The current incarnation of the Ottawa Senators are the second incarnation to use that name. The original team was founded in 1883 and went on to win 11 Stanley Cup titles, but relocated at the end of the 1934 season. The current version of the Sens was founded in 1992 but hasn’t had the success of its predecessor. The Senators are searching for their first Stanley Cup since returning to the NHL.
