The forward has scored \u200b17 goals and 36 points across 64 games with the league&#8217;s bottom-ranked team. Zetterlund is an RFA heading into this summer and will need to be extended by Ottawa, as no extension is currently being reported. While Robins and the fourth-round pick are sweeteners in this deal, Zetterlund will inject some much-needed offence into the Senators roster as they look to compete for a playoff spot.<\/p>\n<h2 data-start=\"397\" data-end=\"465\"><strong data-start=\"397\" data-end=\"465\">San Jose Sharks Continue Rebuild and Receive Ostapchuk, Gregor, and a Second-Round Pick<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"666\">The leagues worst-ranked team continues to sell off pieces for future assets. Ostapchuk is a former second-round pick of the Senators, and scored a goal and three assists across 43 NHL games this season. At 21 years of age, Ostapchuk has more developing to do before being an impact player for San Jose. Fortunately for the team, Ostapchuk&#8217;s prime will line up well with young stars <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/c\/celebma01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-03-07_hr\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Macklin Celebrini<\/a>, Will Smith and Victor Eklund.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"666\">In addition to Ostapchuk, GM <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/g\/griermi01.html?utm_medium=linker&amp;utm_source=lastwordonsports.com&amp;utm_campaign=2025-03-07_hr\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mike Grier<\/a> has added another second-round pick to an organization that already possesses an embarrassment of riches in regards to futures. Veteran forward Noah Gregor will be a valuable player to have in the bottom six, where his veteran experience could rub off well on the young forwards of the Sharks. With this move, Grier has continued to set up the Sharks as a future powerhouse through the draft.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"467\" data-end=\"666\"><em>Main Photo: Timothy T.
