Monday's Win

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson piled up three points as the team ran riot against the Boston Bruins on Monday night, winning 7-2. Batherson provided two of the goals and had one assist. He bagged two points on the power play. After missing a few games at the beginning of the season due to injury, Batherson has been on a roll, accumulating 10 points (four goals and six assists) in seven games. The 27-year-old has finished each of his last two games with three points. His success has been bolstered by Ottawa's lethal power play, which has converted a league-best 35.1 percent of its chances with the man advantage.

Drake Batherson Aims to Return Wednesday

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson (upper body) is aiming to return to action on Wednesday, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports. Batherson has been out of the lineup at the start of the season due to an upper-body injury. He's likely to miss a third straight contest on Monday against the Nashville Predators, but it looks like Ottawa will have him back on Wednesday night versus the Buffalo Sabres. Batherson has become a key top-six contributor for the Senators and still has a chance to post a fourth consecutive 60-point campaign, despite missing some time.

Drake Batherson Ruled Out for Thursday

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson (upper body) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against the Tampa Bay Lightning, Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia reports. He has been ruled out for Ottawa's season opener due to an upper-body injury. Batherson practiced on Wednesday but left early. There's a chance he may be ready to jump into the lineup on Saturday when the Senators face the Florida Panthers. Thursday will mark the end of Batherson's impressive ironman streak, as he hasn't missed any games for three straight seasons. With Batherson out, Ottawa is expected to use Fabian Zetterlund on the top line Thursday night. Zetterlund has struggled badly since moving to Canada, but he should draw fantasy interest as a partner of Tim Stutzle and Brady Tkachuk.

Drake Batherson to Miss at Least Two Weeks

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson (upper body) has been ruled out for at least two weeks, according to head coach Travis Green. The versatile forward pulled an upper-body muscle in Tuesday's practice. Getting injured at any point in a season is tough for a player, but the two-week timeline at least gives Batherson hope that he can recover in time for opening night. The Senators begin play on Oct. 9 against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Batherson has posted three straight 60-point seasons, while averaging nearly 1.5 hits per game during that time.

Drake Batherson Leaves Practice Early

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson (undisclosed) left Tuesday's practice early. Per TSN's Claire Hanna, Senators head coach Travis Green said Batherson "pulled something" during the session. It would be a major setback for the Senators if Batherson has to miss significant time. The 27-year-old finished second on the team last season with 68 points (26 goals, 42 assists) and 149 hits in 82 games. He has previously proven himself to be a durable player, not missing a single contest over the past three campaigns. Batherson needs to recover by Oct. 9 to maintain his ironman streak.

Drake Batherson Tallies Four Points Versus Ducks

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson recorded four points in Wednesday's 5-1 win over Anaheim, scoring his second career hat trick and dishing out one assist. Batherson netted three straight goals after Noah Gregor had lit the lamp early in the game. He finished the contest with three power-play points. Following back-to-back 60-point campaigns, Batherson has become a point-per-game player this season. He's sporting 12 goals and 20 assists with 28 games played. The skillful winger has only failed to add to his scoring account twice in his past 16 appearances.

Drake Batherson Keeps Rolling With Two Goals

Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson scored a pair of goals in a 4-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs. Batherson tied the game late in the second period and then put the Sens on top for good in the third, collecting the game-winning goal. The 25-year-old has been on fire for the better part of two months now, notching 23 points (11 goals, 12 assists) in his last 19 games. He is somehow available in a decent amount of fantasy leagues, so be sure the check your waiver wire to see if he's out there.

Drake Batherson Racks Up Four Points In Preseason Win

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson produced a four-point outing as the team beat Florida 4-2 in a preseason game on Sunday. Batherson collected a hat trick of assists, including one on the power play, and completed his four-point game with an empty-net goal. The 25-year-old made his third preseason appearance and now has five points (one goal, four assists) on his account. Batherson has scored only once in preseason, and even that came with the net empty, but he's been very active in the offensive zone, producing 18 shots on goal. The American winger will look for further improvement in 2023-24 from a career-high 62 points (22 goals, 40 assists) he posted last term.

