The Ottawa Senators have made a notable trade with the San Jose Sharks, acquiring forwards Fabian Zetterlund and Tristen Robins, along with a fourth-round pick in 2025, in exchange for Noah Gregor, Zack Ostapchuk, and a second-round pick in 2025. Zetterlund, 25, has been a bright spot for the Sharks this season, tallying 36 points in 64 games, while Robins, a 23-year-old, has shown promise in the AHL with 18 points in 41 games. Both players bring youthful energy and scoring potential to the Senators.

On the other hand, San Jose welcomes 26-year-old Gregor back to the team, hoping he can recapture previous form after a quieter season in Ottawa, where he registered just 6 points in 40 games. Ostapchuk is a young forward with potential, having scored 1 goal in 43 NHL games this season. With this trade, both teams aim to reshape their rosters as they head into the second half of the season.
