Samuel Ersson News: Doesn't receive qualifying offer
Ersson was not given a qualifying offer by the Senators on Monday, Julian McKenzie of The Athletic reports.
While the decision will allow Ersson to test free agency Wednesday, according to McKenzie, the Senators are still working to re-sign the 26-year-old backstop after acquiring him from the Maple Leafs on June 26. If he does return to Ottawa, Ersson will likely battle for the No. 2 spot alongside Leevi Merilainen.
