Senators split with assistant GM Trent Mann

The Ottawa Senators parted ways with assistant general manager Trent Mann on Wednesday.

"We're thankful for Trent's contributions to the Senators and wish him the best going forward," general manager Pierre Dorion said in a brief statement announcing the decision.

Mann joined the organization in 2010 as a part-time amateur scout and began working with the team on a full-time basis in 2014. He was promoted to chief amateur scout in 2016 and was named assistant GM last summer.

His older brother, Troy, was fired from his post as head coach of the Senators' AHL affiliate in February after he reportedly gave some of the team's pre-scouting material to another NHL club.
