Boedker agreed to terms on a two-year deal with HC Lugano on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Boedker's deal won't kick in until the 2020-21 campaign, so he will still be available for the Senators should the league resume regular-season contests. Even with a 24-team playoff model, Ottawa won't be partaking in a postseason, so at most, Boedker has 11 more games remaining before jetting off to Europe. At 29 years of age, this may mark the end of the winger's NHL career, which would see him eventually retire having registered 118 goals and 209 helpers in 709 games for the Coyotes, Sharks, Senators and Avalanche over the course of his 12-year career.

Boedker played just 20 games in 2019-20 before the hiatus, but skated in nine games in the final 2 1/2 weeks of action before the virus scare.
EDGE Analysis
The reality is that Boedker is probably not going to be around when the Senators are ready to contend again, so there's little reason for Ottawa to give him a lot of time on the ice. Unless he's moved in the offseason, he's probably not worth considering in 2020-21.

Boedker scored a shorthanded goal during Thursday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.
EDGE Analysis
Appearing in just his 17th game of the season, Boedker scored his second goal of the 2019-20 campaign. He's barely played for the Senators this year, which makes Boedker a non-factor in all fantasy formats.

Scoring his first goal of the season didn't help Boedker get back on the ice, as he was a healthy scratch in his team's recent games against Toronto and Dallas.
EDGE Analysis
It's clear that Boedker does not fit coach D.J. Smith's plans. If the former is not in the Senators' plans for this season, there is no reason he should be in yours unless the Senators can move him by Monday's trade deadline. Even then, you'll likely be able to get him cheap.

Boedker has been on the ice for Ottawa, but is nowhere near a return to action, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Garrioch also reports that Ottawa has tried to trade him but has not found a partner yet. Boedker came over in the forced trade of Mike Hoffman, which has continued to be a disaster for the Senators, as he's done next to nothing in Ottawa and carries a $4 million cap hit, making him very difficult to deal. Odds are that he'll only have value if he's traded, but it's hard to see him helping a contender if he can't crack the lineup for the Senators, who sit 14th in the Eastern Conference.

Boedker logged just 6:09 of ice time against Columbus on Monday, which was just the sixth game he's appeared in this season.
EDGE Analysis
Boedker hasn't been able to carve out a regular role in Ottawa's lineup and it doesn't appear that's going to change anytime soon. Barring a slew of injuries that force him into the lineup, there's no need to consider him in any fantasy format.

Boedker has been a healthy scratch for five of the Senators' first eight games of the campaign.
EDGE Analysis
To make matters worse, the veteran winger has only averaged 7:28 of ice time in the three contests he's appeared in. Boedker can be ignored in all fantasy formats.

Boedker (hip) made his preseason debut Wednesday against Vancouver, logging three shots on goal in 10:10 of ice time.
EDGE Analysis
Boedker had been sidelined with a hip-flexor injury for most of Ottawa's training camp prior to Wednesday's contest, so the Senators clearly decided to ease him in by limiting his ice time against the Canucks. The 29-year-old winger will skate in a middle-six role for Ottawa this season and should also see time on one of the team's power-play units.

Boedker will miss the first few days of Ottawa's training camp due to a hip-flexor injury, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.
EDGE Analysis
Boedker's injury doesn't sound overly serious, but there's no reason for the veteran to exacerbate the issue by gutting it out during the Senators' first few training camp practices. The Danish winger will set his sights on recovering in time for Ottawa's preseason opener against Toronto on Tuesday.

Boedker has not scored in his past four games and has just four points in the month of March
EDGE Analysis
Boedker is actually right in line with his standard point totals for the season, but his March slump is not a positive sign given that it's also come with reduced ice time following the Senators' unloading at the trade deadline. Given that he's not producing and is a total anchor on your plus-minus numbers, it's best to look elsewhere right now.
