The National Hockey League has adjusted the disciplinary action against the Ottawa Senators for their involvement in a 2021 trade of forward Evgenii Dadonov. Instead of forfeiting a first-round draft pick, the Senators will select 32nd overall in the 2026 NHL Draft and pay a $1 million fine. The change follows a request from the team citing new ownership.
