In a surprise move, the Ottawa Senators have traded defenseman David Perron to the Detroit Red Wings. The 34-year-old Perron, a veteran of 14 NHL seasons, has been a key contributor to the Senators' blue line, known for his speed, skill, and physical play. The trade, which sent a 2026 fourth-round draft pick to Ottawa in return, marks a significant shift in the Red Wings' roster as they look to bolster their lineup ahead of the upcoming season. With Perron's addition, the Red Wings aim to strengthen their playoff push in the competitive Central Division.
