Senators' Drake Batherson: Returns to Ottawa to start season

Batherson, as expected, will be on Ottawa's opening-night roster, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

Batherson split his time between Ottawa and AHL Belleville last season. His value remains highest in dynasty leagues, and he could be worth a flier in redraft leagues if he gets off to a decent start and earns the trust of coach D.J. Smith.
