Height/Weight: 5foot10, 195lbs
Acquired: Free Agent Signing
Todd White was a short stay Ottawa Senator who would put up some big numbers during the early 2000’s.
White, a local player entered the organization as a free agent at 25-year-old, and it was in Ottawa where he broke into the league full-time. What’s interesting is that the Senators signed another local free agent at 25-years-old with limited NHL experience this off-season in Eric O’Dell, a similar player in stature and previous production.
White’s best year came later in Atlanta, but he also had two formidable years in Ottawa with 50 and 60 point campaigns. The departure came after a down year when White was sent to the Minnesota Wild for a 4th round pick.
White would play 230 games with the Senators and would total 144 points. For a player with a non-tradional path too the NHL, White made himself quite a good career; finishing with over 600 games and 350 points.
