The Ottawa Senators have traded forward Derick Brassard to the Pittsburgh Penguins, Sportsnet has confirmed.
The full details of the transaction are unknown at this time.
Brassard, 30, has a salary cap hit of $5 million and is set to become an unrestricted free agent following the 2018-19 campaign. He is owed only $3.5 million in actual dollars over the final two years of his contract yet the Senators are still expected to retain a portion of Brassard's remaining salary as part of the deal.
The centre has registered 18 goals and 20 assists in 58 games this season, his second year with the Senators after being acquired from the New York Rangers as part of the Mika Zibanejad trade in 2016.
Senators general manager Pierre Dorion has been busy this month, sending Dion Phaneuf and Nate Thompson to the Los Angeles Kings for Marian Gaborik and Nick Shore.
Teams have until Feb. 26 at 3 p.m. ET to complete any trades.
