Addison, who has been a regular in the NHL for the past two seasons with the Minnesota Wild and San Jose Sharks, was unable to surpass other right-shot defensemen on the Senators' roster.
Despite being just 24, Addison was unable to secure a place on the Senators' roster, as GM Steve Staios is rebalancing the team's defense core.
He’s an offensive defenceman who's not a shutdown guy or highly physical, which contradicts Staios' strategy of preferring bigger-bodied defensemen.
Addison, regarded for leading all first-year NHL defencemen in points per game as rookie in Minnesota, couldn't maintain his momentum in his sophomore season.
