Sens sign North Dakota's Christian Wolanin to entry-level deal

The Ottawa Senators have signed defenseman Christian Wolanin out of the University of North Dakota to a two-year entry-level contract, the team announced Wednesday.

Wolanin was a Senators' fourth-round draft pick in 2015, and has spent the last three seasons with the Fighting Hawks. In 40 games this season, he led the team with 35 points.

The 23-year-old is expected to join the Senators this week.
