Ben Hutton Signs Professional Tryout Contract With Ottawa Senators

The Ottawa Senators have signed veteran defenceman Ben Hutton to a professional tryout. The 33-year-old Brockville native spent last season with the Vegas Golden Knights, playing 55 regular-season games with six goals and 15 points, plus seven playoff games. Hutton provides valuable depth and experience to an Ottawa blue line dealing with Artem Zub's lower-body injury recovery as training camp gets underway.
