Paul had a career high 11 goals and seven assists in 59 games for the Senators this year. 

Reports say Paul and the Senators were unable to reach an agreement on a contact extension.

Joseph had eight goals and 10 assists in 58 games for the Lightning this season.   Joseph was drafted in the fourth round of the 2015 draft by Lightning.

Joseph is an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season.

Earlier in the day, the Senators acquired Travis Hamonic from the Vancouver Canucks.