Drake Batherson Pushes Point Streak To 11 Games

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson became the first player on the team since 2011-12 to record an 11-game point streak when he finished Tuesday's 3-2 shootout victory over Boston with two assists. He recorded a power-play assist on a Tim Stutzle goal and helped Alex DeBrincat to get a goal in an even-strength situation. The 24-year-old is now the sixth player in franchise history to reach an 11-game point streak. He has totaled seven goals and nine assists during the run, getting to 33 points for the year with 34 games played. It's been a big season for Batherson, although he's still carrying an ugly minus-23 rating around, with a large chunk of his points registered on the power play.

Drake Batherson Stretches Point Streak To Nine Games

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson had one goal on six shots in Tuesday's 5-1 loss to Winnipeg, extending his point streak to nine games. The 24-year-old potted a power-play goal in the first period, but the team had an awful night at the office and couldn't compete with the hosts. Batherson added two hits to his line and finished the action with a minus-three rating in 17:43 of ice time. The talented winger is now minus-23 overall for the season despite registering 30 points across 32 games. He has gone minus-eight on his current scoring streak. Batherson has greatly benefited from the fourth-best power play in the league, with the Senators finishing off 28.5 percent for their chances with the man advantage.

Drake Batherson Extends Point Streak To Six Games

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson recorded a goal and assist in Wednesday's 3-2 win against the Canadiens, stretching his point streak to six games. Both of his points came on the power play in the second period, with Batherson tallying his eighth goal of the campaign and his 18th assist. The 24-year-old is boasting 26 points in 29 games, but some managers might be put off by his ugly minus-18 rating, which is one of the worst in the league. Batherson is currently on a nice scoring streak, but he hasn't finished any of the six games with a positive plus/minus.

Drake Batherson, Tim Stutzle Remain Out Saturday

Ottawa Senators forwards Drake Batherson (illness) and Tim Stutzle (lower body) remain unavailable for Saturday's clash with the Rangers. Both players already missed Thursday's 3-2 loss to Nashville. Stutzle joined the team at Friday's practice, which was a good sign that he might play in New York, but that won't be the case. The next chance to return for Stutzle and Batherson comes on Sunday against Winnipeg. With a couple of big offensive pieces missing, Adam Gaudette joined the top six at practice and looks set to skate on the second line Saturday. He's managed only 14 points in 46 games this season but will now have a better chance to perform in a bigger role.

Drake Batherson Doubtful For Thursday's Action

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson missed Thursday's morning skate with an illness and is doubtful to play against Nashville. Connor Brown took his spot on the second line at the morning skate and will likely fill in for him in the game as well if necessary. Batherson has only just returned from an ankle injury that robbed him of two months of action, so he'll no doubt be eager to play, but it looks like the odds are against him. The 23-year-old has notched four points in five games since returning to action, and he's managed 38 points in total in 36 games over the season. Depth forward Dylan Gambrell is also dealing with a illness and is doubtful for Thursday's game.

Drake Batherson Returns To Action Saturday

Ottawa Senators right wing Drake Batherson (ankle) will be back in the lineup on Saturday against Florida. He last played on Jan. 25 and has been absent for 28 games. Batherson will go straight back to the top line and the first power-play unit. Ottawa hasn't had a lot to cheer for in 2021-22, but Batherson has been one of the few positives with 34 points in 31 games. The 23-year-old has shown great potential and his work this season even includes three four-point efforts.

Drake Batherson Will Miss Significant Time With Injury

Ottawa Senators forward Drake Batherson (ankle) is set to miss a minimum of two months as a result of the high ankle sprain that he sustained on a hit from Sabres goalie Aaron Dell on Tuesday night. Batherson collided with the goaltender as he was rounding the net and crashed into the end boards with force. "You're looking at a couple months, for sure. Maybe longer," said Senators coach D.J. Smith. Batherson was enjoying the best season of his young career, as he totaled 13 goals and 21 assists for a team-high 34 points through 31 games, while he was set to take part in his first NHL All-Star Game. Fantasy managers should place the young forward onto the injured reserve spot as a two month timeline would mean that the 23-year-old can potentially make it back for the fantasy playoff rounds.
