Former Senators goalie Andrew Hammond retires

Goaltender Andrew Hammond announced his retirement from professional hockey Monday following a 10-year career.

Hammond was sensational with the Ottawa Senators during the 2014-15 campaign. He posted a 20-1-2 record and a .941 save percentage to help the Senators earn an unlikely playoff berth and became affectionately known as "the Hamburglar."

The Senators traded Hammond to the Colorado Avalanche after a five-year stint in the Ottawa organization as part of the deal for Matt Duchene. Hammond replaced the injured Jonathan Bernier in Colorado's first-round series against the Nashville Predators during the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs, making 44 saves in the Avalanche's Game 5 win before the team was eliminated in Game 6.

Hammond made an unexpected return to the NHL last season, appearing in 11 games split between the Montreal Canadiens and New Jersey Devils.

The 34-year-old suited up for two contests with the KHL's Traktor Chelyabinsk in October. He cited an ankle injury sustained with Montreal as the reason for his retirement.

Hammond posted a 31-20-7 record with a .916 save percentage in 67 career NHL games.
