The Ottawa Senators have found Randy Lee's replacement.

Peter MacTavish has been named the Senators' new assistant general manager, effective Oct. 1, the club announced Monday.

MacTavish has been involved in player representation for the past 15 years, most recently with CAA Hockey, and his focus with Ottawa will include contracts, salary arbitration, and managerial support of the franchise's hockey operations at both the NHL and AHL levels.

He takes over the job previously occupied by Lee, who resigned from the organization after being arrested on a harassment charge stemming from an incident at the NHL draft combine.
