The Ottawa Senators have called a news conference at 3:15 PM where they are expected to announce the firing of general manager Pierre Dorion. According to sources, team owner Eugene Melnyk informed Dorion over dinner that it was best to part ways. The firing comes after the team received severe punishment for mishandling the Evgenii Dadonov trade. Dorion's fingerprints are all over the Senators, and his departure marks a significant change for the organization. The Senators will return to practice on Friday and skate on Saturday ahead of their game against the Tampa Bay Lightning.
