Senators' Cody Ceci: Receives qualifying offer from Senators
Ceci was tendered a qualifying offer from the Senators on Monday.
Analysis:
Ceci posted a solid third campaign with the Senators this past season, notching a career-high of 10 goals, while also matching a career-high of 16 assists. The Senators want to keep the 22-year-old with the organization, as he still has plenty of upside and has a chance to see an increased role next season. By extending a qualifying offer, the Senators can now match any offer Ceci receives on the open free agent market, meaning they'll have the upper hand in retaining his services.
