The Ottawa Senators have called up Jacob Bernard-Docker to their NHL roster.

This call-up is a very notable one, as Bernard-Docker is regarded as one of the Senators' top prospects. The 2018 first-round pick appeared in his first eight NHL games this past season with the Senators, where he had an assist. Interestingly, he carries the same stat line for the Belleville Senators this season as well.

With the Senators having a rough go of things (4-6-0 record), it makes sense for them to make changes to their defensive core. Let's see if Bernard-Docker can provide the spark they need to turn things around.
