Charles LeClaire-USA TODAY Sports / USA TODAY Sports
While most of the hockey world goes nuts over the potential of Senators captain Erik Karlsson getting shipped out of town, another Ottawa player is reportedly garnering a lot of attention.
Senators pivot Derick Brassard is being targeted by as many as seven teams, including the Columbus Blue Jackets, Winnipeg Jets, Pittsburgh Penguins, and St. Louis Blues, according to Aaron Portzline of The Athletic.
Brassard is an experienced centerman with legit goal-scoring ability. His playoff point production - 55 points in 78 games - and toughness would be a solid deadline addition to any postseason-bound club.
Through 58 games this campaign, he has notched 18 goals and 20 assists in 18:21 of ice time per night.
