From the Sens official website

OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators issued the following statement on the death today of 14-year-old Daron Richardson, youngest daughter of Senators assistant coach Luke Richardson:

“The Ottawa Senators family extends its sincere condolences, thoughts and prayers to Luke, his wife, Stephanie, and their daughter, Morgan, on the passing of Daron. This is a great tragedy for the Richardsons, their family and friends. The club will offer all the support it can to Luke and his family.”
