Ottawa management announce another trade. This time with the Vancouver Canucks.
Traded to VAN C Derick Brassard, $5.5m (2014-2018)
age 27 (turns 28 September 2015)
Traded to OTT RW Marian Hossa, $5.3m (2010-2018)
age 36 (turns 37 January 2016)
Sens management feel this is a straight forward trade where we are adding a wily veteran winger in Hossa and dealing a young veteran Center in Brassard. Salaries are comparable. We believe scoring offsets the age difference.
