The veteran proves the team is in a \"win now\" mentality, with the Sens essentially giving up on 23-year-old Mika Zibanejad, who has, to-date, failed to break out. The 2006 No. 6 pick isn't going to blow up in the box score, but he provides a healthy center on the second line with the ability to dish the puck to the wings, or find twine himself. In 2015-16, Brassard took a giant leap forward, lighting the lamp a career-high 27 times, adding 31 assists to the tune of a plus-12 rating. If the Senators see a repeat next season -- or an improvement -- they'll call this trade a victory, as the 28-year-old provides stability in the top six and should have no issues producing with Mike Hoffman and Bobby Ryan flanking him. The second line of the Senators could very well be the most explosive on the team, which should have owners jumping at the gates come Draft Day.
