The Derick Brassard deal is reportedly getting a makeover.
It's now being reworked as a three-team trade between the Ottawa Senators, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Vegas Golden Knights, according to TSN's Darren Dreger.
The clubs are still ironing out wrinkles in the transaction, which was first reported by Dreger as a two-way swap between the Senators and Penguins earlier Friday.
Ottawa originally agreed to send Brassard to the Penguins for defenseman Ian Cole, goaltender Filip Gustavsson, and a 2018 first-round pick, but the two clubs then expanded it to a three-way deal before the NHL told them it needed to be tweaked.
