by Sean O'Leary from on (#3W4W2)
Ottawa Senators blue-liner Cody Ceci has been awarded a one-year, $4.3-million deal in arbitration, the team announced Friday.
He'll once again be a restricted free agent with arbitration rights at the conclusion of the 2018-19 season, per CapFriendly.
Ceci's initial ask was $6 million, while the Senators countered with $3.35 million. Ottawa also locked down restricted free agent Mark Stone earlier Friday prior to his arbitration hearing with a one-year deal worth $7.35 million.
Ceci was drafted 15th overall by the Senators in 2012, and he recorded five goals and 14 assists in 82 games last season.
