What a day at the Games for Eugene Melnyk.
Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray was sitting in his office on Monday afternoon trying to figure out what to do with his time.

Yep, that’s Ottawa Senators 2012 first round draft pick Cody Ceci getting his jersey signed by former Ottawa Senators goalie Damian Rhodes. Below, Ceci and his sister Chelsea meet Daniel Alfredsson the same year.
It’s hard to imagine now — when Daniel Alfredsson reigns as Ottawa’s Swedish-born king, with Erik Karlsson the well-heeled heir apparent — but Swedes weren’t always so prevalent among the ranks of the Ottawa Senators.
The odds are long that the Ottawa Senators will land a superstar with the 15th pick in the first round of this year’s draft. They’ll get a competent NHL player, certainly. Given the recent track record of director of player personnel Pierre Dorion and his scouts, it’d be a disappointment if they didn’t.
The waiting game continues for Ottawa Senators Daniel Alfredsson.
