Brady Tkachuk entered the NHL in 2018-19 after being selected with the No. 4 pick in the 2018 draft, and he signed his first contract extension with the Ottawa Senators on Oct. 14, 2021.
Tkachuk was named captain three weeks later.
While the Senators haven’t been among the Stanley Cup odds contenders at the BetMGM online sportsbook for most of his tenure in Ottawa, Tkachuk was influential in helping the Sens secure their first playoff berth in seven years.
So, will the franchise’s 10th captain commit to the Sens and sign an extension, or will he, like his brother, depart for pastures anew?

Will Brady Tkachuk Sign An Extension And Stay In Ottawa?
Tkachuk rubbed a lot of Senators fans the wrong way with his conduct at the Olympics.
He admitted as much, saying that he felt like “Public Enemy No. 1” upon his return to Ottawa after helping Team USA secure the gold medal.
While emotions ran high, Tkachuk has been a devoted and loyal servant of the franchise and the city, and he vehemently denies harbouring any ill will.
It’s quite the opposite, actually, with Tkachuk raving about his time in the nation’s capital.
However, Tkachuk hasn’t had the success he would have envisioned when he arrived in Ottawa as a teenager. While there aren’t any hockey odds available on a potential next team yet, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him sign with an American team, following in his brother Matthew’s footsteps.
