“The Ottawa Senators organization is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of John Muckler. John had the heart of a champion, was a consummate professional and a beloved family man. For years, the Senators were perennial Stanley Cup contenders because of John’s dedication and leadership. On behalf of myself and the entire Senators organization, I want to express our sincerest condolences to John’s family, friends and all those whose lives he touched in the hockey community.”
