Sens captain Brady Tkachuk officially on the trade block per insider
Brady Tkachuk was named the youngest ever captain of the Ottawa Senators a few seasons ago, but it now appears his time may be coming to an end.
Per NHL insider Jeremy Rutherford, Brady Tkachuk is involved in trade talks, and this isn't the first time this rumour has dispersed. Having not made the playoffs since Tkachuk was named captain, and clearly needing new blood, it seems that the son of Keith Tkachuk and brother of Matthew Tkachuk is done with the Ottawa Senators.
Well, #GoSensGo Brady Tkachuk's name is going around in trade talks, according to Jeremy Rutherford.
Buckle up.
Unsurprisingly, the St-Louis Blues have been brought up as a top fit, both for their tendency to acquire players in their mid-20s for a rebuild, and because Brady is the son of Blues legend Keith Tkachuk.
It sounds like there is real smoke behind a Brady Tkachuk trade this offseason, with the St. Louis Blues being listed as a potential fit.
As per, Jeremy Rutherford.

When there's smoke there's fire, so don't be shocked if Brady Tkachuk changes teams this off-season -- it worked for his brother!
