Senators Eye McTavish as Ducks Angle Gets Interesting

Ottawa is circling Mason McTavish, and that alone tells you the Senators are not treating this as a garden-variety rumor. Anaheim’s young center has enough pedigree to make front offices lean in, and Ottawa’s interest gives this one a real draft-pick-and-prospect smell. The Ducks are not exactly handing out premium talent for fun, so any conversation here is going to have more layers than the usual summer chatter. This is the kind of name that can reshape the market if the phone lines stay hot.
