Casey Bailey, Matt O'Connor, and Ryan Rupert were also among the cuts, while 33 players remain on the camp roster.

Sieloff made headlines in September after he leveled Clarke MacArthur with a heavy hit in a scrimmage, leaving the veteran winger concussed. MacArthur missed all but four games last season, sidelined with post-concussion symptoms.

The Senators acquired Sieloff from Calgary in a June deal that sent right winger Alex Chiasson to the Flames.
