Top 25 Under 25, no. 4: Jakob Silfverberg
Jakob Silfverberg looked like he was ready for NHL action last season, but elected to return to Sweden for another year. It looks to have been a wise decision.
Top 25 Under 25, no. 5: Jared Cowen
Gone but certainly not forgotten, Jared Cowen won't suit up for the Ottawa Senators this season and he will be sorely missed. He is already one of the best defencemen on this team, and he just turned 22.
Top 25 Under 25, no. 6: Mika Zibanejad

Top 25 Under 25, no. 14: Shane Prince
Another in a line of undersized skilled forwards, and another in a line of players plucked from the Senators backyard, Shane Prince looks to have a bright future with the Senators.
Top 25 Under 25, no. 15: Mike Hoffman

Top 25 Under 25, no. 16: Andre Petersson
Andre Petersson can score goals. He can put up points. He's already made his NHL debut, and he was only 5 points shy of leading the Binghamton Senators in points last season. But his 2012-13 has been a bit of a disaster.
Top 25 Under 25, no. 17: Jean-Gabriel Pageau
Jean-Gabriel Pageau was taken in the fourth round by the Senators back in the 2011 draft and has already made the jump to the AHL. The bigger question is what's to come.
