Xavier Bourgault Inks New Deal with Senators, Avoids Arbitration

The Ottawa Senators have reached an agreement with winger Xavier Bourgault on a new contract, successfully avoiding a scheduled arbitration hearing. Bourgault enters the new deal following a career-best season in the AHL, where he tallied 57 points. The former first-round selection will look to build upon this offensive momentum as he continues his development within the Senators' system.
