The 50 Greatest Ottawa Senators Of All Time: #50 – #41

5 of 10

46. Sylvain Turgeon

Stats: 152 GP, 47G, 88P
Height/Weight: 6foot0, 190lbs
Acquired: 1992 NHL Expansion Draft (20th overall, Montreal Canadiens)

Turgeon was one of Ottawa’s better scorers during the early years and as an expansion pick, he had a few decent seasons in Ottawa, but was never anything spectacular. He’s remembered for scoring the Senators first game winning goal, against his former team, the Montreal Canadiens.

Turgeon was a former 2nd overall pick by the Hartford Whalers with whom he played 7 years of good hockey with. It was in Hartford where he would record a career high 79 points. He would finish his career with the Senators and just a hair under 500 points; 88 came with the Senators.

He played three years in Ottawa, playing at around a 0.50 PPG pace. He suffered some injuries, which led to his departure from the NHL, but gets put on the list due to his early and mildly productive years in Ottawa.
