OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators have officially taken a step toward the possibility of a new downtown arena.
Senators Sports & Entertainment confirmed in a statement Tuesday that it will make a submission to the National Capital Commission concerning the redevelopment of land in the LeBreton Flats area.
The parcel of land in question is on the Ottawa River, just southwest of Parliament Hill.
The Senators have played at the Canadian Tire Centre in the west-end neighbourhood of Kanata since 1996.
