The Ottawa Senators named Travis Green as their new head coach on Tuesday, May 7.

Green, 53, joins Ottawa after spending the last 21 games of the 2023/24 season as interim head coach of the New Jersey Devils, where he earned an 8-12-1 record. He was promoted from associate coach after Lindy Ruff was let go on March 4.

Green previously spent five seasons at the helm in Vancouver, where he went to the second round once (2021) before losing to the Vegas Golden Knights.
