The reconstruction of the Ottawa Senators' blue line may still be a work in progress.
Senators general manager Pierre Dorion confirmed Sunday that the team is still considering options in unrestricted free agency, naming veteran defensemen Kris Russell and Dennis Seidenberg as possibilities.
Dorion did not indicate whether he would prefer to sign or invite either player to training camp on a professional tryout.
Russell, 29, split last season between the Calgary Flames and Dallas Stars, scoring 19 points in 62 games.
Seidenberg spent last season with the Boston Bruins before his contract was bought out in June. The 35-year-old is currently competing with Team Europe at the World Cup.
The Senators blue line saw a shakeup over the offseason, following the retirement of veteran blue-liner Chris Phillips. More recently, the team invited Matt Bartkowski to training camp on a PTO. Bartkowski, 28, spent last season with the Vancouver Canucks, scoring 18 points in 80 games.
