The 1933–34 Ottawa Senators season was the team's 16th and last season in the NHL, and 48th season of play overall. Before the season, the Sens replaced Cy Denneny and head coach and hired former defenceman Buck Boucher to take his place. Ottawa born player Syd Howe was named captain of the team. Cooney Weiland, who led the team in scoring the previous season, would hold out, but was eventually signed, and scored only 2 goals in 9 games before the Senators sent him to the Detroit Red Wings for Carl Voss.

The Senators would be led offensively by Earl Roche, who had a team high 29 points, his brother Desse Roche would score a team high 14 goals, while Max Kaminsky would put up a team high 17 assists.

Bill Beveridge would take over the Senators goaltending duties, winning 13 games, while posting 3 shutouts and a 2.86 GAA. In the Senators last game of the season at home, against the New York Americans, Americans goalie Roy Worters was injured and not able to play after the 1st period. The Senators let New York use Alec Connell, who was the Senators backup that had not played a minute all season long, and Connell would play well enough to defeat the Senators 3–2.

The last game of the original era was a 2–2 draw against the Montreal Maroons at the Montreal Forum. After the season, the Senators announced that the NHL franchise would relocate to St. Louis, Missouri where they would become the St. Louis Eagles, after 16 seasons in the NHL. To fill the Auditorium, there would be a Senators club in the Ottawa City League and Quebec senior leagues, playing local and Quebec opponents until 1954. Ottawa would not have an NHL team again until 1992, 58 years later.
