As reported by Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, the Senators have placed 27-year-old forward Rourke Chartier on waivers with the intention of assigning him to the American Hockey League's Belleville Senators.
Chartier, signed by the Ottawa Senators in July 2022, had been part of their NHL roster for the entire 2023-24 season until this point. In 34 games this season, the Saskatoon native has recorded three points (one goal, two assists), 14 penalty minutes, and holds a minus-three rating.
