The 1926–27 Ottawa Senators season was the club's 10th season of play in the NHL, 42nd overall. The league would expand by 3 teams, as the Chicago Black Hawks, Detroit Cougars and New York Rangers would all join the league to make it a 10 team league. The NHL also would divide the 10 teams into 2 divisions, and the Senators found themselves in the Canadian Division. This was also the first season that the Stanley Cup was awarded to the champion of the NHL.

Prior to the start of the season, the Senators relieved head coach Alex Currie from his duties as General Manager Dave Gill would step behind the bench and become the head coach. The Senators would then go on to win 30 games and earn 64 points, both the highest in the NHL and capture the Prince of Wales Trophy, win the Canadian Division title, and earn a bye in the opening round of the playoffs. Also, Buck Boucher would take over the team captaincy from Cy Denneny.

Denneny would go on to lead the club once again offensively, scoring 17 goals and 23 points, while Hooley Smith would have a team record 125 penalty minutes. Alec Connell would lead the NHL in wins (30) and be among the league leaders in GAA (1.49) and shutouts (13).

The Montreal Canadiens would defeat their cross town rivals, the Montreal Maroons and face the Senators in a 2 game total goal series, and Ottawa would win it by a score of 5–1, and match up against the Boston Bruins in the Stanley Cup Finals.

Led by Cy Denneny and Alec Connell, the Senators would win a tough 4 game series over the Bruins, winning the Stanley Cup for the 4th time in 7 years, and 9th overall including the pre-NHL years.
