Assessing The Athletic's Ottawa Senators Fan Survey w/ Ian Mendes + 2022 NHL Draft Rankings 48-45

Are fans losing confidence in Pierre Dorion? Is DJ Smith the right coach to bring the Ottawa Senators back into Stanley Cup playoff contention? Should the Sens prioritize a Top-4 defenseman or Top-6 forward this summer?

Ross Levitan and Brandon Piller are joined by Senior Writer with The Athletic & Friend of the Show Ian Mendes to answer all those questions and more from his recent fan survey. Then, we continue our 2022 NHL Draft Rankings with #48 Elias Salomonsson, #47 Mattias Havelid, #46 Matyas Sapovaliv, and #45 Hunter Haight.
