Blunden secured a one-year contract with HC Bolzano (EBEL).

EDGE Analysis

Since being drafted by the Blackhawks with the 43rd overall pick of the 2005 NHL Draft, Blunden has split time between the NHL and AHL for the past 13 seasons. Despite decent minor-league numbers (45 points in 112 games), the winger only saw action in three games for Ottawa over the past two years. The Toronto native will now head overseas to continue his professional career.

Blunden was reassigned to AHL Belleville on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden drew into one game for the Senators in his time with the team this season, but failed to make an impact on the box score. He doesn't have a lengthy record of service time at the top level and it's fairly safe to say he's unlikely to enter the fantasy conversation, given his current career path.

Blunden was recalled to Ottawa on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

This is strictly a depth move for the Senators, as Mark Stone (knee), Derick Brassard (undisclosed) and Nate Thompson (lower body) will not play against Nashville. Blunden hasn't produced anything in two appearances this year for Ottawa, making him all but irrelevant in terms of fantasy, unless you really need to gamble with a cheap option in a daily situation.

Blunden was reassigned to AHL Binghamton on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden was ticketed back to the minors with Mike Hoffman returning from a lower-body injury to play the last two games, in addition to the Senators acquiring Alex Burrows from Vancouver in an early trade Monday. Blunden has made a habit of shuffling between an organization's ranks each season, making him rather useless in the fantasy realm.

Blunden was promoted to the Senators from AHL Binghamton on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

It's always interesting to see which players an organization turns to when injuries strike. Blunden enters the picture as a 30-year-old journeyman with only 125 NHL games under his belt. Still, the parent club is dealing with maladies to power-play weapons Mike Hoffman (lower body) and Mark Stone (neck), so the extra depth is vital.

Blunden was sent down to AHL Binghamton on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden was aggressive in his season debut Wednesday, racking up five hits in just 9:37 of ice time. He's very much an organizational depth option, having appeared in a mere 125 NHL games over parts of nine seasons and running.

Blunden was recalled from the minors Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden has yet to make his Senators debut after signing with the club during the offseason. The 29-year-old has registered three goals and one assist in his first nine AHL games. It is unclear if the winger will slot into the lineup against Buffalo on Wednesday, but even if he does, his lack of production in the majors makes him a risky fantasy option.

Blunden was assigned to AHL Binghamton on Wednesday, Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden will have to officially go through waivers Thursday in order to be sent down. It's not an overly surprising move by the Sens, but disappointing for the 29-year-old. The winger has struggled to find a home over the span of his career, appearing with Chicago, Columbus, Montreal and Tampa Bay over nine years.

Blunden signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Senators on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden appeared in 20 games with the Lightning last season, notching five points (three goals, two assists) while averaging just 8:39 of ice time. The 6-foot-4 winger also appeared in 49 games with Tampa Bay's AHL affiliate in 2015-16, tallying a respectable 38 points (21 goals, 17 assists) over that span. The 2005 second-round pick will likely once again split time between the AHL and NHL with his new club in 2016-17.

Blunden (upper body) participated in line rushes during pregame warmups, indicating he'll return to Tampa Bay's lineup for Tuesday's Game 3 against the Islanders, NHL.com's Bryan Burns reports.

EDGE Analysis

Blunden averaged a mere 5:56 of ice time over five games during the Lightning's first-round series against Detroit, severely limiting his value in daily contests and playoff pools. The veteran winger will slot into a bottom-six role Tuesday, skating alongside Jonathan Marchessault and Vladislav Namestnikov on Tampa Bay's fourth line.
