Leclaire Goes to Ottawa, Vermette Sent to Columbus
The Ottawa Senators have acquired goaltender, Pascal Leclaire, from the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for left wing, Antoine Vermette.
I think this could be good for the Sens. Despite the fact that 26-year-old Leclaire has had some ankle problems this season (which caused his GAA and sv % to tank), he is a good goalie and could be just what Ottawa needs at this point.
Vermette, also 26 years old, should be a great addition to Columbus’ offensive lineup. He’s great on the face-off (58.4% this season) and he’s fast.
