Ottawa senators receive Travis Hamonic from Vancouver

The Ottawa senators strengthened the blueprint on the eve of the NHL trade deadline.

The senators bought defender Travis Hamonic from the Vancouver Canucks. In contrast, the Senators sent a third-round draft pick this summer NHL draft to Vancouver.

Hamonic was a second-round draft pick in the 2008 NHL entry draft by the New York Islanders. He has three goals and four assists in 24 games this season.

Hamonic played with the Islanders, Calgary and Vancouver during his 699 games in the NHL.

The trade comes just days after star defender Thomas Chabot was injured against the Columbus Blue Jackets. The senators said Chabot had a broken hand, and will likely be out for the rest of the season.
